Fischer Apologizes to Soviet Abatement Due For Wreckers The Russian decision to break off the talks earlier in the day threw serious doubts on the possibility the match would be played. This is a very bad develop ment and I am now very pessimistic about the match, Euwe said. The talks between representatives of Fischer and Spassky started Tuesday after Spassky triggered the second postponement of the scheduled 24-game series, saying Fischer had insulted him by not showing up for the pre-match ceremonies. He said he would no play until FIDE punished Fischer and Fischer personally apologized. Officials hoped the match could start Thursday.

Earlier, the official Soviet New Agency Tass criticized Fischer and said he and his backers planned to use a computer to try to win Spasskys title. Fischer, who has remained in seclusion since arriving in Reykjavik early Tuesday, apologized in a statement read by his second, the Rev. William Lombardi. The demand from the Russian chess federation followed soon after representatives of Spassky said they had broken off talks with Fischers representatives. The Soviet demand came in a telegram to Euwe and cited one paragraph of the agreement to play agned by both Fischer and Spassky in which they agreed that a player who does not turn up within one hour of the game time forfeits the game.

Euwe said the telegram arrived shortly after Fischer apologized for being late. Fischer has kept in seclusion since he arrived in Reykjavik early Tuesday. champion Spassky who I respect as a player and a man, Fischer said. If grandmaster Spassky or the Soviet people were inconvenienced or discomforted I am indeed unhappy for I had not the slightest intention of this occurring, Fischers said. Officials hoped the twice-postponed tournament could get underway Thursday but earlier representatives of both Fischer and Spassy broke off talks, casting doubts on the possibility the match would be held.

The start was postponed from last Sunday while Fischer stayed in New York, bargaining for more money. It was postponed a second time Tuesday after Spassky said Fischer insulted him by refill ing to show up to draw lots to see who got to make the first move. He demanded Fischer apologize and said FIDE must censor Fischer. Action to abate a Kettleman City wrecking yard, after the staff reported no success in getting the owners to comply with requirements affixed to a conditional use permit granted two years ago, was instituted this week by the Kings County Board of Zoning Adjustment. The board has ordered the staff to serve notice on Artis Bros, of the permit revocation proceedings and set July 17 for a hearing.

Planning Director Charles Gardner reported conditions of the permit included erecting a sight-screening fence, painting the fence and conducting all activities within the enclosure, away from public view. The wrecking yard site is at the corner of Highway 41 and General Petroleum Street in Kettleman City. Gardner said despite a number of contacts, the fence still has not been painted, derelict cars are all over the area, including the public right of way. He also reported mobile homes have been placed on the property without permits, in additional violation of the zoning ordinance. In other action by the board, approval was given for conditional use permits sought by Leonard Wells to use a mobile home as a guest residence at 10448 9V2 from L.

D. Smith to place a mobile home as a residence at 11847 Third Place, and from Kings County Public Works Department to excavate road construction material from a site south of Elder Avenue between 22nd and 23rd avenues.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) American chess challenger Bobby Fischer apologized today for delaying the start of the world championship match with Russian Boris Spassky but a demand from the Soviet chess federation threatened to cancel the 24-game series. The Russian chess group cabled Dr. Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation (FIDE), demanding that Fischer be ordered to forfeit the first game because he did not abide by an agreement which said both players must show up within one hour of the scheduled game time. If the Russians insist on this penalty I believe the whole match is off, said Euwe. We are sorry that the world championships were delayed.

The problems causing the delays were not with world Japan Leader Elected TOKYO (UPI) Kakuei Tanaka, 54, a pro-American politician who rose from farmboy to industrial magnate, was elected prime minister of Japan today to climax a hectic campaign to select a successor to Eisaku Sato. Tanaka will officially take office Thursday following his certification by the Diet (parliament). Under Japans parliamentary system, delegates of the ruling party elect a party chief who automatically assumes the post of prime minister, Tanaka was elected on the second ballot of a nationally televised special election called by the ruling Liberal Democratic party. He polled a majority of 282 votes with a total of 476 party delegates casting ballots. Tanaka beat former Foreign Minister Takeo Fukuda in a runoff made necessary because none of the original four candidates got a majority on the first ballot.

