Playing chess is not like' playing soccer. You have to be in perfect harmony to get the best out of your poor brain." The.third and fourth games, both exciting to chess buffs after a disastrous opening game for Fischer and the forfeited second game, brought back enthusiasm in Iceland, a chess-happy nation.

Marks, local Bell Telephone manager, said today that Bell employes here reacted quickly and courageously during the recent flood emergency to keep vital communications links open. "During the initial phase of the flood," Marks explained, "ail available resources were employed to provide service in the face of unprecedented demand. "We worked all day to keep 'Lebanon County going by installing an emergency network for community and government agencies.

These included the National Guard, city police and fire units, Lebanon Daily News, WLBR, the Red Cross, and the Water Bureau." Marks called the first few days of the disaster "the county's greatest moment of need the need for people to communicate and help each other, to locate friends and loved ones. This is what the telephone business is all about," he said. Marks said that Bell's flood costs will top $350,000 in Lebanon County. He said the company has implemented a vast rebuilding program which is expected to provide improved telephone service in the years to come. "Our crews already have invested 8,000 man hours on restoration work including the complete replacement of 73 complex communication systems for large businesses, destroyed by the flood," he said.

He reported that partial restoration was completed at once with all systems completely rebuilt in nine days. "We had the resources of the entire Bell System at our fingertips," he noted. Most critical of all, said Marks, was the loss of PBX switching machines at the Lebanon Daily News, Milsan Mills, WLBR, and Keystone Weaving. He calculated that the Lebanon Repair Service Bureau visited 2,500 homes in the county to repair flooded telephones and lines. Meanwhile, he said, work has begun to replace 32 miles of cable and lines which were damaged by water.

"Lebanon is a community of people helping people," Marks commented. "We have, made many new friends in the last three weeks. We at Bell are proud to be members of this courageous m- rescuing four neighbors, spent four hours trying to get them first to safety and then to shelter with their families?
