Championship chess is a contest that calls for prodigious amounts of physical as well as mental exertion. To determine how much energy is actually expended by a chess player in a tournament game, a bio-kinetic experiment was conducted at Temple University in 1970.

Pulse, heartbeat and other physiological mea-' surements were taken on 12 volunteers during play. The surprising result: Chess is as physically taxing as a strenuous session of boxing or football. Thus both Bobby Fischer of the United States and JBoris "Spassky of Lhe Soviet Union are keeping their bodies in fighting trim as they prepare for their world championship chess match in Reykjavik, Iceland, starting July 2. The close-lipped Spassky has declined to reveal details of his training program, although it is known he likes to play tennis. Fischer's daily regimen includes morning calisthenics in front of his television set, followed by swimming, tennis and bowling.

By the same token, professional football players find that chess sharpens their mental agility on the field. Ron Johnson and Bob Tucker, both of the New York Giants, are engaged in a marathon match that has been in progress for several years. But Harold C. Schonberg argues in Harper's that chess brings greater rewards: "It is an affirmation of personality. The game requires imagination and creativity the ability to see, or sense, possibilities hidden to less refined minds." Dr.

William Brady Personal Health Victor Reisel Reveals Inside The Labor Front A MEAL THAT STICKS TO IBS A meal that is adiquate-that supplies not just one or two but all af the elements required for good nutrition sticks to your ribs, sustains you until next mealtime comes. The elements required for good nutrition are not just carbohydrate (starch sugarl but carbohydrate plus fat plus protein plus cellulose (wood fibre, indigestive matter, filler), vitamins and minerals. If instead of an adequate meal vcu take just lea and toast, coffee and a roll, cakes and syrup or fish and chips ynu are likely to get an empty feeling or a let down before next mealtime and resort to candy, a soft drink, gum-chewing, smoking, aspirin, a stimulant, a quick one at the neighboring bar, or even a narcotic drug never quite satisfies the craving, which is the demand of the undernourished body for food WhenT say undernourished, the term applies whether the body is underweight or overweight. I 'believe the national malnutrition, the nutritional deficiency of well-to-do people who don't know how to feed themselves is a common causative factor of drinking and taking drugs. One periodic inebriate explained that he went on a bout when he "felt the need of a stimulant" or when he "wanted to feci better" Both feelings are common in persons with malnutrition.

In fact it seems to me that most acute illnesses or indispositions of the American people todav are due to respiratory infection, which is preventable, and most illnesses and mdipositions of long duration (chronic) are due to nutri tional deficiency, which is preventable. If this view is correct, it follows that most Illnesses requiring medical care and most of the common com plaints which lead victims to the use of dangerous pain-killers and habit-forming "sedatives" or narcotics should be ascribed to ignorance. Take aspirin, for instance, If you do so as a frequent or routine practice you're oh, well, you're smart enough to choose your own category, Or take acetanilide, or rather don't take it, not even in the attractive form that appeals to the sophomoronic portion of the population, ont until you have studied tbe chapter on The Abuse of Analgesic Drugs In the booklet, about heart and artery troubles).

Books and Wins turned the Mafia into a grim hut lovable network of interrelated families who took care of their own. Then Crazy Joey, lionized by the Broadway-Hollywood London Jet Set in Umberto's Clam Bar last April, was cut down. That burst the glittering public relations bauble.

The authorities zeroed in on the free form intra-Colornbo family civil war. The rest of the mobs' watched. Then indictments billowed out on scores of charges. Banks they owned or Influenced have come under sharp scrutiny. About a month ago members of the National Commission, especially those in this metropolitan concentration began making contact, This is a political season and there are always votes in nailing Mafiosi.

Furthermore, the street troops of other families were getting jittery. A lot Df this mob action, on tbe waterfront, in real estate, restaurants, legitimate businesses, the unions, especially among some construction locals, is interrelated. AJsd, with one Colombo faction holed up on one street, such as is the uptight Gallo crowd, and with the other factions disappearing from their nighttime Brooklyn haunts, rackets are una t't ended. Loan shark payments are not being picked up! There's no action on the waterfront. Truck hijacking is at an all-time low in the Colombo territory.

So the other mobs' men have itchy fingers. This could lead to twitchy triggers, The National Commission, being unhappy with the Colombo civil war, did not want a new national gang war, So there was a courier "meet." Not what you might call an old-fashioned sit-down. The dons got caught at that kind of conference in La Stella, a restaurant not far from the airports, and at lunch in a Manhattan Chinese restaurant. So the couriers of Don Carlo "Waterfront" Gambino, still boss of his own family; Carmine (Mr. Gribbs) a i operator of bars, restaurants and once with powerful influence in Laborers locals here (now boss fthe old Johnny Dlo-Tony "Ducks" Corallo-LucheSe family) Natale Evola, big man in trucking, who runs the Bonanno family, and Alphonse (Funzie) Tieri of East Harlem, who because Tommy "Ryan" Eboli has had three heart attacks is acting boss of the Genovcse crowd.

