Garri Kasparov did not appear for Saturday's match, one of two semifinals in the. competition to find’ a chall- enger for the world title, after saying he rejected tho choice of Pasadena, Calif., as a site for the match. The World Chess Federa- tion (FIDE) declared Kor- chnoi, a Soviet defector now a Swiss national, winner b; default. acts The Soviet federation, by far the largest and most commanding’ element in FIDE, declared Tuesday: “The chess federation of the USSR considers unlawful the decision on declaring a winner of the contenders’ semi-final watch in Pasadena without playing it: At a Fide congress, which is to be held at the beginning of October this year, the USSR Chess Federation will bring up the question of revocation of this unjust decision.” A spokesman for the U.S. Chess Federation in New York said FIDE rules do not give players veto power over sites. - : “Unfortunately for the Soviets, players do not have veto power over the choice of the site,” said Randy Hough, technical director of the U.S. federation. a “There is nothing in the regulations that gives them veto power.” Chess experts in Moscow ‘ said if the Soviet ~ Union maintained its stance, it was doubtful world champion Anatolyt Karpov, a loyal Soviet Communist party member, would play any challenger unless the deci- sion was reversed.

McPHAIL'S RULING Yankees must play on their day off NEW YORK (AP) — Lee MacPhail has nothing on pitcher Dave Stieb as a Yankee-killer. New York Yankees came up losers twice Tuesday night, losing yet another dispute with American League president Lee MacPhail this season and then dropping an 8-0 baseball decision to Stieb and Toronto Blue Jays. é The players were upset with MacPhail’s ruling that they must complete the infamous George Brett-Pine Tar game against Kansas City Royals on Aug. 18, their only off-day in a 31-day stretch. Asked if all the pre-game fuss was distracting, Dave Winfield, the team's player representative, replied: “Quite a bit, t “So much so that I don't want to talk about it any more,” he . Manager Billy Martin was asked the same question, with a similar result. “I don’t even want to talk about that,” Martin said. “If you want to talk about the game, OK; other than the game don’t ask me any questions. a “Tm sick and tired of all that dirt.” TAKE Y LEAD The game was a foregone conclusion after the Blue Jays tagged Shane Rawley, 10-10, for three runs in the first inning. Stieb, 12-10, halted a personal three-game losing streak as well as a six-game Blue Jays skid by holding the Yankees to three hits after they had amassed 49 runs and 67 hits in their ‘previous five games. i “Getting a lead gives me a lot of incentive,” Stieb said. “I hadn't had one for a long time, a long time. “Things looked kind of gloomy for a while (he had siely 40 young people ore participating in the camp which en: dropped six of his previous seven decisions), but a lot of it jorrow. was bad luck.Aside from a couple of outings, I can't say I was -in a slump. I pitched well, but those darn bloopers were dropping in at the worst possible moments. I'm happy I won. It's about time. Tonight those balls to the warning track were caught. That's the difference between good luck and bad luck.” The Blue Jays remain “in the thick of things in the tight American League East. Although in fifth place, they Bruins of the’ National Hock- ey.

The Celtics have won the NBA championship 14 times, more than any other club. Last season, they finished second in the Eastern Con- ference's Atlantic Division. They lost four consecutive playoff games to Milwaukee Bucks. Tuesday night replied: “I just - got fed up with dealing with the Boston Garden.” But, the Celtics have signed a new four-year lease to play at the Garden, whose owners also own Boston Shoelace costa victory HELSINKI (CP) — Amer- ican Edwin Moses has won 81 consecutive 400-mette hurd- les finals, yet he’s still looking for more. af ly goal is to win 100 in a row,’ Moses, the, world rec- ord holder who owns the six- fastest times in history and and own ‘he 1976: Olympic gold medal, said Tuesday after earning the gold with a ime of 47.50 seconds at the world track and field champ- fonships. Despite his victory, Moses was not satisfied with his result. “I can run a better race,’’ he said. “I was hoping to break the world record; but I couldn’t do it running three rounds (the heats Sunday, the Ds semifinals Monday the fin- al).’” In addition to the three gruelling races, Moses. was hampered In the final by a loose shoelace. At the eighth hurdle, he realized a knot had opened. “I couldn't stop to tie it. I been thought about it for only for a second.’’ That second perhaps cost him a shot at the world record of 47.13 he set July 3, 1960, at Milan. Moses has lost only once since the.1976 Games — to Harald Schmid of West Germany on Aug, 26, 1977. On Tuesday, he beat Schmid convincingly. men’s 4x100-metre relay team lost all hope of winning a medal in the finals today after being disqualified Tues- day in a qualifying heat. Race officials ruled Tony Sharpe was out of the ex- change zone when he took the final handoff from fellow-Tor- onto sprinter Desai Williams. A subsequent appeal by the was tossed out. “They took a long time to decide and I didn't see the video tape the jury looked at,” said Canadian sprint coach Charlie Francis of Tor- onto. ‘‘But we shouldn’t have been in that situation any- way.’’ Had the Canadian team not » it would have had the third-fastest time and been in the final. Moses was one of six champions crowned Tuesday. Two of the gold medals went to Soviet athletes — Sergey Litvinov in the ham- mer throw and Tamara By- kova in the women’s high jump.

