lnWiM I Gottfle, MWey, Mart 11, WW In Belgrade- 1 DR. LAWHtNCt LAMB Lecithins Won't Eliminate Obesity Bobby Fischer U.S. Hope For Chess Title LiVi) By Lawrence Lamb, M.D. Dear Dr. Lamb I have read in two health magazines recently concerning lecithin and both state it is a soya bean product.

It is helpful in breaking up fats in the blood stream and also good for the nerves. This conflicts with your comment that lecithin Is an unsaturated fat found in egg yolk and brain. Your advice was to forget it. Arc there different kinds of lecithin? Is this soya bean product advisable? My husband Is 30 pounds overweight and has a cholesterol problem. He's always tired and every time he lifts a finger he puffs.

He has tried many diets to no avail. When tensions mount especially at work he heads for the slot machine for food. He thought perhaps this lecithin would help to break up some of the fats. I am really concerned about my husband. I've watched the food here tit home, but it's his habits at work and also weekends that are doing the damage.

What's your comment? Dear Reader There are a variety of substances of similar chemical composition to the lecithin found in egg yolks and brain that are grouped with the lecithins. The compound you mention is probably one (an unsatu- EARTH MOVtK Gl operates bull-dozer at newly-opened Firebase Bunker Hill, about 25 miles northeast of Soigon, as U.S. 1st Air Cavalry Division worked on fortifications.

He asked the mailre d'hotel how much he should tip. When left to decide for himself, he gave the man $100 and said to spread it around to the others. He got $55 back.

"He's a gentle boy." says the maitre d'. "If the conversation lags, he gets up and says 'See He makes very few concessions to the social amenities, which is refreshing in this day." says a hotel employee. His regimen is simple and private. He does physical fit- ness exercises in his room, but doesn't work out at the hotel health club. He swims but usually when no one else is around.

He's polite when guests come to say hello but keeps to himself. He, says skiing is too much trouble, but he plays table tennis, bowls and goes to the movies occasionally. He often enters the Olympic size indoor pool at the last hour. "He's got it down to a science, like everything else he does. The pool closes at 6:15.

He waits until 6:05. He swims three or four laps and leaves," says- life guurd Eddie Torres. Fischer also is the last one out of the men's health club. "He's always in a corner, to himself." says Mike Farcus at the club, adding that Fischer can be a sore loser at table tennis, slamming down his racket when he losses. "It's usually 2 p.m.

Unfortunately, none of the polyunsaturated fats, or vitamins eliminate obesity. Only two things work, eating fewer calories or using more by activity. In some cases polyunsaturated fats like corn oil and safflower oil lower cholesterol. Fish oil frequently is even more effective. However, they are often useless unless the person controls obesity.

I am skeptical that any dietary procedure will work if the body fat Is not controlled. Don count on lechithin to do that. Technically, lecithin is a "phospholipid" an unsaturated fat containing phosphorous. It has been suggested that individuals with increased phospholipids in the blood have less fatty-cholesterol deposits in the arteries. This is where the idea comes from that leci thin "breaks up fats." Even if this is true there is no evidence that eating phospholipids will produce a favorable effect unless obesity is corrected.

Often the husband's "away from home" habits defeat the wife's efforts to help him control his weight. Preventing obesity is something each person must do for himself. Even so, the right eating habils at home do help. Perhaps you can en- $250 A WEI HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) it going.

Brother Coll?" asks a young black man stepping from a small restaurant in Hartford's north-side ghetto. "Pretty good, brother." nods a young white man. disappearing into a shabby building with the words "Revitali-zation Corps" handwritten across the window. There is nothing fancy about the three-room office of Edward "Ned" T. Coll.

32. the corps founder-director who recently polled 244 votes in the New Hampshire Democratic presidential primary. A picture of Martin Luther King and the inaugural address of John F. Kennedy hang from a bare wall. Some old desks, folding chairs, a coat rack, pile of used clothing and a bulletin board help fill space.

Black youths playing in the neighborhood dart in and out of the office. While a young female volunteer from California answers the constantly ringing phone, another worker describes the success of a corps program last summer in which ghetto kids stayed with white middle-class families for a weekend in the Hartford suburbs. This is the headquarters of the RevKalization Corps, what some people call America's citizen peace corps. It resembles the federal government's VISTA program except that it's privately funded, much of it through $5 and $10 donations. Recently it received a $150,000 grant from the Rockefeller Foundation.