Fukuda had 190 votes. Tanaka recently introduced a radical plan to revamp Japan's industrial organization. The plan would move heavy industry out of congested urban areas in an effort to reduce the nation's growing pollution. In foreip affairs, Tanaka advocates continued close ties with the United States while trying to bring normal relations between Japan and China. Tanaka, sometimes called a computerized bulldozer" because of his decisiveness and his adroitness in mathematics, was a loyal aide to Sato, who resigned June 17 after holding office for a record seven years and eight months.

But Tanaka broke away from the retiring premier when it became known that he was not Satos choice as a successor. Sato supported Fukuda. Tanaka bowed and raised his right hand in response to a great burst of applause when he was declared the winner. I assume my responsibility for dealing with many outstanding problems confronting us, Tanaka said in a short speech of acceptance. U.S.

Family Practices Blamed for Drug JOHNSONDALE (UPI) -Firefighters were kept busy from Yosemite National Park south to Kern County Tuesday battling several blazes. There were two fires in Kern County, one in Tulare County, two in Fresno County and one in Yosemite. Don Hanson, fire information officer for the Sequoia National Forest, reported today that a 110-acre blaze three miles north of Johnsondale in the rugged Kern River Canyon was contained.

About 185 men were on that blaze which was touched off Monday by an unattended campfire. Another 40 men are still on mop-up and standby operations at that blaze in the Dome Lands Wilderness. That fire broke out last Friday and was controlled Monday evening, tt also was caused by an unattended campfire. Hanson said crews enroute to the Johnsondale fire from the Dome Lands fire passed through Kernville Tuesday afternoon at just the right time. The quickly controlled a five-acre blaze which threatened some structures near the Kern County city.

That fire was attributed to spontaneous combustion. In Fresno County there is a fire six miles northwest of Lake Edison at the 8,500 foot level Sierra National Forest spokesman Reed Seely said the 15-acre blaze was pretty well contained but not controlled. The fire broke out Tuesday afternoon and was believed to be man-caused. Five air tankers and 30 men are on that blaze. A one-acre blaze near the Fresno County mountain community of Pinehurst was spotted by the air tankers Tuesday afternoon and quickly controlled.

It was attributed to Would-Be Hijacker Stabs Two BUFFALO, N. Y. (UPI) A 23-year-old man stabbed two persons including his estranged wife today, then boarded an empty airliner with his 14-month-old daughter in his arms and threatened to hijack it, police and FBI agents said. Three hours later he surrendered and released the little girl unharmed at the Buffalo International Airport in suburban Cheektowaga, N. Authorities said the infant, Jayton Smith, suffered a small cut on the nose but appeared otherwise uninjured.

Her clothing was spattered with blood but authorities said it was either from the cut or from tte two stabbing victims. Her mother, Mrs. Ethyl Smith, 20, of Buffalo, was in critical condition at a hospital with multiple stab wounds. Dennis Keeys, 22, also of Buffalo, was in fair condition. Police said Mrs.

Smiths husband, Charles, left a note in his mothers home indicating he was contemplating suicide following the stabbings and then drove to the airport with the little girl and boarded an empty American Airlines 707 jetliner about 5 a.m. Morn-Bugles Af- doubt that most Americans will watch the politicking on commercial video.

Televiewers, however, will not have to wait until Monday for noteworthy video events related to the convention. On Saturday, for instance, starting at 10 p.m. EDT, ABC-TV will present a live, 19-hour, celebrity-filled, fund-raising telethon by the Democratic National Committee to help solve some of die party's financial problems. Hie marathon broadcast will end on the eve of the convention. Viewers of the telethon will be asked for donations, and ABC-TV says the Democrats have "established 32 regional telephone centers, employing 10,000 telephones, to which calls can be placed by the public.

Among the more than 150 entertainment and sports personalities expected to appear on the telethon, either from Hollywood or Miami Beach, or in previously taped segments, are: Lauren Bacall, Burt Ba-charach, Warren Beatty, Milton Berle, Henry Fonda, Lome Greene, Gene Hackman, Alan King, Jack Klugman, Shirley MacLaine, Henry Mancini, Paul Newman, Goucho Marx, Car-roll O'Connor, George Plimpton, Tony Randall, Carl Reiner, Debbie Reynolds, Tommy Smcv thers, Mario Thomas, Leslie Uggams, Andy Williams, Shelley Winters and pro football players John Brodie, Dick Butkis and Gale Sayers.

