Stein said he agreed and even made out a written agreement backstage in the hall. Fischer was told via telephone that such an agreement existed, but the American did not respond, Stein said. Father William Lombardy, Fischers official second and former world junior chess champion, met newsmen who tried to get into Fischers hotel suite after the game and told them the situation is very serious.

Letter to the Editor: I would like to reply to the letter of July 10 concerning the selecting of the Little League all-stars. Im not aware of bow all the managers had their boys to select their choice for the all-stars but I know the majority of boys did not have anyone standing over them when they made their selection. Some players were given a slip of paper, an envelope, and were instructed to select four boys from the 11 and 12 year old on the team. When they finished their voting they put the selections in the envelope and no one knew who they voted for. As for the manager selecting his own son for the all-star team, it is impossible for him to do this alone.

Granted he can vote for his boy but it is going to take more than his vote to get anyone on the all-star team. It was my understanding that there were 14 boys plus the two alternates who made the ali-star team. Making a total of 16 boys selected from each division, not 12 as the letter to the editor indicated. Judith Steinway GAS OR ELECTRIC AIR CONDITIONING Wrong-way Dual-Laner Killed; State Toll Rises By United Press International Another accident involving a wrong-way driver on an inter-state highway raised Indianas 1972 traffic fatality toll today to 779 compared with 811 a year ago, following nine and possibly 10 deaths Thursday. Meade F.

Knight, 52, Indianapolis, was driving the wrong way on Interstate 69 about three miles north of the Indiana 32 interchange in Delaware County near Muncie this morning when his car smashed head-on into a truck. The truck driver, David Thomas, 29, Cleveland, was not hurt. Mrs. Aretta Newlin and Viola J. jstarkey, both of Farmers-burg, were killed Thursday in the collision of a car and a truck on U.S.

40 at Greenfield in Hancock County. They were riding in a car driven by Mrs. Newlins daughter. Marine E. Ellerthorpe, 62, Indianapolis, who was injured critically.

Gordon Fluke, 14, Corunna, was killed Thursday when he was thrown out of a car and crushed beneath it in a one-auto accident on a DeKalb County road. Jack Spreuer, 64, Howe, was killed Thursday in the collision of his motorcycle and a truck at U.S. 20 and Indiana 15 north of Goshen in Elkhart County. Norbert W. Hart, 60, Dune Acres, former Delaware County auditor at Muncie, was killed Thursday in a collision on U.S.

20 west of South Bend. Donald E. Jester, 28, Hagerstown, was killed in a car-truck collision at a Wayne County intersection three miles north of Hagerstown. Authorities said Jesters truck collided with a car in which five young persons were riding. No one was injured seriously.

Charles Raugh, 53, Jeffersonville, was killed Thursday in a one-car accident near Jeffersonville; Willie ONeil, 61, Chicago, was killed in a crash on the Northern Indiana Toll Road near South Bend, and Leon Landers, 57, Indianapolis, was killed in a one-car accident on Indiana 67 near Muncie. An autopsy was scheduled at Marion to determine whether the death of Dewey Gregg, 74, Fairmount, was due to a heart attack or traffic injuries. Greggs car ran off a Grant County road southeast of Marion and hit a tree Thursday. Gregg died six hours later, but a coroners ruling was delayed pending the autopsy. By IAN WESTERGREN REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) Bobby Fischer stayed in bed, so once again the world chess championship was in doubt.

The 29-year-old American challenger failed to show for his second game against titleholder Boris Spassky of Russia to protest television cameras in the hall where they are playing. Referee Lothar Schmid awarded the game to Spassky, putting the Russian ahead two games to zero. Fischer challenged Schmids ruling and the matter went to a committee today made up of Schmid, his deputy, representatives for the two players and the organizers. There appeared to be little chance the committee would reverse the ruling. The big question remained one that has haunted the championship almost from the beginning: Would Fischer walk out? Icelandic grandmaster Frid-rik Olafsson, an old friend of Fischer, managed to get into the suite of rooms where the challenger is staying in a downtown hotel.

He talked to me about anything else but the match, Olafsson said. He lost interest in it six months ago. Fischer dropped the first of the possible 24 games to Spassky, who needs 12 points a win counts one point, a draw one-half point to retain his title. Time for the second game came and went Thursday and Fischer did not arrive. Aides said he stayed in bed to protest the television cameras.

At the appointed time, 5 p.m., Spassky was in the hall. Promptly at 5, Schmid started the time clock. There were 60 minuttes of hushed silence while everybody waited for Fischer. Andrew Davis, one of Fischers lawyers in New York, put through a call at 5:30 p.m. when there was still 30 minutes till Fischers deadline to Richard C.