Coll is known as Brother Coll by many in the sprawling ghetto in the insurance capital of the nation. The idea for the corps began in November 1963 when President Kennedy was slain in Dallas. Stunned by the assassination. Coll attended the funeral in Washington and on the way back kept mulling over a way to answer Kennedy's inaugural challenge: "Ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country." His conclusion was somewhat hazy to try and bring blacks and whites together. Determined to carry out his goal.

Coll left his job as a junior executive with a Hartford insurance company in 1964 and determined to carry out his goal. Coll left his job as a junior executive with a Hartford insurance company in 1964 and with $1,100 in savings rented a storefront office with a telehone. He took an ad in the local newspaper reading: "Volunteers to serve in local-style peace corps type program. All ages. Serve three hours a week.

Project dedicated to J.F.K." Slowly the volunteers began trickling in. Almost eight years later the corps is alive and well. There are chapters in Red Bank and Newark. N.J.. Des Moines.

Iowa: Watts. New Haven. and Harlem in New York City. Some 5.000 volunteers include truck drivers, nuns, longhairs. hard-hats, housewives and college students.

Corps Projects include: "Operation Bridge" in which volunteers spend at least three hours a week tutoring ghetto children in reading and other subjects. "A Choice" which housewives pick up welfare mothers twice a month and driving them to suburban markets where prices are lower. "A Winter in the City" campaign with the Connecticut state police to collect 100 tons of clothing, furniture, appliances and canned food. The corps also transports wives and relatives of prisoners for prison visits, has a speakers program to explain the corps, collects toys at Christmas and arranges cultural field trips. "There's no end to the number of programs we can undertake." says Coll.

Coll credentials include a degree with honors from Fairfield University. In 1970 the U.S. Jaycees selected him as one of the 10 outstanding young men in America. The purpose of the corps, says Coll. is to wage "a war on apathy" in America.

"We are not going to solve our problems by mere criticism or by a defense." he says. "We will only solve tuem by an offense. The enemy is not racism near as much as stagnation." Coll believes that Americans can work together bridging social and racial gaps. "I've found people all over the country willing to help." he says. That includes everyone from 'Wallace-ites to Panthers, from the longhairs to the hardhats.

from the conservative bishop to the liberal nun, from the disenchanted student to the overenchanted social chairman." Coll has been called everything from honky to pimp, as well as pig. nigger-lover, dogooder and Communist. GROSSINGER. Y. 1AP1 Bobby Fischer.

America's hope tor the world chess championship, rushed into the vast, brightly lit dining room at Grossinger's. a giant resort tucked away in the Catskills. He's been ensconsed for three weeks at the hotel, a sprawling cluster of recreational facilities, ping pong tables, pin ball machines, Pepsi dispensers, indoor miniature golf courses, swimming pool, ski slope and convention rooms. At age 29. he's poised for a crack at the world title in chess, a goal since the beginning of his brilliant, but uneven, career.

"What time is It?" he asked sitting down at a small table. He was pale and his eves were darker looking than usual. His hair was damp and neatly-combed. He wore a blue suit and black tie. printed with galloping red stallions.

He'd made the 8 p.m. dinner deadline by one minute. "He usually comes flying in. the last person in the dining room. He's always on the run." said the dining room hostess.

If Fischer's running, it's partly from the tension. He challenges Russian Boris Spaasky for the title in a grueling 24-game match, beginning June 22. in Belgrade. Yugoslavia. The international chess world has shown extraordinary interest in this match.

Some seven countries bid for it. Usually, there are only two or three bids. Prize money for the match is set at with 72'i per cent to the winner. Fischer beat Tigian Pelro-sian. Russian ex-world champion, in the semifinals.

II he beats Spaasky he will become the first non-Russian to hold the world title in 25 years and the first official American title holder. This is it. This is the big one for a man who's grown up obsessed with the complex moves of 32 chessmen around a checkered board. Fischer usually dines alone in Grossinger's banquet hall, filled with family-size tables, fake flowers, joking conventioneers, families with sullen-looking teen-agers and bubbly children in pink crocheted outfits. "The whole theory of a hotel is a giant communal enterprise.

But Bobby remains a solitary figure." says a hotel representative. Solitude can be hard to find in this active, noisy hotel. ex-, uding "fun-time frolic and joie de vivre." A long-time meeting place for celebrities, potentates and politicians, it ca-. ters to conventions and arranges special singles weekends. But Fischer finds solitude, threading his way through a group of commercial photographers, with their blue, convention name tags.

They have gathered after dinner around the grand piano to sing. "I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now." He walks by their exhibits of complex camera equipment and past the bar where guests are busy drinking Russian vodka. When Fischer is more relaxed, he's good company-quick, funny and interested in other people. But this weekend, he wasn't giving interviews. He mostly stays in his room, saying in a soft voice.