Drugs is drugs is drugs, and teen-agers are non-specific in their choice of foolishness. In emphasizing the importance of the family, the psychologist said that peers become important when the family abandons its control over companions and allows them to become the primary influence.

Those who are not immunized-by standards which the family helps evolve will fall into these short-range peer activities, including druginvolv-ment. Blum emphasized that broken homes and completely disorganized families were also excellent predictors of illegal drug use- as they are of other delinquent activities. But his study was concerned with the offspring of the favored white middle class, whose children, even with heavy drug use, seldom get into serious trouble. Blum said the findings did not apply to the children of the working class or to Mexican-American families, where special class and cultural features changed the key variables. He said a study of reasonably cohesive black working class families showed their drug use risk was the lowest of any group.

Race is much overdone in the United States. Our recent study on drug dealers showed that there was no racial predictor, but there was a definite family type. But If disorganized families are more prevalent in Negro slums, then there'll be more screwed-up black children, Blum said. The university researcher, who said his own drug consumption consisted of an occasional glass of wine, said he thought current concern over narcotics use was exaggerated. If were willing to accept the costs of alcohol the risk of serious trouble for 10 to 15 per cent of its users, the traffic deaths and broken families then what are we so fussed up about with the other he asked.

He rejected the idea of a generation gap or communications gap between parents and children, saying youngsters heard what their parents were saying but often did not know-what the adults really thought. SAN FRANCISCO Family practices and back-ground, rather than the so-called generation gap, are to blame when white, middle class teen-agers become heavy drug users, in the opinion of Stanford University's Dr. Richard H. Blum, The key factors, Blum says, are family income, political and religious beliefs, attitudes toward authority and toward youthful rebellion and self, expression, and parental use of alcohol and drugs. By analyzing these traits, Blum contends, he can predict with 90 per cent accuracy whether youngsters will become "high risk or heady drug users.

Kids turn out like their parents only more so, Blum said in an interview at the Stanford Institute for Public Policy Analysis, where he has studied drugs, crime and the community for the past 12 years. To observe that the family is the most profound influence on childrens behavior is not a great scientific discovery. But the ability to identify the key variables is important. 4-Poster Fable' and "MOCrWife" Open Daily 4-1 2 Persons Over 1 1 Only Special Section for Couples mi and illidts. Attitudes toward authority: Only high risk homes had an outright derogation of cops and a major arrogation to the self in determining what laws to obey.

There was even a correlation between the mother's automobile moving violations and childrens drug risks. Attitudes toward child-rearing: The parents acceptance of youthful self-expression and rebellion and the goals of spontaneity, self expression, and invidi dualism for their children correlate with use of drugs. If they think those things are important, they get them. Blums findings were based on a study of 100 intact middle and upper middle class families on the San Francisco Peninsula with two or more children living at home and one of them attending a prestigious private university. The results were recently published in a book titled Horatio Alger's Children.

He defined high risk drug users as chronic marijuana smokers, one-time users of LSD or heroin, those doing any needle work, smokers of two packs of cigarettes daily, and heavy alcohol users. There is Lioness, Daughter Take Pill SAN JOSE (UPI) Not only is Tammy on the pill, but so is her 3-year-old daughter. Tammy and her daughter are African lionesses at the San Jose Zoo and possibly the only ones in the United States on the birth-control pill. Zoo curator Peter Batten has had Tammy on the pill for the past three years as part of an experiment to cut down on the number of lion cubs. The eight-year-old lioness has given birth to five litters, each of four to six cubs.

I just dont want to get in the situation of having to destroy the cubs, he said. There is no ready market for them and they are generally destroyed the day after their cute little baby pictures appear in the newspaper, he said. Batten said the experiment was intended for the dog and cat food market to try and eliminate the chronic number of dogs and cats. ADDED ATTRACTION "HERBIE" the Love Bug ON IN PERSON!
