North Korea called for the withdrawal of forces from the South.

Delegates to the biennial governing convention of the 3.2-million-member denomination wound up action on a mass of constitutional and bylaw changes to recast the church's functional framework into a sharply differing pattern. Restructuring is something of a vogue among churches.

Protestant, Roman Catholic and Eastern Orothdox. churches already have scuttled the old tables of organization and set up now ones. The churches say the change is essential for getting along in these swift-changing times. To fail to adjust old forms to cope with new conditions is "to risk institutional apathy and decay," said a restructure commission of the Lutheran Church in America. The crux of the Lutheran change, said the 's president, the Rev.

Dr. Robert J. Marshall, is "cooperative planning" from top to bottom. It slims down and tightens up the national church agencies, combining 15 of them into four divisions to make for more centralized coordination at the top, but it also provides for more voice at local levels in shaping general programs. The restructure plan for the Lutheran Church in America was drawn up over an 18-month period by a commission headed by W.

Lindstrom, national chairman of the Remember the Pueblo Committee, said yesterday he had "positive information" that American War prisoners were being transferred from North Vietnam to China.

Lindstrom gave a news conference during an airport stopover on his way to Sweden. He said that transports of American prisoners to China mainly by boat had been speeded up since Aoril 20. Me said that as recently as June 4-6, nine American pilots had been transferred from North Vietnam camps to China. HE CLAIMED that Henry A. Kissinger had tried, but failed, to get these or any other prisoners released.

Kissinger, President Nixon's special adviser, was in Peking last month. Lindstrom complained that no one ever thought of the American prisoners in the hands of the Pathet Lao in Laos. The Remember the Pueblo Committee was founded after the seizure of the U.S. Navy vessel Pueblo by North Koreans in 1968 to press for the release of the 82 crew members. IN 1969 IT expanded it's activities to seek to secure the release of any U.S.

citizen, "illegally imprisoned" in any foreign country. Lindstrom is visiting Scandi-navi i to win support for the Douglas MacArthur Brigade a group of U.S. Vietnam veterans and mercenaries recruited to rescue American prisoners. Lindstrom said influential military men in Saigon wanted to organize raids to free the prisoners, but were denied permission Washington. The brigade of 150 men is ready to liberate the war prisoners soon, Lindstrom said.

The planned raids would be aimed at North Vietnam, north Cambodia and north Laos, he said.

The first friendly contact between the nations began last September when Red Cross officials of North and South Korea opened talks to arrange communications between divided families, involving an estimated 10 million persons.

The governments agreed to cooperate in bringing the talks to successful conclusion. In reaching the accord, the two Koreas may have decided confrontations or to join the movement toward East-West dentente that followed President Nixon's visits to Peking and Moscow. Washington greeted the accord with praise, saying it "could have a salutory impact on prospects for peace and stability on the Korean peninsula." Britain called the accord "a most important development." However, Nationalist China expressed concern. South Korea has a population of more than 32 million and a army. North Korea, with a larger area, has a population of only 14 million and an army of 340,000.

OLIVES liffiWEM Spassky's Move Seen as Order From Moscow (Continued from Page 1) sian. It created the impression that he was acting on Moscow's orders.

A dispatch by Tass, the official Soviet news agency, said Spassky had demanded that the International Chess Federationknown as FIDE-take some pun ishing measures gainst Fischer on the grounds that he had violated the rules for the match. It did not specify what sort of measures should be taken. There was another indication that Spassky's moves were being plotted in Moscow. After an attempt to come to terms with Fischer's people at a private meeting yesterday afternoon, Spassky and his second, Yefim Geller, drove grimly to the Soviet Embassy, presumably for consultations. Asked what Fischer's opinion of the new dispute was Euwe told newsmen, "Mr.

Fischer is asleep and Is not aware of this." In New York, meanwhile, Col. E. B. Edmondson, director of the U.S. Chess Federation, said if either Fischer or Spassky fails to show up for Thursday's match the title should go to the other hy default.

He said that if neither showed up, "the title should be declared vacant and they should start all over." He said he was expressing his opinion as a member of the five-man advisory board of FIDE. "This has gone far enough," Edmondson said. "You cannot go on with this kind of charade." Man Admits Hit and Run BELLE VERNON (AP)-A man who said he was the driver of a hit-and-run auto that struck two injured motorcyclists near here Sunday has turned himself in to State Police. Troopers said Steve Matko of Monessen would be arraigned on charges of failing to stop at the scene of an accident. According to the Matko told police he did not stop because he thought he saw a flashlight waving him on.

