I 00' By STEPHENS BROENING Associated Press Writer REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Considerable progress wss reported Friday night in 11th hour negotiations over Bobby Fischer's demand for more money from the world chew championship with Boris Spassky of Russia. Officials of the sponsoring Icelandic Chess Federation met with Andrew Davis, Fischer's lawyer and confidant, but said there was still no guarantee that the 29-year-old American would show up.

The 24-game match starts Sunday. Meanwhile, Fischer missed a flight Friday to Reykjavik. He booked a reservation and checked his baggage, but after, holding the plane up for two hours demanded his luggage back and disappeared from New York's Kennedy International Airport. The financial dispute with the Icelandic Chess Federation involves Fischer's demand for 30 per cent of the gate receipts at the 2,500 Sports Palace where the matches will be held. Tickets are 85 apiece.

A federation spokesman said Davis wss seeking a compromise over the money snarl. But Gutmunder Thorarisson, ICF president who talked with Fischer's representatives in the United States for much of Friday night, said later that "noth Pay Raise WASHINGTON (AP) Tht bMd of the government's Pay Board uyi the 5.5-per-cent guideline for pay ralaea may be changed la order to keep in-flatlon within desired "It may very well be the standard will stay," Chairman George H.

In his address Friday at the National Press Club, Boldt gave no indication how soon there may be a decision, but said: "The necessary staff research la under way and should be ready for early study by the board." Boldt also said the board will hold public meetings In several cities this summer to let Americans make critkritnls and suggestions about-Pay Board regulations. The hearings will be held In Chicago, San Atlanta, Washington, and perhaps other cities, Boldt said.

In another development affecting wages, the Cost of Living Council refused to exempt dentists, barbers, beauticians, symphony-orchestra members and California policemen from federal wage controls. All of the groups had applied to the council to be free of Pay Board Jurisdiction over their salaries. President Nixon discussed food prices for an hour with the council Friday, and then the panel talked about the matter for more than an hour after he left. White House Press Secretary Ronald L. Ziegler said Nixon told the council to explore "ev-eryfeasible action" to provide quality food at reasonable prices.

As part of the effort, Ziegler council will meet soon wjth representatives of supermarket chains, food processors, distributors and importers, and spokesmen for unions with USS Wasp Headed For Scrap Heap QUONSET POINT, R.I. (AP) The aircraft carrier USS Wasp, which helped rip apart the Japanese war machine in World War II, is headed for the scrap heap. The carrier, which also patrolled the blockade line during the Cuban missile crisis and. 1 plucked returning American astronauts from the ocean, will be decommissioned and put up for bid today at the Quonset Point Naval Air Station. The Wasp, as tall as a 23-story building and three football fields long, was assigned here in 1968 and put up for bid.

From the scrap yard, its tons of steel will likely be sold to make razor blades. The Navy has decided it would cost too much to replace the 28-year-old ship's three pro-. pellor shafts, which have fa- tiguei cracks, and make other repairs.

By previous agreement, Fischer and Spassky are to divide the 8125,000 purse, with the winner getting five-eighths, and receiving 30 per cent of the sales of television and film rights.

The B-l bomber is designed to replace the strategic command's aging stratofortress fleet. The newest of the long range manned bombers still in service but long out of production is-10 years old. The triton missile system is designed to follow the Polaris-Poseidon fleet which Thurmond said is "currently considered invulnerable to any known means of attack." The existing fleet of 41 missile subs includes 31 to be converted to the multi-warhead Poseidon model by 1977. The remaining 10 will carry the Polaris A-3 missile limited to three warheads on each of the 16 missiles.

Range of the existing missile fleet would be doubled to approximately 5,000 miles with the proposed Triton fleet. Each of the new submarine launching pads could carry 24 of the new missiles. Ships such as the South Carolina, Thurmond said, exemplify "our determination to maintain the kind of flexibility which alone can cope with foreseeable, military emergencies below the nuclear threshhold." Other responsive elements of conventional fleets in the future, Thurmond said, include 30. new destroyers in the Spruance class, and a total of 46 Knox class destroyer escorts. After considerable debate, both in Congress and in the executive branch, funds are being requested for a fourth nuclear poweredcafrier, Thurmond said.
