La Crosse Tribune, Wednesday, July 5, U.S. Jets Blast 3 Depots Near Hanoi SAIGON (AP) American jets wrecked three major depots on the edges of Hanoi Tuesday in 'the heaviest raids on North in weeks, and a 7th Fleet task force sank or damaged 12 supply barges off the North Vietnamese coast, the U.S. Command announced today. In South Vietnam there was fighting on the northern front and Hue was shelled for the fourth day. But no progress was reported from the paratroopers who reached the outskirts of Quang Tri City on Tuesday.

North Vietnam claimed that U.S. planes bombed and strafed residential areas of Hanoi, or injuring many persons, and destroying or damaging hundreds of dwelling The U.S. Command denied ordering any attacks on civilian targets and said it had no information other than military targets were But spokesmen acknowledged there may have been people working in the three supply and vehicle depots that were attacked during more than 320 strikes in North Vietnam Tuesday. North Vietnam also claimed that two F4 Phantoms were shot down during the raids. The U.S.

Command said it had no plane losses Tuesday to report yet. But it did announce that MIG21 interceptors shot down a pair of Phantoms southwest of Hanoi on June 27 and a surface-to-air missile brought down a third Phantom 40 miles northeast of Hanoi July 1. Two of the fliers were rescued, and four are missing, the command said. During the last two weeks, the U.S. Command has reported nine planes lost over North Vietnam and 16 fliers missing, raising the toll since the resumption of full- scale bombing on April 6 to 54 aircraft downed and 61 airmen missing.

In a delayed report which apparently had to be cleared by the Pentagon because of its political sensitivity, the command said that a naval task force last Saturday caught a flotilla of barges transporting supplies from offshore freighters presumed to be from the Communist bloc. Navy spokesmen said the destroyers Berkeley, Everett F. Larson and Gurke waited until the barges were clear of the freighters, then blasted them with their five-inch guns. The spokesmen said the radarmen observed that 12 barges were sunk or damaged, but the ships were unable to identify the nationality of either the freighters or the barges because of darkness. Radio Hanoi claimed today that North Vietnam is getting war supplies by sea through 12 coastal points which the United States had not been able to close by mines or offshore patrols.

The broadcast did not locate any of the points. In South Vietnam, the U.S. Command said, American planes accidentally attacked South Vietnamese marines five miles southeast of Quang Tri City. The command said 11 marines were killed and 30 were wounded. Spokesmen said the attack is under investigation.

Small clashes were reported east of Quang Tri City, and South Vietnamese forces were reported WHY WAIT?

Iceland (AP) Bobby Fischer apologized today for delaying the start of his $300,000 chess match with world champion Boris Spassky of Russia. The American, whose dispute over prize money forced organizers to postpone the wSrld championship round, said he had TUEDli AC rilFCT the 8reatest for Spassky I ntltlflU VnfcJI as a man and as a player. The statement, prepared by lawyers, was read to newsmen by Max Euwe. president of the International Chess It was not known whether this would be sufficient to overcome Russian objections to starting the match. I In a statement Tuesday, Spassky said he would consider starting play only if Fischer paid the penalty for his behavior.

Spassky told The Associated 11 Press this afternoon he still-did i not know whether the match would begin Thursday. He said there would be an announcement by the Russian delegation later. After holding out for more money and getting it, the American challenger came to Iceland for the postponed open- ing match Tuesday. But Spassky walked out of the noon drawing to decide who would move first because Fischer was not present. He had sent his second, a Roman Catholic priest.

Officials announced a new 48- hour postponement of the opener, originally scheduled for last Sunday. They hoped both players would be ready to meet on Thursday. Fischer arrived in Reykjavik early Tuesday. The Icelandic Chess Federation had rejected his demand for 30 per cent of the gate receipts, but he agreed to come after a London investment banker doubled the $125,000 purse which he and Spassky will divide. The 29-year-old American grandmaster was resting from the overnight flight in a guarded villa at the edge of town when Spassky counterattacked it) the holdout department.

The 35-year-old Soviet champion read a prepared statement calling the conduct insulting and intolerable. It said Fischer, by refusing to appear at the opening ceremony last weekend, had insulted Spassky personally and the Soviet Chess Federation and had jeopardised his right to play for the title. The statement demanded that Fischer be punished. However, Max Euwe. president of the international federation.

said the Soviets had not formally requested punishiqgnt. should I he asked. him in the Fischer was staying away Jrom newsmen and did not comment on the Soviet statement. uo With the contribution from the London banker. James Slater, the winner is to get $156,250 the loser $93,750.

In addition, each player will get anqjher $75,000 from the television-and film rights. Minn. Youth Drowns In Guatemala ST. PAUL, Minn. Relatives of a St.