Kenneth Kutcha, 21, of La-trobe, operator of the motorcycle that overturned along Interstate 70, was fatally injured. A passenger on the motorcycle, 18-year-old Paula Miller of Monessen, was listed in serious condition yesterday at Presbyterian-University s-pital in Pittsburgh. Tenant Shot By Landlord A Wilkinsburg man was shot by his landlord last night during an argument in which the landlord's wife jumped out of a second-story window to avoid being shot herself, police said. Police said the landlord, Robert Ford, 38, of 1376 Lake-ton Road, was arguing with Michael Hale, 21, and Ford suddenly grabbed a pistol and shot Hale in the chest. When Ford's wife, Mary, came between the men, according to police, Ford aimed at her also.

She leaped out the window and landed on her feet, but suffered a broken right leg. After the shooting police said, Ford fled to a relative's home in Homewood, where he was arrested. Both Hale and Mrs. Ford were in fair condition last night in Columbia Hospital. Police said they could not determine immediately what the argument was about.

tween Seoul, South Korea's capital, and Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, was the outcome of a recent round of secret high-level negotiations. SIMULTANEOUS announcements in both cities said the accord provides for a joint political committee to open exchanges in many fields and to promote unification of North and South through peaceful means without out-s i interference. The two governments also agreed to refrain from armed provocations and from slandering or defaming each other. THE TWO SIDES agreed to install the hot line "in order to prevent the outbreak of unexpected military incidents and to deal directly, promptly and accurately with problems" arising between them, the announcement said. The agreements were reached at meetings in Pyongyang May 2-5 and Seoul May 1.

The governments' top leaders, President Chung Hee Park of South Korea and North Korean premier and Communist party chief Kim Il-sung, took part. U.N. Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim announced in Geneva that he acted as a go-between. Waldheim said he made contact with North Korean representatives during a visit to Vienna last March. "They informed me of their position and mentioned a number of suggestions," he said.

"I informed the South Korean government." The -r negotations were the first such contact reported between the two governments since the 1950-53 Korean War that took two million lives, including 33,629 Americans killed in action and 20,617 Americans who died of other causes. The conflict ended in an armistice July 28, 1953, and the two Koreas still are officially at war, with even mail exchange severed.

He was drafted, refused induction, was convicted and sentenced to five years in jail. "The conviction was reversed by the appellate court," says attorney Michael P. Malakoff, who was himself a conscientious objector before taking on numerous draft resistance cases here. "That was the only just way for the case to work out. I mean, that fellow obviously had every intention of serving his country.

He had already done so for four years. What a waste to have him imprisoned for five years." A second offender was a well-educated and vocal opponent of the Vietnamese war, whose first indictment here for a Selective Service violation was dismissed because of a Supreme Court ruling. But the local board re-processed him after the dismissal and he was reordered to report for military service.

He was sentenced to two months in jail and $2,200 in fines after the judge noted the defendants "exemplary" record and dedicated work with handicapped children.

A THIRD MAN' who faced sentencing for an identical crime is spending three years in jail. The judge obviously considered the numerous state criminal charges already lodged against the man and the testimony of a narcotics agent who had investigated the charges. Although a Selective Service offender will most likely spend some time in jail after conviction, most of those indicted never get to trial.

"If the defendant doesn't submit, his attorney's biggest hope in these cases is to pro-'duce enough irregularities in the draft board's operations to have the indictment dismissed before the trial stage," says Malakoff. "This is such a new area of law that a little digging can often uncover procedural flaws that can invalidate a classification change or an induction notice." Tf the' indictment isn't dismissed by a federal judge in Pittsburgh, it can still be overturned by U.S.

About 1,000 more shells blasted government positions on Hue's western front and attacked by North Vietnamese ground troops. Officials claimed 46 enemy killed and put South Vietnamese casualties at seven killed and 17 wounded.

F'ar to the south, a major battle was reported at Kom-pong Rau in the Parrot's Beak area of Cambodia. South Vietnamese spokesmen reported 123 enemy killed at a cost of 18 government troops killed and 5fi wounded. Saigon also claimed 59 enemy were killed along Highway 13 north of the capital and 100 more by air strikes in a new battle area around Phuoc Binh, a district town 75 miles to the northeast.
