'V 14 The Spokesman-Review, S.ilurday, July 1, 1972. Drea, Three Yank Crews Gain Henley Regatta Finals Stan Smith Unsteady Victor; Chris Evert Gets Tough Win seemed to give me the right environment to race again. Drea, who has rowed for the Vesper Boat Club of Philadelphia since he went to the United States last July, beat Dietz in their last encounler two weeks ago. I beat him by 10 seconds in Philadelphia, the Irishman said, but I dont know how I will do against Timoschinin. I found the long races here very confusing after competing over 2,000 meters.

wwwwwwwwwwv oni Pay CHICAGO (AP) Pattys Bumpkin won the ninth race at Arlington Park Friday to set off a trifecta payoff of $38,801.10. HENLEY-ON-THAMES, Ens-land (AP) Sean Drea, an Irish farmers son and three crack eights carried American hopes into the finals with impressive wins at Henley Royal Regatta Friday. Drea, a 25-year-old self-confessed Irish dropout, beat English champion Ken Dwan and reached the final of the Diamond Challenge Sculls, Henleys premier prize for individual rowers. But U.S. heavyweight champion Jim Dietz of the New York Athletic Club was beaten in the other diamond semifinal by Alexander Timoschinin of the Soviet Union.

A heavyweight eight from Northeastern University of Boston surprisingly moved into the final of the Grand Challenge Cup, beating Englands defending trophy holders, Tideway Scullers. Northeasterns stroke, Calvin Coffey, of Jewett City, N.Y., got his crew off to a strong start, but the English eight held on until the halfway mark. Then, Northeastern stormed home to win by 2V4 lengths in 7:08, Russian Opponents The U.S. eight meets Russias WMF Moscow team in Saturdays final for the title. The Soviet crew beat Englands University of London in the other semifinal by four lengths in 6:48.

Ernie Arlett, Northeasterns veteran coach, was not overawed by the Russians impressive time. Of course they are good, he admitted, but they can be Any crew can be beaten. Harvard Universitys freshman eight beat Englands Quin-tin Boat Club, by iv lengths in 7:30, and reached the semifinals of the Thames Challenge Cup. Kent School of Connecticut, continued its good showing in the Princess Elizabeth Cup for schoolboy eights, with an easy semifinal victory in 7:31 over Englands Kings School. Three-Length Win Dietz performance was big disappointment for the thousands of fans who lined the one-mile 550-yard River Thames course.

The American champion got away to a brilliant start, but watched Timoschinin cruise past him. The Russian won by three lengths in 8:51. Drea, whose droppy moustache and long hair looked out of place in Henleys stately rowing scene, will meet Timoschinin in the Diamonds final. He beat local hero Dwan by 3 1-3 lengths in 8:38. To think I almost dropped out of rowing completely, said Drea.

But when I went across to study at Temple University, it Navy Frigale Rushes Help lo Chichester LONDON (AP) While the leaders in the Transatlantic yacht race were halfway across the ocean, 70-year-old Sir Francis Chichester Friday night sailed to a rendezvous with the Royal Navy Frigate Salisbury carrying his son Giles Chichesters son will leave the Naval air station at Cul-drose, Cornwall to join the frigate by helicopter. Chichester, in his yacht Gipsy Moth was last reported about 390 miles from Plymouth He was tacking into northerly breezes, making about five knots. Salisbury is a aircraft search ship, equipped with a doctor and a team of volunteer Royal Navy yachtsmen. Its sister ship is named Chichester. No Thank You Navy volunteers were making ready to sail Chichesters yacht back to England if needed.

When last contacted, he signalled to the French ship, France II, No assistance or doctor required. Thank you. Go away He had signalled to a Royal Air Force plane: Am going to Plymouth. The pilot noted that he had changed course 10 degrees from his previous France-bound tack. There will be about half an hour of daylight left when the craft meet.

Ministry of Defense spokesmen said the frigate would only go away if told to personally by Chichester. Defied Orders He had defied doctors by starting the race 14 days ago. He had been suffering from a long debilitating illness, that softens the bone marrow and usually cuts down the proportion of red corpuscles, bringing on anemia. Though his ketch has been rolling in the heavy seas, he was able to signal and keep his feet, though he reported Thursday, I am weak and cold. Of the 48 yachts left in the lace, none has reported or been reported further west than Dutchman Gerard Dijkstra in the ketch Second Life.

It is possible, though, that British Steel and Strongbow, both of Britain, who had not reported for 24 hours, could be further across.

We'll Be CLOSED Monday 5 When he won his first U.S. chess championship at the age of 14, Bohhv Fischer observed with nearly galling relish, I like to sec em squirm. Now 29 and facing Russias Boris Spassky for the world title, Fischer remains one of the most controversial and most successful players in the game's history. As passionately devoted to his privacy as ho is to his game, Fischer has a public record of being sullen, highstrung, a donna and chronic complain-r.

lie Attacks! But while his actions outside tournaments may he unexpected and perplexing, his game inside is legendary an aggressive (strategy dotted with ferocious attacks that have left his opponents exhausted. Bohhv Fischer wants no more and no less to win. And I10 has done so with incredible consistency, winning a total of Jeight IS championshms and dominating recent international Play. Described tiv Anthony Saidy rounded chess time, Fischer only lum chess master as "the most genius of all now seeks the title that has ever eluded the world championship came a short time later when his mother brought home a small, dime store chess set and taught him the moves from an instruction sheet. Joining trip Brooklyn Chess Club at 8, Fischer earned a Reserve Rating in the strong Manhattan Chess Club by Ihe time he was 12 and had played in his first national tournaments.

He burst into the big lime one year later, winning the US. Junior Chess Championship and having one of his competition games acclaimed hy elder chess statesman Hans Knioch as game of the century. 1 At the age of 14 turned out jin a shirt, dungarees and sneakers he won his first national At 15, he became the youngest chess competitor in history to win the rating of grand master. In the years that have followed, Fischer has done more than any man before him to popularize the sport of chess in Ihe Fluted States, and single-handedly, has generated more controversy. Over the years, Fischer has complained about the lighting, the scheduling, the spectators, the air conditioning, the living! conditions and the purses of his matches, and he quit some of them.

I He refused to compete in the I last two world championships I eliminations, charging that the Russian players had rigged the tournaments hy nlaying for draws against one another and for wins against Westerners As a result, the International Chess Federation FIDE has tightened its rules on tournament draws and changed the 1 challengers competition from 'round robin to manto-man elim-I illation. I Now mounting his first real hid for the world title, Fischer appears to have tempered his quarrels with oflicials to pursue what he calls "a sense of mission to win Ihe championship. I'm tued of being the unoffi-ci 1 champion, he said. As he faces the opening game in Reykjavik, Iceland, Fischer is (riding a wave of victories unprecedented in the history of chess I11 the first of three elimina- ion matches to determine the challenger to Spaxskv. Fischer deleated Soviet grand master Mark Taimanov by the startling score of fi 0 the first time in chess history that one grand master had shut out another without a single drawn game, Two months later, Fischer attacked Denmarks brilliant Bent Larsen like a computerized steamroller and won again, 6-0; it was the equivalent of pitching hark-to-back perfect games in baseball.

With 19 consecutive victories in grand master plav. Fischer then secured his right to play Spassky for the title, defeating former world champion Russian Tigran Petrosian, 6'j to 2l'i. No chess player in history could show a record like it. Now primed mentally and physically for probably the most imprtant match of his career, important match of his career, outcome. Its nice to be modest, but it would be stupid if I did not tell the truth, he says.
