COLUMBIA (AP) Far- reaching legislation taking the administration of South Carolina's judicial system out from under legislative control was back in the House today after several storm days in the Senate. The Senate approved the proposed constitutional change 37-0 after amending amendments added by the House to the measure that originally was passed by the Senate. The House must now concur in the Senate amendments or reject them. The legislation, if submitted to the people in November and approved by them, would place the administration of the judicial system under the chief justice of the State Supreme Court. The office of court administrator would be created to serve under the direction of the chief justice in setting court terms in the counties and assigning judges to those with a big backlog of cases.

Sen. Richard Riley, D-Greenville, supported by more than 30 cosponsors, led the fight for most of the amendments tacked on by the Senate. They were designed to make the measure more palatable to the Senate while retaining strong features inserted by the House to take the judiciary out from under legislative control. Sen. Anthony Harris, D- Cbesterfield, pushed through one which would require that circuit judges reside in the circuits they serve.

This was a concession to small-county so- lons who feared that additional judgeships which may be created would all go to legislators from the big urban counties. Gressette authored another successful amendment to spell out that the Supreme Court could remove a circuit judge from office only for permanent "disability, not simply for "misconduct." Gressette said "misconduct" was too broad. A two-thirds vote of 31 senators was required for passage of the Riley amendments and the Greenville attorney managed by a slim margin to keep that many proponents in the chamber until the Senate adopted the amended legislation shortly before 8 p. m. The first key change was passed 32-3, with Gressette, Harris and Sen.

Ralph Casque, 0-Calhoun, dissenting. Before the debate resumed earlier in the day, Gressette, 70, issued what amounted to an apology for his part in the near-tight Friday with Sen. Hyman Rubin. D-Ricnland, 59. Rubin had objected to Gressette's blast against proponents of the measure and was advancing on him when other senators intervened.

Gressette conceded that he is 'sometimes too hard on my opposition," particularly when outnumbered. Hail Pelts Area off and entered the under part of the house where it started afire. The incident, said Busbee, occurred two years ago at a home on Banks Mill Road. City police also reported several accidents, one of which occurred today at 7 a.m. Busbee said John H.

Eubanks, 17, of 147 Newberry Aiken, was taken to Aiken County Hospital with head bruises and abrasions. Eubanks was injured when the car he was driving south on Laurens struck a tree and overturned. The car was a total loss. Another single-car accident yesterday on Highland COG New Clearinghouse and Richmond County joined with the cities of Aiken, North Augusta, New Ellenton and Salley. "It was loose then," said Sen.

Gilbert McMillan. Sen. Michael Laughlin warned that if Aiken County joined it would be a "stick hi the mud" to the COG's progress. He asked, "What it Aiken County joins and then just rolls over and plays dead?" Bitting retorted, "I hope you don't." "I hope it will be more than just an administrative organization, a lot more than that. The COG's 3-man staff will coordinate the three planning agencies on both sides of the Savannah River to avoid overlapping projects.

"I will "impose area- wide metropolitan planning on all programs," according to the COG's Work Program booklet. It will contract with the Lower Savannah and the Georgia agencies for the major studies and plans that their much larger staffs are equipped to handle. James Hammond, executive director of the Lower Savannah Commission, questioned the founding of a fourth agency in the area. Both he and the county delegation maintain that the physical barrier of the Savannah River severely limits the scope of Aiken- Richmond County collaboration in planning and pro- jects. But Bitting cited the intangible connections between the two counties as being in need of coordination.

"I'd be very surprised if no one in Aiken worked in Augusta and if you haven't got a portion of their work force in Aiken," he said. In fact, a study published by the Lower Savannah agency in May on population and economy corroborates this. It lists the number of workers who comute out of Aiken County for employment. It shows that the five other counties in the Lower Savannah Region take over 700 commuting em- ployes. But 4,398 commute "elsewhere." "Elsewhere" was defined by a Lower Savannah planner as Augusta.

He said Augusta wasn't named because the planners didn't have that data and it was "across the state line." Among those 4,398 commuters is the mayor of North Augusta, Raymond Walters. North Augusta is the focal point of the need for Aiken and Richmond County cooperation. At the same time it is the living example for some Aiken County politicians of the Augusta scheme to "take over" Aiken County. "Augusta is trying to turn North Augusta into a piece of Downtown Augusta," said Sen. Laughlin.

Last week Mayor Walters was shocked to find out that a piece of Augusta was in fact beinp relo- icated to his city without informing North Augusta. The Augusta Richmond County Commission announced it had reached agreement with two railroad companies to move railroad track across the river into North Augusta's city limits. The plan would help alleviate congestion caused by trains in downtown Augusta. North Augusta and the Georgia planners met to discuss the track move and decided the time for closer coordination of planning agencies had come. Aiken County has long conceded that North Augusta was a bedroom community of Augusta.

But this can work two ways. As observed in a land use study for North Augusta prepared by Hammond's agency, North Augusta has hopes of catching some of the overflow economic development from Augusta. On the other hand, Richmond County planners say they include North Augusta hi most of their future planning. Hammond claims Augusta is also figured in much of his agency's planning. The fourth and final part of this series on regionalism will dwell on the effects of the federal revenue sharing program and county and statewide zoning.

Park Drive, at 5:40 p.m. sent Albert Henry Peters HI, 19. to the hospital with bruises and abrasions. Busbee said, according to Officer Ben Johnson, Peters' car went out of control and hit a tree. Also reported was the theft of a tape player and tape from the car of Henry Echols, 605 Jefferson Terrace and the vandalism of Schofield High School.

Busbee said vandals entered the school and wrote on the wall of the teacher's lounge. The Aiken County Sheriff's Department reported" several thefts yesterday including the theft of in cash and $152 worth of food stamps from the home of Mrs. J. Gregory of Piriey Heights, Langley.

EFIM CALLER Asks For Reprimand Chess Play To Begin Sunday REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Bobby Fischer made a full and penitent apology to Boris Spassky today, and organizers of the world chess championship match said the two would meet for their first game Sunday night.

The organizers said it had been agreed in principle to hold the drawing tonight to determine which player would have the white pieces and with them the first move. The young American, in a letter delivered by hand this morning to the world chess champion from the Soviet Union, apologized for his "disrespectful behavier." Fischer, whose delayed arrival doubled the prize money for both him and Spassky but also started an avalanche of confusion, asked the Russian to "accept my sincerest apology."
