Spassky the first move and the world championship chess match will finally start next Tuesday Unless the American challenger or the Soviet champion pleads illness and gets another postponement The confusion of the past week was summarized by the old woman selling cigarettes who asked in the beginning: Near the end it was: very Dr Max Euwe said at 10 am At noon: a very delicate At 7 pm the president of the International Chess Federation sighed: That was Tuesday It could have been any day in the garbled prelude to what chess lovers say is the match of the century Spassky of the USSR vs Fischer of the US A Spassky arrived early to wait for Bobby Saying came to he philosophically accepted the first postponement when Fischer show Later he demanded an apology or he play At one news conference one of lawyers said come to say he had nothing to say Yefim Geller Spassky's second fielded questions with: Gavarit po or as you say in English One final quote from Gudmundur Thorarinsson president of the Icelandic Chess Federation who was under pressure from Fischer to give up a share of the gate receipts: have worked for more than a year to get this match to Iceland I would do many things But I will not bite into a sour Bomb Explodes Near School BELFAST Northern Ireland AP) A 50-100-pound bomb exploded between a Roman Catholic church and its school in Belfast early today It was the first major explosion in Northern Ireland since the Irish Republican Army declared a truce 10 days ago but police were reluctant to speculate who was responsible The bomb gouged a crater 10 feet wide and two feet deep sent four persons to a hospital to be treated for shock and did extensive but superficial damage to the church school and surrounding homes Several bursts of shooting also were heard during the night mostly inside Catholic districts of Belfast Army headquarters said the security forces were not involved and it could not be learned who was doing the shooting In one incident a car making a detour was fired on and a 19year-old passenger was hit in the head Schmidt Named To Finance Post BONN Germany AP) Chancellor Willy Brandt today appointed Defense Minister Helmut Schmidt

Catholic Churches (U PI) BERN Switzerland (AP) The proposed US-Swiss treaty that the Nixon administration considers a vital weapon against organized crjme has run into stiff new opposition from influential Swiss banking and industrial circles It is now certain to be delayed until next year and speculation is growing that it may neveitake effect After four years of negotiations officials of the two governments agreed last December on the draft of a complex assistance more than 100 pages long that would help US investigators collect evidence in Switzerland and track down funds deposited by American suspects in secrecy-protected Swiss bank accounts Key clauses that prompted criticism were amended and there was confidence on both sides that the treaty could be signed early this summer American sources concede that Swiss officials in several meetings made all-out efforts to win industry and banking support But they have run into renewed resistance since spring and one influential industry source said today the draft is still He said Swiss business wants new talks next year One criticism frequently made is that the present draft is lopsided in favor of the United States and would give it sweeping rights in a country where many American companies have set up subsidiaries These critics argue that the treaty would even permit American antitrust proceedings to be carried into Switzerland which does not have such legislation The chief source of concern is the provision rated most important by the Americans It would oblige Swiss banks and authorities to cooperate with the US government and open now-secret bank records when there are to assume that organized crime is involved At present Swiss law allows bank secrecy to be breached only after a criminal complaint is filed in Switzerland American sources said that it appeared resistance to the treaty hardened in the wake of the Clifford Irving-Howard Hughes biography fraud in which wife took $650000 that
