The surprise announcement, which followed a series of secret meetings between North and South Korean officials, was made in a joint communique issued simultaneously in Pyongyang and Seoul. The two countries, which have been divided since the end of the Second World War, decided to establish a joint co-ordinating committee to implement the accord and to install a direct Seoul Pyongyang telephone link to deal directly, promptly and accurately with problems arising between them. The secret negotiations were conducted by Lee Hu Rak, director of the South Korean Central Intelligence Agency, and Kim Young Joo, director of the North Korean Organization and Guidance Department. Kim is a younger brother of North Korean Premier Kim II Sung.

UN Secretary General Kurt Waldheim played the role of a secret intermediary and today he expressed satisfaction over the accord. Nixon administration officials in Washington said they have been kept informed about the negotiations, which took place in Pyongyang from May 2 to 5 and in Seoul from May 29 to June 1. U.S. State Department spokesman Charles Bray said the agreement was most encouraging and could have a salutary impact on prospects for peace and stability on the Korean peninsula. The announcement follows reconciliation moves by the two Koreas.

Their Red Cross officials last August began talks aimed at reuniting some 10 million Korean families, separated by the peninsula's post-war division into two states and the subsequent Korean war. The communique said the two sides have REYKJAVIK, Iceland Russian chess champion Boris Spassky today filed a formal protest against U.S. Challenger Bobby Fischer and walked out on a meeting set to determine who would get the first move in the opening game of the scheduled title bout. The president of the International Chess Federation (FIDE) said he was "pessimistic" the match be held. "The situation is critical.

I don't know- if the match will be played at all. I am very pessimistic," said FIDE president Dr. Max Euwe. Spassky, who has been waiting in Iceland for more than one week for the match which was scheduled to start Sunday, filed a formal protest in Russian against Fischer's late arrival and walked out of a meeting where lots were to be drawn to see who had the first move. Fischer, who finally agreed to play Spassky after a British banker said he would double the prize money, did not attend the meeting.

He stayed in his room to sleep to get ready for the match, scheduled to start at 1 p.m. EDT, and sent his seconds, the Rev. William Lom-bardi and two lawyers, Paul Marshall and Andrew Davis. Lothar Schmid, the official arbiter of the match, said he would need a translation of the Soviet protest before he could act upon it. "What happened was that Spassky lodged a protest against the fact that Fischer did not arrive in time Sunday and he walked out of the meeting," Euwe said.

The match postponed for two days while Fischer haggled for more money. He agreed to play after the British banker said he would double the prize money and Fischer boarded an Icelandic Airline flight from New York Monday night. The flight was See SPASSKY Page 2 Photo by Jcck Daigleish Mayor Frank and City Manager John Steel have it out vvitii protecting citizens A principles for following agreed to the coois citizen protest JL By HARRY VAN VUGT A demonstration, organized this morning by the East Windsor Citizens Organization, turned into a heated debate between marchers on one side and City Manager John Steel and Mayor Frank H'ansbrough on the other. The demonstrators said they were protesting because they had been promised that the recreational facilities of the Holy Rosary Educational and Recreational Centre would have opened as long ago as May 1 and that it still wasn't open. City officials, on the other hand, said they already knew on Friday that the complex would be opening on Wednesday so that the demonstration was completely unnecessary.

reunification: it shall be achieved through independent Korean efforts without external interference. it shall be by peaceful means. a great national unity shall be sought above all transcending differences in ideas, ideologies and systems. To achieve these goals, the two Koreas pledged to refrain from conducting acrimonious propaganda compaigns against each other and to take positive measures to prevent inadver-tant military incidents. American officials compared the accord to rapprochement efforts between East and West Germany.

U.S. Secretary of State William P. Rogers pablicly linked these problems last week by expressing the hope that the Soviet-American summit could aid the transition to more normal relations among countries divided by the cold war. The Korean accord is in many ways a byproduct of President Nixon's negotiations See TWO KOREAS Page 2 The placard-carrying demonstrators, marching outside the complex on Drouillard Road. disbanded quietly after Mayor Wansbrough and City Manager Steel arrived and.

Before the demonstration. Mrs. Latouf said it was planned to hold the demonstration for ''two or three hours anyway today and we'll continue if the contracts aren't signed.7' She said her information was that the city and separate school board "can't seem to come to an agreement on the insurance contract" and "because of the difference the people in the community can't use it (complex)." "Our kids have played on the street all the time. We're tired of them playing on the street." she said. "There is not too much that we can do.

We have very limited facilities. The only place for them would be back to the streets," she added. "They (the people in the area are expecting something and they're getting nothing," continued Mrs. Latouf.

French authorities, faced with the world-wide outcry against the test series have refused to comment and so far they have not confirmed the first blast. According to reports the third blast cannot be expected until the latter part of July. The apparent interruption in the series was signalled by the return to Papeete of three of the campaign's logistical support vessels.

However, labor department sources in Ottawa said there was little chance of any alterations being made as the proposals had been submitted as a package to be accepted or rejected in total.

ILA president Jean-Marc St. Onge said about 1.500 longshoremen at a Montreal meeting this morning gave him a mandate to return the proposals with certain modifications. No details of the modifications were available. The Ottawa labor department sources said longshoremen in Trois-Rivieres had accepted the package. Union members in Quebec were reported still meeting about three hours after they began consideration of the proposals.

Today's meetings follow separate talks during the weekend and Monday by the two federal labor troubleshooters and representatives of the union and the Maritime Employers Association. Bernard Wilson, deputy labor minister, talked to reporters Monday before returning to Ot tawa where Parliament's summer recess has been delayed because of the strike. He said the government will wait for the longshoremen's answer to the latest proposals before seeking a possible legislated end to the strike in Parliament. The proposals, he said, involve certain return-to-work arrangements and include lifting an employers' suspension against the strikers. Brian Mulroney, lawyer for the employers' association, said later the key recommendation by the labor department officials concerned a date for phasing in of a job or income security plan negotiated in a collective agreement with the longshoremen in March.

Spence rumors still at odds (See Also Page 13) BELFAST Rumors and counter-rumors are still flying concerning the whereabouts of the abducted Protestant murderer Augustus 'Gusty' Spence. The latest rumor comes from the Belfast Telegraph, which says Spence may have been flown to Canada from nearby Aldergrove Airport Sunday night. Earlier, a report carried by The Associated Press quoted a usually-reliable source as saying Spence had been flown to Montreal via Prestwick airport in Scotland Monday. And in yet another explanation of the mystery a Royal Ulster Constabulary spokesman said his organizaton had "no information that he (Spence) may be outside Northern Ireland." The Telegraph report says police are checking the passenger list of a chartered plane which left Aldergrove at about 7 p.m. Belfast time 2 p.m.

SAIGON. (LTD A 30-man South Vietnamese reconnaissance team landed by helicopter in the centre of Quang Tri city today, paving the way for a government move to recapture the provincial capital held by the Communists for more than two months. Military sources said the team met only light resistance. A South Vietnamese force moved into the suburb of Mai Linh only one-half mile away earlier in the day and also reported only light resistance. Another small force also moved unopposed into Quang Tri combat base two miles northwest of the city.

The base is the former home of the U. S. 1st Brigade, 5th Mechanized Infantry Division. It was turned over to the South Vietnamese one year ago. Despite the apparent disappearance of Communist troops, U.