Stein, lawyer for the owner of the TV and film rights and asked Stein to remove all cameras for Thursdays game and give Davis time to fly to STICK TO HEALTH Our opinions of whats been going on in Miami lately perhaps make it advisable that we not comment on it right away. Gibberish is gibberish, and comment on gibberish is likely to be the same. So yesterday and today, weve been preoccupied with health problems. And perhaps theyre more important than politics anyway. Yesterday we suggested that cigarette smoking was harmful not only to those who enjoyed it so much, but to people around them.

Today we suggest that everybody start thinking more of everybody else around him, and if there is a problem that cries out for widespread public concern, it is the plight of the mentally ill. One of the difficulties is that we are all a part of the problem. For generations we have found it comfortable to put the mentally ill out of sight and out of mind. We have put the mental hospitals far away, and we have been a little bit frightened of someone who has had a mental illness. But fortunately this is coming to an end.

The Mental Health Association has been leading the battle in our state and in the nation to overcome not only the stigma against the mentally ill, but also the obstacles to creating treatment services so that they will be available in every community of our state. The time has come when you can make a difference. Yes, you can join the Mental Health Association. You can join with thousands of others who are trying to be a part of the solution to this problem.

Why is the bus always on time when you're going to the dentist? (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN) At Daily Motors Inc. members kept removing first one and then another from those available, leading her to comment: You really dont have many puppies to get rid of, do you? At least we have reduced the field to five, with four already placed in good homes. Dont forget your dog in this hot summer weather.

Be sure to keep plenty of water around for pets to drink. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL is charged with the duty of providing continuing education for prosecutors, and each year holds seminars in conjunction with the Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Association. The summer conference was held in Clarksville, on July 5-7. Speaker for the Thursday lunch, and moderator of the afternoon panel discussions, was James J. Clancy, chief counsel of the Citizens for Decent Literature.

The organization was formed by Cincinnati lawyer Charles H. Keating a member of the Presidential Commission which studied the nationwide problem of pornography. Keating dissented from the permissive report, has written articles attacking the conclusions, and his organization conducts a campaign to obtain public support opposing hard-core pornography. Over the years, I have been amazed at the rapid growth of adult book stores in the state as well as X-rated movies. In law school, I studied the Supreme Court decisions to try and determine in my own mind where censorship begins and what is legally obscene.

It is a difficult area and there are no easy answers, so I attended the luncheon. I am still in the dark and even more confused, but do have an idea of the trends of court decisions. I still do not know what is legally obscene, but Clancy made one point which is worthy of note. He said: For years we have been pressing the concept that before you can have a rule of constitutional law, you have to have five judges that agree in the opinion. Five agreeing in the result, but not in the opinion will not give you a rule of law.

His remarks were apt as Attorney General Theodore L. Sendak criticized the decision of the Supreme Court on the death penalty. Nine separate opinions were written, with the decision based upon morals rather than law. DOGS AND KIDS mix too well, and it is causing dissention in the White clan. Our ranch is ideal for pets, and we have seldom failed to have two or three dogs on hand.

They have free run of the woods and stay at home without being penned or chained. Preference has been for large dogs, and we have had several German shepherd police dogs, along with a few Weimaraners. Over the years, we learned the hard way that females stay at home while males wander. 1 With the death of Greta, killed by a car, we were down to one dog. Brig had been hit a couple of times on the busy highway, dislocating her hip in the last accident.

The veterinary told us that she should never have pups due to the injury. At the right time, we placed her in our kennel i made of high chain link fence topped by barbed wire. A neighbors husky found the way In the kennel, but could never find the way out, and we could not find his secret entry. Dissatisfied with the service of the first veterinary, we took her to a new one to see if an abortion or cesarean would be the best answer for the family pet. He convinced us she was able to have the pups, and in due course some ten arrived.

The four-year-old mother accidentally stepped on one the first day, killing one of the females. Three females and six males grew and are now aged enough to find homes. The mother is large for a police dog, and the father was a big husky. The pups, look like miniature panda bears, and there is an assortment of colors. Some are silver gray, a few are honey blonde, and a couple are black, all with unusual markings.

One blonde has a brown racing stripe down the back, a silver gray one has dark markings of a racoon, and the blacks have white or brown markings. My second oldest son lays a spurious claim to ownership of the mother. Now that the pups are weaned, he has decided to keep two, taking them with him upon his return to college. He is having trouble reducing his choice to that few, and is sure that he will have to breed the mother again to take care of demand from friends for the unusual combination puppies. We decided to keep one for the younger boys, but find problems in making final selection.

Pressure is mounting for us to keep at least two, and preferably three. One woman came to take one or two.
