Mrs. Berning paired the 18th and when Miss Barnetts second shot was short of the 18th green, it was all over and Mrs. Berning was $6,000 richer.

Miss Barnett, who had started the day with birdies on the first two holes, lost control of her game on the easy par 3 sixth hole when she hit her tee shot into the sand trap and took a bogey four. After parring No. 7 she preceded to bogey eight, nine and 10. By CHRIS MARTIN LIKE MOST athletes and other people who are always in the publics view, Bobby Fischer is tempermental and seems to enjoy the uproar his cussedness causes. There is no doubt he is a great chess player, although its been such a long time hes even taken pawn in hand that I wonder about his ability as a genius.

The Russian world champion who faces Fischer, Boris Spassky, has shown great restraint while tournament officials and interested parties try to get Bobby back in his playpen. The latest action by the international Chess Federation, after Bobby didnt show up Sunday for the first match of the 24-game series, was to postpone the deadline for Fischers appearance to 8 a.m. EDT Tuesday. In my opinion, Spassky had every right to protest this special molly-coddling Bobby is getting, but he had not (at least not in public) shown his feelings one way or the other. Bobby Baby is reminiscent of the bonus-baby pro players who each season fail to report to training camp unless their demands are met.

By now, the routine is familiar: Contract negotiations end with the star flying off to Zanzibar or somewhere and refusing to talk business unless his wishes are approved. The club interested in the star makes some tentative offers, which are promptly branded insufficient and not made in good faith by the stars lawyers. After more haggling, the star may return to his former employer or look for another job with another club or even another league. But the problem with Bobby Baby, of course, is that he no longer has a higher pinnacle to reach. He can win the world championship by defeating Spassky, but what would the victory be worth after hes already got such a big head? By holding out for more money, Baby Bobby has taken the sedate game of chess and placed it in the sordid world of professional sports.

Bobby is no chess genius hes a baby crying for a bigger sucker. And, at 29 years of age, he doesnt realize it yet. OFFICERS IN THE BROOKLYN Womens Softball League officiated over a Weekend tournament at the Town Park. Games are played each Sunday at the park and six local teams are involved in the league. However, Saturday and games had two out of town and Edinbuig, represented.

From Shirley Moore, league treasurer; president; Doc Burton, and Druscilla Voiles, secretary. By FRED MCMANE UPI Sports Writer MAMARONECK, N. Y. (UPI) -Marriage and motherhood havent drained the golfing talents of Susan Maxwell Berning. Mrs.

Berning, one of the few married girls on the LPGA tour, may have lost some of the strength she had a few years ago when she was one of the promising newcomers on the tour, but she proved Sunday that she has lost none of her poise. Trailing by four strokes entering the final round of the USGA Womens Open golf championship, Mrs. Berning posted a one-under par 71 and overhauled third day leader Pam Barnett down the stretch to win the tournament for the second time in her nine-year pro career. Mrs. Bernings 72-hole score was 11 over par 299 over the rugged Winged Foot Country Club course, which was one stroke better than Miss Barnett, Judy Rankin and Kathy Ahem.

Miss Barnett, who had a three-stroke edge entering the final round, had a 76 Sunday, Miss Rankin posted a 73 and Miss Ahern had a 70, the low score of the tournament. Betty Burfeindt was three strokes off the pace at 302 and Gloria Ehret, four-time Open winner Mickey Wright and amateur Jane Booth were five strokes back at 301. Ever since she became Mrs. Dale Berning on May 18, 1968, the former Susie Maxwells career has blossomed. She won her first Open at Fleetwood, only months after she was married and her triumph Sunday comes 19 months after she left the tour to give birth to a daughter, Robin.

It took me a year to get my strength back after the baby, said Mrs. Berning, who plays only half the LPGA tournaments now so that she can devote more time with her family. I feel a lot stronger than I did last year but Im still not as strong as I used to be. Mrs. Berning, who travels the circuit with her husband, daughter and 17-year-old babysitter in a mobile home, was very surprised with her victory.

She had all but given up hope of winning after the first day when she had a 79. I really didnt think I had a chance to win it at all, and when I three-putted 15 today I figured any chance that I might still had I had lost, said Susie, whose round of 71 was one of only five sub-par rounds recorded in the four-day event. Susies three-putt on No. 15 had dropped her two strokes behind Miss Barnett, who was playing a pair of twosomes behind Mrs. Berning.

But when Pam also bogeyed the 15th Susie got the stroke back. After saving par on No. 16 by sinking a tricky uphill seven-foot putt, Mrs. Berning gained a tie by canning a 20-foot putt for a birdie on the dangerous 200-yard, par three 17th hole. The 17th had been the most difficult hole for the girls throughout the tournament, and so it was no surprise when Miss Horseshoe League In the seventh week in the Womens Horseshoe League, Blunks Insurance Agency took all three games from Petes Barber Shop and WCBK took all thregames from REMC.

Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation (FIDE). Fischer, 29, is hiding out in New York, apparently in a move to force the sponsors of the match to pay him more money for playing Spassky. If Fischer does not show up by noon Tuesday (8 EDT), he will be disqualified and lose his right to challenge the 35-year-old Russian. Fischer, who has kept the Icelandic organizers nervously rushing to Keflavik international airport to meet every flight from New York for a week, simply did not show up Sunday. Officially there was no explanation.

He has not been in touch with the Icelandic Chess Federation or FIDE since he sent a cable through the U.S. Chess Federation some time back saying he would show up for the match under protest.

On top of this the two players are guaranteed 30 per cent of net incomes on televisions and film rights. But Fischer wants more. He has asked the Icelandic organizers for a 30 per cent share of the gate receipts something which in the words of Icelandic Chess Federation president Gudmundur Thorarinsson would spell economic disaster for the tiny federation in a nation of only 200,000 inhabitants.

A dangerous precedent would be created if we gave in to Fischer.

He is threatening to kill the game of chess by insisting on his own conditions, said Gudmundur Einar- Bur Ion Fails Olympic Bid EUGENE, Ore. (UPI)-Larry Burton, Purdue's standout sprinting sensation, failed Saturday in his bid to gain an Olympic berth in his first official year as a trackman. Burton, who never ran organized track before the past season with the Boilermakers, posted a :10.1 clocking the 100-meter dash here Saturday and missed the finals for the event. But the crowd of sprinters with identical time of Burton read like a whos who of track with two-time Olympian Mel Pender, Steve Riddick, Harrington Jackson, Herb Washington, Ivory Crockett and James Amerison all failing to qualify for the finals with :10.1s. Ray Robinson was credited with a wind-assisted :9.9 in the event.

Had the wind been allowable and the same time posted, it would have tied a world record. Also failing in an attempt to reach the finals was Indiana University hurdler Terry Mu-sika. He placed fifth in the fast heat of the 400-meter event with a time of :50.2. Top four individuals each from two semifinals heats made the finals.

The Icelandic federation, which stands to lose much money if the match does not come off, pleaded for Fischer Sunday and convinced Euwe to postpone the start of the match 48 hours to give Fischer a last chance. But I am not very hopeful, said Euwe, the last non-Russian to hold the world title from 1935 to 1937. He is Dutch. The decision came after several rounds of closed negotiations involving Spassky, Euwe, the Icelandic organizers and Americans representing Fischer but not authorized by him to negotiate.

Spassky appeared undisturbed by the crisis surrounding his first defense of the title he won in 1969 from fellow countryman Tigran Petrosian. He was calm and relaxed in Sundays negotiations and his seconds said he was in fine spirits. The total prize money of $125,000 more than ten times was first officially rung upon nations Constitution.
