Pro Tennis Will Sign Agreement HELSINKI, Finland (AP) -A truce between professional and amateur tennis factions, which will again bring about open competition, is expected to be formally sealed here today. The International lawn Tennis Federation, opening its general meeting, said a letter from Lamar Hunt, head of the World Championship Tennis troupe of Dallas, outling conditions of a joint agreement, is expected to be accepted without difficulty. The two warring groups reached a settlement of their differences in London earlier in the year. An ILTF sanction was all that was necessary to bring about a resumption of play between contract pros and other players. Boycotted Meets The pros under contract to Hunt, including Rod Laver, John Tilewcombe, Arthur Ashe, Tony Roche and close to 30 other top tournament performers, had boycotted Wimbledon and other tournaments, such as the U.S, Open at Forest Hills.

Because the formal acceptance didnt come in time, the pros didnt play at Wimblelon, where the mens title was won last week by Americas Stan Smith. Theyre expected to show up at Forest Hills in September. Under the agreement, the pros will control the tournament schedule for the first four months of the season, the ILTF the remaining months. Players may compete as they choose. Other Matters Other important matters to be discussed here by 120 representatives from 50 countries include: 1.

The status of South Africa, currently barred from Davis Cup play because of its apartheid policies. 2. A proposal by Sweden, Denmark and Norway that the second serve be liminated. 3. A suggestion that yellow balls be accepted in international play.

Now only white balls are allowed. 4. Placement of the Davis Cup under ILTF jurisdiction. The competition is now governed by Davis Cup nations. Odusa Leads Yacht Race by Hundred VICTORIA, B.C.

(AP) Odu sa, a 53-foot ketch from Seattle, was 100 miles out in front of, the fleet Monday with 1,000 miles to go in the Victoria to Maui yacht race. The 16-yacht fleet was in two distinct groups, with eight boats in each group. Odusa was leading the most southerly group which had picked up the trade winds and made an average of 189 miles Monday, the ninth day of the race. Fighting for second position were the Vancouver yacht Flame leader of the northerly group and three boats in the south groups Nautical II, Cherokee and Co Motion, all of Seattle.

Before theplayers separated Tuesday night, Spassky wrote his 41st move on a sheet of paper, sealed it in an envelope and gave it to Schmid, the referee from West Germany. Schmid will open the envelope this aftrnoon and make Spasskys first move for him. Fischer, dressed in a dark suit, leaned forward with his head propped on his fist during the game, or rocked back in his swivel chair to get a longer view of the forces silently colliding on the marble and slate chess board.

Spassky seemed more comfortable with his forearms on the padded edge of the table. His legs were bent back under his chair, toes downward. Sometimes Spassky walked offstage as he waited for Fischer to respond to a move. A large neon sign blinked on occasionally to admonish silence. Its purpose was to hush a low murmur in the vast auditorium.

Spectators sat in near darkness, most of them too far way to make out what was happening onstag. But above and in front of the stage, a screen 30 feet across displayed the positions on the board. In the corridors outside, the silence gave way to animated discussion as people lined up for coffee and sandwiches before a lunch counter. At tables, chess fans replayed the moves on miniature chess boards, talking to themselves in a dozen languages. Bill Wheeler, 29-year-old Corpus Christi, computer operator, quit his job and brought a years savings to Iceland to watch the match.

A two-time chess champion of Texas, Wheeler looked around and said: All chess plavers are quite insane. Chess Moves Spassky Fiichtr sp.sjky Flschr Kt KB3 S. P-K3 Ok5o J- PQB4 K3 6. 33 B4 3. Kf KB3 04 7, 0 0 Kl B3 4.

Unbeaten Don Standley won his fourth game in the Northwest League for the Spokane Indians Monday night as he went 10 innings for a four-hit 3-2 win over Coos Bay-North Bend. Five Sjxikane errors behind Standley kept him in trouble, but he shut off several CB-NB rallies. Standley struck out 11 and walked three, continuing to prove himself one of the prize prospects on the Dodger farm club. Coos Bay jumped ahead 2-0 in the sixth inning with two unearned runs.

Standley walked and John Sniders grounder results in a late throw to second, leaving both runners safe. Tom Kos-tolsky grounded out, advancing the runners, and John hit a sacrifice fly to score one run and Jim Fiack singled in the other. The winning run in the 10th came on a single by Tim Steele, a wild pitch, a walk to Miike Parnow and a grounder by Chuck Walker. The throw on Walkers grounder was wild and Steel scored.

Vidal Breaks Atlantic Race Yacht Mark NEWPORT, R.I. (AP) -Frenchman Vidal completed the Trans-Atlantic single-handed Yacht Race in record-breaking time Tuesday, the third skipper to beat the old mark of 26 days for the nearly 3, 000-mile crossing. Also expected in by nightfall was British Steel, with Brian Cooke at the helm. His 59-foot ketch was spotted earlier in the day at the Nantucket Light about 100 miles from the finish line. Vidal brought the 52-foot Cap 33 by the Brenton Reef Light Tower at about 1 p.m.

EDT, nearly four hours before he was expected to complete the trip. A spokesman for the race sponsor, the London Observer, said it had been believed the Cap 33 was trailing British Steel as they both neared the finish. One Day Better The French skippers unofficial time for the race was 25 days, one better than the mark established by Geoffrey Williams with the Sir Thomas Lip-ton in 1968. Also considered a possible finisher Tuesday, race spokesmen said, was American Tom Follett in the 46-foot trimaran Three Cheers. The record for the crossing 21 days, was set by Frenchman Alain Colas, who piloted his 70-foot trimaran Pen Duick IV to Newport last Friday.

He was followed into port 15 hours later by Jean Yves Terlain, at the helm of the 128-foot schooner Vendredi 13, by far the largest yacht in the race. More than 40 other boats are still presumed heading for Newport.

MOSCOW (AP) Moscows Central Chess Club, usually buzzing with kibitzers for big chess matches, was quiet Tuesday night as the Soviet Unions Boris Spassky began defense of his world title against America's Bobby Fischer. No arrangements had been made to get a move-by-move report on the match in far-off Reykjavik, Iceland. Soviet grandmasters, masters and millions of ordinary chess fans were waiting until today for an account of the play. For the all-Soviet championships of the past, the club on tree-lined Gogloevsky Boulevard has been a lively center of commentary and attention to the match in progress.

As each move was made at the championship it was relayed to the club for the benefit of members and fans waiting there. Although Western news agencies were carrying reports of the play, the Soviet news agency Tass ran no listing of the move-bv-move action during the first runs in the first three innings to take sole possession of first place in the American League East. The Tigers had entered the contest tied with the Orioles for the lead.
