TOWER from Page 6 of Estimate to Vote on City Spire Deal "The fact that the owner of the building chooses to occupy the illegal space is a continuing flaunting of the city's law. And he should be called on it," said a spokesman for City Comptroller Harrison J. Goldin, the firmest opponent to the deal. Eichner's attorney and representative, Howard Hornstein, who is a former city planning commission member, said he is "'hoping' the board considers the approvals for the CitySpire deal from city planning and the Landmarks Preservation Commission. All told, CitySpire can claim one of the longest and tortured runs through the planning process, since it received its approval four years ago.

But others speculated that the Board of Estimate might take heed of Tuesday's decision by another body the Board of Standards and Appeals to force another developer to chop off 12 stories from his Upper East Side build- ing. Different case, same principle at stake, says Goldin. Another complication for Eichner: the proposed dance studios are so tiny divided into three parts measuring 21 by 60 feet that critics charge they are near worthless. Not so, dance experts with the Joffrey Ballet said in letters of support to Hornstein. Rose charged in a recent letter to Planning Commission Chairperson Sylvia Deutsch that the dancers are biased Soviet Chess Prodigy Picks New Home KAMSKY from Page 6 ago," said Parr, noting that he was one of two or three people being groomed in the Soviet Union to be the next world champion.

Kamsky's reasons for defecting related to chess and included the lack of opportunities to play, said Lev Alburt, a chess grandmaster who defected from the Soviet Union 10 years ago and assisted the Kamskys. "But the bottom line is the lack of freedom," Alburt said. "It is still that the Soviet Union is an unfree country and people want to be The Kamskys were escorted yesterday to the lower Manhattan offices of the Immigration and Naturalization Service by Allen Kaufman, executive director of the American Chess Foundation, and two FBI agents, Alburt said. Parr, now editor of Glasnost magazine, which is concerned with current Soviet issues, said Gata Kamsky's reasons for defecting may go deeper than playing chess or even lack of freedom. He noted that the Kamskys are Crimean Tatars, who, he said, historically have been treated as second-rate citizens within the Soviet Union.

They seek the return of their homeland in Crimea, which Stalin banished them from in 1944. "Here's a young kid who is a Crimean Tatar who must hate the Soviet government," said Parr. "In one sense, one wonders how the Soviet Union could have been naive enough to send him abroad with his father." The youth's parents are divorced, but his father has remarried. Alburt said they hope the Rustam Kamsky's wife will eventually be allowed to come to the United States. Numerous high-ranking Soviet and East European chess players have defected to the West, including Viktor Korchnoi, a former world champion finalist who now lives in Switzerland, and Romania's top player, grandmaster Mihai Suba, who now lives in London and played in the New York competition.

A member of the Soviet delegation said that Kamsky had always been treated well by Soviet sports authorities and said it was difficult to understand why he decided to defect. because Hornstein sits on the Joffrey board. (Hornstein confirmed Joffrey records that he also is a "golden circle having given between $25,000 and $50,000 to the ballet.) But others who insist they have no connection to Eichner have similar acclaim for the studios, which are to be built in an open space adjacent the CitySpire building on West 56th Street. "The studios are small, but can adapt by dancing straight up and down instead of moving from side to side," said Marian Horosko, coordinator of the Danse Coalition, adding that, because rehearsal space is so scarce, "I'd take a table-top." That Eichner deliberately chose to make his building taller is conceded. Three feet of the illegal height, he says, was due to his architect's mistake in calculating the curb.

The balance of nearly 11 feet for the sum total of nearly 14 was extra cement added to the building on many floors to keep the tower from swaying. Moreover, Eichner concedes that he proceded to build before obtaining the final permits. In short, he gambled. Also, last year a furor was raised when New York Newsday reported that he had proceded to finish the huge golden dome atop the tower, despite an order from the Buildings Department to halt work pending resolution of the height dispute. Hornstein said he will address the project's entire history today at the public hearing Officer Reports Smelling Liquor on Captain SLICK from Page 15 where Hazelwood was.

Officials of Exxon Shipping have said Hazelwood was in his cabin under the bridge while Cousins, who lacked the proper Coast Guard certification to guide the ship through the sound, was in command on the bridge. The NTSB official said Kagan described a series of shouted orders first from the third mate and then in the final moments of the accident from Hazelwood as the 987-foot tanker left the sound's traffic lanes and dragged its bottom along the stones Death Notices BRADLEY -Mary on March 28. 1989.

Kagan described the running aground as "a bumpy ride," Woody said. Woody said the helmsman reported hearing a series of orders to turn the vessel right, left and straight as it got stuck on the rocks, where it still rests. Don Cornett, an Exxon Shipping spokesman, said the company expects to have the remaining million barrels of crude pumped out of the ship and into another tanker, the Exxon Baton Rouge, by tomorrow.

Those witnesses include the helmsman, the Coast Guard officer and the Port of Valdez pilot who helped guide the tanker through the initial phase of its movement through the sound. The officers' refusal to cooperate with the probe was unusual, and Woody said he was not sure what action could be taken to get the two men to talk. He added that an NTSB hearing on the accident that had been scheduled to begin in Anchorage on Tuesday has been postponed indefinitely.

Fulton have launched an investigation into the actions of the officers on board the ship and why Hazelwood was not on the bridge. Hazelwood's lawyer, Michael Williamson, could not be reached for comment. Meanwhile, the oil slick, which has spread to 575 square miles miles of the sound, continued to ooze slowly into hundreds of inlets, lagoons and beaches along the sound, Coast Guard officials said. In several places, witnesses spotted seabirds and mammals coated with oil and the animals were trying to lick themselves clean. Norfolk.
