CHESS POINTS Junior match in Puerto Rico By ROSS WILLIAMS The World Chess Feder- ation ( FIDE )-sponsored World Junior Championship for 1975 will be held in Ponce, Puerto Rico, ,beginning Aug. 3. . Each member nation .in FIDE can send one player to this tournament, with the country hosting the event en- titled to two: Contestants must be under 20 years of age as of Sept. 1 of the tourna- ment year, ° Selection of the U.S. repre- sentative is made in the, U.S. .f Moor Championship Tour- .. afnent, One of -the prizes for winning the U.S. junior title is an all -expense -paid trip to the world championship eve$. 1975 will•mark the 14th\an- niversary of this event which started' in 1951. It was held every second year until 1973 when FIDE decided to make it an annual event. The junior championship has not been dominated by any one nation. Russian and Yugoslavian representatives have held the championship six times - three for each country. Argentina has had the title twice. Six other na- tions have been onetime win- ners. William Lombardy won the event for the United States in 1957 with a spectacular re- sult. He won all of his games, and that achievement has not been matched. Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union, former men's world champion, was undefeated when he won the title two years earlier in 1955. He had seven wins and two draws. One \ of his draws was with U.S. representative Edmar Mednis, who was also unde- feated in the tournament. Mednis had fewer total wins than Spassky, and finished second. Anatoly Karpov of the Sovi- et Union, present men's world champion, won the junior title in 1969 with nine wins and two draws. Finial - fourth that year was Julio Kaplan, Puerto Rico, who won the title two years earlier at the age of 17. Kaplan now lives in New York, and is ranked 10th among top active U.S. players - England hosted the first junior championship in 1951, and one of its representatives finished second. England didn'tget that close again un- til 20 years later when again it hosted the tournament in 1971, and again one of its rep- resentatives finished second. That year England's Anthony Miles won . his game against the winner, U.S.S.R.'s A. Belyaysky, but didn't have enough total points to beat him in the tournament. Tony Miles came back last year and won the 1974 world junior title ,in the tournament at Manila, Philippines. ``This FIDE tournament is the most important annual milestone for juniors. Nation- al events leading up to it pro- vide a ' healthy worldwide competitive stimulus to young players. Game of the Week: Belyav- sky was the pretournament favorite to win the junior title in 1973. He eventually won the tournament, but he had two losses which came close to changing the order of finish. This is his game against Tony Miles. TV viewers told to take `tum break' Slumping in chairs watch- ing too much television has led to an "epidemic of TV tummy," according to Doug- las Drysdale of the British Naturopathic and Osteopath- ic Association,.who said that regular viewers were seeking treatment more and more for backache, stomach disorders and bad circulation in the legs. Drysdale advised viewers to get up and walk around every 45 minutes, to get some exercise.

H. GORDON GREEN Next year the United States will celebrate the two hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and at the centre of all the gala activities of that celebration will be the Liberty Bell. It sits in the State House of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia where .it arrived ;from England back in 1752. It cracked before it was hung and was twice recast. In 1835 it cracked again, and this time the crack was allowed to remain. There have been conjectures about what that persistent crack may symbolize. The more patrio- tic of Americans refuse to believe that it symbolizes anything but shoddy English workmanship. The point is that the bell was in full working order in July of 1776 when representatives of the 13 New England colonies met in the State House beneath it to hear the reading of the Declaration of In- dependence. The bell was rung before that historic meeting and afterward, as the delegates from 12 of the 13 colonies began to affix their signatures to the document. Norris Vines and Company doing a ballad at Listowel's Twin Gables, hitting the high notes. The Declaration, which was largely the work of a young idealist from Virginia, began with the words : "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their o creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are 'life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."' Many of the delegates were slave owners, but few of them had any hesitation about signing. .Today visitors from all over America come to see that bell. If America has a Mecca, this is it. But a recent visitor from New Jersey, a man named Michael Cameron, tells the editor of his paper that when he took his family in to see the bell, he got a reprimand. "What we had done," he says, "is that instead of mov- ing along with the crowd which was touring Independence Hall section by section, we took a little short cut. We walked outside the prescribed tour path and drew near to the big bell so that we , could see it, and touch it: That was when we got the reprimand. The uniformed young miss who stands beside the bell wouldn't let us touch it. 'Stay with your group, ' please!' she said smartly." Cameron smarted a little fro the order and he began to think about why, in the Land of the Free, it is now considered irn- • proper and out of order to leave the group. "And suddenly," he says, "I knew everything about oppression and the lack of free- dom. It starts when you become afraid to leave the group, or upset the applecart, or rock the boat, or tell a tour guide that it's your bell, and you're going to stand where you damn well riolease to have a look at it!" Cameron admits that he was angry when he finally left that hall they call "Independence". I'm pretty sure our feelings were similar to those 56 famous people who signed their names here two centuries ago," he says. Pwonder, if Michael Cameron's anger keeps him thinking about it, if he too won't come up with an answer to the mystery of why the Liberty Bell persists in cracking.
