"Have hope. W-! shall all be reunited one day." A myriad of tear-stained faces watched as the girl's white-haired father, Leland Woods, 61, a retired welding shop foreman who has suffered four heart attacks, leaned heavily on a cane and the arm of Joyce's mother, Bernice Huff, 37, as they left the chapel. Burial was at Forest Lawn Memorial nicipal Court in Bellflower by a convoy of black and white sheriff's cars. The suspects, Donald Antelo, 21; Oscar Hernandez, 22; and Mike Ramirez, 17, were ordered to face a preliminary hearing July 19. At the funeral, a tow-haired girl about Joyce's age in her mother's arms and teen-agers in mini skirts were among those who filed past the open, petal-pink flower-banked casket while a soloist sang "Jesus Loves the Little Children of the World." Joyce Ann is survived by her parents, six brothers, and three On Sunday, a Mexican-American warned an Anglo on Joyce Ann's street: "You white folks better get inside if you know what's good for you." Twenty-five minutes later, a car stopped in front of Joyce Ann's home, fired a shot and sped off, witnesses said.

The child died an hour later in a hospital. "They were shooting just to scare, to show they weren't afraid," one young man said. The three men accused pf the shooting were brought in chains from County Jail to their arraignment at Los Cerritos Mu LOS ANGELES (AP) -Feuding between rival Mexican-American youth gangs from suburban Norwalk and Hawaiian Gardens led to the shooting death of 4-year-old Joyce Ann Huff, the Los Angeles Times reported today. The girl was playing near her Hawaiian Gardens home Sunday when she was felled by a shotgun blast from a passing car. Three Mexican-American youths from Norwalk were arraigned in Bellflower on murder charges Thursday in the crime, which officers at first called a senseless "joy killing." A few hours after the ar raignment, 100 persons attended funeral services for the girl in Lakewood.

The Times gave this account of the events which led to the shooting: Tensions built up between the loosely federated gangs in the two nearby towns when a youth insulted another youth's sister at a party the Friday before the slaying. A fight ensued, a bottle was broken and a man was killed with a knife. During the weekend, young men from the rival barrios prowled their enemies' "turf," shouting taunts, brandishing guns.

Unless the American challenger or the Soviet champion pleads illness and gets another pos'onnement.

The confusion of the past week was summarized by the old woman selling cigarettes who asked in the beginning: "Fischer come?" Near the end it was: "Spassky go?" "I'm very pessimistic," Dr. Max Euwe said at 10 a.m. At noon: "It's a very delicate situation." At 7 p.m., the president of the International Chess Federation sighed: "There's hope." That was Tuesday. It could have been any day in the garbled prelude to what chess lovers say is the match of (he centurv Spassky of the USSR, vs. Fischer of the U.S.A.

Spassky arrived early to wait for Bobby. And when he didn't arrive, he philosophically accepted the first postponement when Fischer didn't show. Later he demanded an apology or he wouldn't play. Fred Cramer, who advanced a slender claim to represent Fischer and called a lot of news conferences, forecast like a man who ought to know: "I can't see Bobby apologizing."
