his delay tactics to the fullest arrived eight minutes late Tuesday for the opening game of his world shin chess match against Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union By the time the American challenger sat down at the chess board on stage in a 3000-seat auditorium the deputy arbiter of the match had started the game's timing clock and Spassky had made his opening move The audience gave Fischer a 30-second ovation when he stepped on stage keep peace durng the parades and deal with 'snipers who have stepped up their attacks since the provisional wing of the Irish Republican Army called off its ceasefire Sunday When all 1200 British reinforcements arrive there will be 17000 soldiers in the provinces the most since troops first were sent in August 1969 to put down sectarian strife THERE WAS a threat of more trouble from militant Protestants who said they would move against IRA gunmen if British troops did not take the offensive The Protestant Ulster Defense Association enraged by reports that William Whitelaw British Secretary of State for Northern Ireland had met IRA leaders secretly during the truce threatened civil war unless he ordered the army crush the IRA t'If the security forces and Mr White law do not take and keep up offensive action against the terrorists the Ulster Defense Association will become the Ulster Offensive Association and will take steps to eliminate terrorists" the UDA's 13-man ruling council said in a statement The organization claims it can mobilize more than 25000 men The British Army said there were three bombings and 233 shooting incidents

indication when the dock gangs would resume work ILWU Regional Director Robert McElrath would not say when or if the men would return to the docks "The stopwork meetings are of an indefinite length" he said The ILWIls longshore negotiating committee met Monday night for several hours Those present refused to comment on what occurred at the closed-door meeting coy JOHN A Burns continued his behind-the-scenes role and was reportedly in constant touch with Federal Mediator Reynolds Hagist and his personal state mediator Bert Kobayashi Burns canceled a trip' to the Democratic National Convention and Hawaii's delegation had to select a new chairman The shipping industry reacted sharply to the stop-work meetings Bernard Eilerts chief spokesman for the 11 companies blasted the ILW11 saying it was attempting to "resolve the issues by strike tactics rather than across the table" Although the union would not comment on its latest contract position unofficial sources said the stalemate centered over management insistence that work forces on the outer islands be slashed Then Spassky demanded a personal apology from Fischer for the delay and the American gave it to Mai in a letter delivered last week Despite the television rangements there was no filming of Tuesday's opening match because Fischewwould not permit it His spokesmen said however that television of the rest of the games might be arranged The match for as many as 24 games As champion Spasskyneeds 12 points to win Fischer needs 125 One point is 'awarded for a victoryand a half point is awarded to each

suffered earlier in violence between British troops and Protestants and Roman Catholics The killings came one day before the Protestant Orange Order parades expected to trigger more fighting One of those killed was a British soldier hit by a sniper as his patrol cleared the rubble of a bombed flower shop in Londonderry A 1-year-old youth was killed in shooting between soldiers and gunmen in Belfast's Catholic Andersontown district The army said the youth was believed to be a sniper THE BODY of a man in his 20s bound and gagged was found earlier in the day in a field in the Protestant Carlisle Circus area of Belfast and another man died in the hospital from gunshot wounds suffered earlier Elsewhere in Northern Ireland police said gunmen stole more that $3700 in three robberies in County Armagh and bombed a pub at Ballagy 40 miles north of Belfast No injuries were reported The killings brought the death toll in three years of violence in the province to 421 The province's British government meanwhile brought in more troops and ordered Protestants to change the route of Wednesday's Orange Order parades originally planned to skirt Belfast's Catholic neighborhoods THE PARADES commemorating the 1690 battle of the Boyne which resulted in Protestant domination over Northern Ireland's Catholic minority have sparked sectarian violence in past years About 500 additional British troops arrived Tuesday to Tropical Depression Forms Off the Coast Heads 1corth by reconnaissance aircraft and were expected to increase before hitting land forecasters said Spassky playing

Hurricane Center said the depression formed from a low pressure trough which has lingered in the Florida Straits for several days and caused rain over South Florida for three days forecasters said The depression was located late Tuesday about 75 miles southeast of Charleston South Carolina Forecasters predicted it would drift slowly to the north making a landfall on the border between the Carolinas by a high pressure area Pelissier said "This gives it a better circulation in its center" he said The central barometric pressure in the depression was holding at 3001 inches Small craft warnings were in effect along the coastline of the Carolinas and will spread into southeast Virgin ia later today the hurricane center said Meanwhile much of the same is in store or South Florida The forecast calls

relations head William Ward Hawaii's longshoremen have been working under terms of a contract that expired June 30 1971 During negotiations the union won an 82 cent an hour wage increase but talks bogged down over work guarantees "There is little chance for the storm to develop to tropical tor rn or hurricane strength at this time since it is so close to land" said Hurricane Forecaster Joe Pellissier "It is unlikely that it would turn out toward the sea now but later if it should further development would be possible" he said Winds were reported to be 35 to 45 mph off the Carolina coast

similar in content and varying only in size and in quantity of supplies The smallest is for planes that carry no more than five persons The next twice as large is for planes carrying six to 25 persons The other three times the size of the smallest is for planes carrying more than 25 REED SAID it was highly unlikely that one kit size would suffice for capacities ranging from 26 to the more Ilan 300 passengers of some aircraft The board proposed that more kits be provided on larger planes but that their size be kept small enough to assure ease of handling in confined spaces It also recommended that units be located strategically through the airplane cabin for ready access and as a reminder of cabin deformation that might result from hard landings or water ditchings "A sufficient supply of materials should be available to permit the treatment of lacerations and immobilization of fractures without having to rely on makeshift arrangemcnts to compensate for the lack of certain supplies" the board said WASHINGTON (AP) The National Transportation Safety Board said Tuesday that a turbulence accident aboard a huge 747 jet last winter showed that first-aid supplies aboard new wide-body airliners are Madequate The board asked the Federal Aviation Administration to amend regulations governing such supplies The notice from Safety Board Chairman John Reed to FAA Administrator John Shaffer referred to injuries aboard a Miami-toLos Angeles National Airlines Boeing 747 flight carrying 334 persons during severe turbulence near Grand Isle La "OUR INVESTIGATION has disclosed an area of concern regarding the adequacy of first-aid supplies on board the airplane" Reed said "The number of first-aid kits is well as the contents of the kits appeared to have been inadequate to treat the 38 passengers and four stewardesses who sustained injuries "It was necessary for More than two hours to use makeshift arrangements to immobilize fractures stop bleeding and dress wounds" FAA
