by pilots Is low-level flying which often enables a helicopter to fly through a danger tone before the enemy can bring the weapon to bear. Another, used with middling success, Is cutting power and allowing the helicopter to "au-toratate" toward the ground; in the current offensive the others Include long-range artillery, medium tanks and wire-guided missiles. Military sources estimate that more than a dozen U.S. aircraft and at least that many South Vietnamese helicopters and planes have been downed by Strela missiles since they appeared on the battlefield in early May. "But there are others for which the cause Is not known, and it ki entirely likely that Homer City Man On Dean's List HOMER CITY William Clendenen son of Mr.

and Mrs. William Clendenen Sr. of Homer City RD 2, has been named to the dean's list at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, where he Is majoring in blolo- some ot these also were hit by the Strela," one U.S. officer said. The only Americans known to have survived being hit by one of the missiles were two Army pilots whose helicopter gunshlp crash landed in some trees after a missile blew off Its tall boom near An Loc.

The Strela has been used most often around An Loc and along Highway 13. it was so effective there that midway through the siege of the provincial capital, U.S. helicopters quit flying in the area, and spotter planes were forced to operate at 10,000 feet, above the estimated 8.000-foot range of the missile. To cope with the threat, some U.S. helicopters are being equipped with a heart shield to deflect the heat trail which the missile picks up and follows right Into the tailpipe.

Among the tactics devised SAtQON (AP) Hanoi's introduction of i heat-seeking Soviet antiaircraft mhslle Into the Vietnam war generating considerable concern among U.S. and South Vietnamese commanders and has brought about some drastic changes In their fliers' tactics. The weapon Is the SA7, or "Strela" a Soviet missile which the North Vietnamese fire from the shoulder like a bazooka. It Is much like the U.S. Redeye missile.

The Strela is equipped with an Infrared homing device that Is attracted to the heat given off by an aircraft engine and carries a high-explosive warhead. It has proved very effective, especially against the comparatively slow hell-copters and propeller planes, officers say.

By ISAAC KASHOAN International Grandmaster The forfeit by Bobby Fischer in the second game of the world championship chess series with Boris Spassky probably signals the end of the long-awaited encounter. The dispute regarding the television cameras was the latest in a long series of 'controversies that has plagued the match organizers (or months. With a two-point deficit, it is not likely that Fischer will take his seat for the third game, set to begin in Reykjavik at p.m. Sunday.

If he does not appear, he will most likely be disqualified by the International Chess Federation, rather than go through a forefelt procedure in each game. If he does continue. Fischer will need 12Vi points of the remaining 22 games. Spassky would retain the championship with 10 additional points. The match almost came to a halt before it started on July 2.

the originally scheduled date for the first game. Fischer failed to show up. and this writer said at the time that he should have been disqualified immediately. The delay granted at the time was contrary to the terms of the match agreement. Dr.

Max Euwe of Holland, president of the International Chess Federation, admitted this at the time. The forefeit seemed equally wrong, based on the language of the agreement. No doubt there is considerable and deserved feeling against Fischer, and the officials may have determined to give him no further consideration. Fischer had the right, however, to bar the cameras if he felt they were disturbing his concentration. This was asserted today bv LL Col.