The couriers exchanged and explained their bosses' opinions. The decision was made. Tt was passed on to the two rival civil war leaders Persico in the Atlanta Penitentiary and to the surviving Callo brother, Al. Either make peace or don't kill in puhlic. Persico said no peace.

Now we'll see who suddenly disappears quietly from favorite haunts and restaurants. The Mafia is returning to Phase One. (All Rights Reserved) Despite the need for brawn as well as brain, chess is regarded with indifference, at best, by most Americans. The game is thought of as boring and strictly for the cerebral elite. As a result, the United States ranks about as poorly in world chess circles as il does in international Ping Pong competition.

The Soviet Union has around four million chess players who compete in tournaments, the United States only about Still, the unofficial world champion of chess in tbe mid 19lh century was Paul Morphy of New Orleans. Since organized international competition began in 1948, the Russians have had a monopoly on the title. Not only that, all challengers in the final rounds have been Russians, too. Now, Fischer is given a slightly better than even chance of dethroning Spassky. But skeptics point out that Spassky has beaten Fischer in all five of.

their previous meetings. The two finalists already have jousted over a site for their showdown match. Fischer wanted Belgrade, while Spassky favored Reykjavik. A compromise under which games would be played in botli cities finally fell through. The entire match, consisting of a maximum of 24 games, will take place in Icelandic capital.

challenger, Fischer must amass 12 Vi points to win, while Spassky needs only 12 to defend his title. Iceland may seem an odd choice for a championship sporting event of any kind. as chess columnist Harry Golnmbek of The Times of London pointed out. "There is a long tradition of the popularity of chess in that country, going right back almost to the beginning of the game in Europe." The oldest known European set of chessmen, now on display in the British Museum, is believed to have been made in Iceland in the 12tli Century. Many other countries, including India, China and Spain, also have contributed to the lore of chess.

The word checkmate, signaling the end of a game, comes from the Persian phrase shah mat. Appropriately enough, it means "The king is dead," NEW YORK If any of the Colombo family executioners decide on a slight case of murder, the warning from the Mafia's National Commission is that slaying must be handled discreetly from now on. No more gory sidewalk or restaurant puhlic killings. The old-fashioned way is better a hit at night, into the trunk of the car, or into the river with cement shoes, or a fine, heavily flowered funeral for an old friend who just happened to die of a strychnine Induced heart, attack. This message not only was relayed to the princely leadership of the feuding factions, Carmine "The Snake" Persico and Al Gatlo, by the Commission's under bosses, hut it has now seeped down to the street troops tn cities right across the nation.

This is no Godfather script. Public killings such as the slaying of Joey Gallo by contract are bad for business hundreds of millions of dollars worth af annual business in this New York-New Jersey metropolitan area from which springs control of most of the Mafia's national operations. Furthermore, the street blood ran through the Mafia's recent euphoria like hot strawberry sauce through ice cream. Until "Crazy Joey" got it, the Mafia was enjoying its greatest puhlic relations since Capone left Brooklyn to make good in the big city ot Chicago. You can believe it.

this was one of the most skillfully orchestrated nubile relations campaigns since Carter discovered little liver pills. Then, according to the best of Justice Dept. sources. Joey Gallo set up the public Joe Colombo shooting June 2B, 1971. Generally the public doesn't know that "Joey" was not from a rival family but one of the faction eliicfs inside the Colombo clan.

Colombo, who in her aDoul, and overshot. Instead of landing on a table of her derriere, Joan, bound and gagged and unable to cry out, tended on her head on the floor with a crash.

The children? They are outdoors, of course. Joined by other children in the neighborhood, they are happily splashing about in swiftly forming mud puddles. One problem remains. What do you do with a perfectly good, unused copy of a book called Games to Play Indoors When It Rains? Short Comment Across The Desk By JIM YADAMEC Who would want a live rattlesnake? Plenty of persons, it seems. The Herald Standard recently ran a story about John Wilson of Markleysburg who bad caught a 48 inch rattler and was offering it to the public free of charge.

We checked with Mr. Wilson two days later to see if he had any takers. "Did the 60-yeHr man explained. "I bad about. 20 calls the first two days and my phone is still ringing, day and night," Mr.

Wilson said he didn't know who to give the snake to some persons offered to buy it), so he gave it to the first fellow who called. What's he going to do with it? "He told me he was going to take il. to a dentist and have it defanged," Mr. Wilson chuckled. "He wanted it as a pet." And what about.

Mr. Wilson, the gentleman who catches rattlesnakes for a hobby, is he afraid of them? "I sure am." Then why? "I had a brain tumor removed several years ago and am disabled. My doctors suggested that I do anything to 'excite the That this would help me." Mr. Wilson has "excited the nerves" eight times in the past two years, that's the number of rattlers he has caught. But he's quick to point out that you don't have to catch them to gel excited.

Eventually, water threatened the WILK newsroom and the station was lorced to evacuate shortly after 9 a.m. Friday.