The other gold medallists * were Italian Alberto Cova in . the men’s 10,000 metres in 28 minutes, 1.0 seconds, West German Willie Wuelbeck in he men’s 800 (1:43.65), East German Ramona Neubert in the heptathlon (6,714 points) and Czechoslovakia’s Jarmila Kratochvilova in the women’s 800 (1:54.68). HANDOFF LATE In the exchange, both Wil- liams and Sharpe said that while the handoff was late, , they felt it had taken place inside the 20-metre exchange area. H Ben Johnson of Toronto had run the first leg of the relay for Canada, with Tor- onto teenager Atlee Mahorn, a late replacement for the injured Sterling Hinds, run- ning the second and making up ground of Willie Gault of the American team, which finished first. The morning, disqualifica- tion signalled a disappointing day for Canada — except for Marita Payne of Concord, Ont., the only Canadien to gina of the Soviet.Union won the semifinal in 50.07. Failing to qualify in the same event, in which the top four from each semifinal ad- vanced, were Charmaine Crooks of Toronto, fifth in her heat in 51.96, and Molley Killingbeck of Toronto, sev-. enth in her race in 51.97. Debbie Brill of Mission, B.C., finished sixth in the women's high jump final. The 30-year-old veteran qualified Monday by jumping 1.90 metres, but could manage only 1.88 Tuesday. Gwen Wall of Saskatoon, sixth in 56.68, and Christine Slythe of Sherbrooke, Que., eighth in 58.53, failed to qualify for the final of the women’s 400-metre hurdles. Also failing to advance were Doug Hinds of Miss- issauga, Ont., sixth in a men’s 400-metre semifinal, and Mark Adam of Toronto, 11th in a heat of the men’s 3,000-metre steeplechase.

Phillies, Pirates end streaks By the Associated Pros Pittsburgh Birates and Phil- adelphia Phillies engaged in a little streak-breaking, much to the grief of Al Holland, who had not lost a game in relief since Sept. 17, 1981. The Pirates had lost five consecutive games to fall out of first place in the National League East, while Philadel- phia moved into the division lead with five consecutive triumphs. Holland, mean- while, had won 12 consecutive games dating back to April 27, 1982, when he lost a game as a starter. That all changed Tuesday night as Dave Parker smash- ed a two-run homer off Holl- and in the eighth inning to give Pittsburgh a 3-1 victory over the Phillies, In other National League ac- tion, it was Montreal Expos 7, ‘New York Mets 3; Chicago Cubs S, St. Louis Cardinals 3; Cincinnati Reds 5, Los Ange- ° les Dodgers 4; Atlanta Braves 7, San Francisco Giants 2 and San Diego Padres 3, Houston Astros 2, In the American League, while the top four teams in the East were losing, the newest challenger in the West continued its rush. Elsewh Blue Jays 8, New York Yank- ees 0; Chicago 6, Detroit Tigers 5; Cleveland Indians 4, Baltimore Orioles 3; Boston Red Sox 6, Texas Rangers 4; Kansas City Royals 8, Mil- waukee Brewers 2 and Calif- ornia Angels 8, Minnesota Twins 2. Baltimore still leads the East, while Detroit, Milwau- kee and the Yankees failed to gain ground. The Orioles are a half-game ahead of the Tigers, one in front of the Brewers, 1% ahead of New York Yankees and 2% in front of the Blue Jays. The loss cut Philadelphia's division lead to one game over Montreal and 1% over Pitts- burgh. Before Parker's homer, Jason Thompson had doubled off the right-field fence. The Pirates took a 1-0 lead off Phillies starter John Den- ny with an unearned run in the third. Johnny Ray singled with One out, advanced to third on a single by Bill Madlock and scored when second baseman Joe Morgan booted Thomp- son's grounder. The Phillies tied the score in the sixth on an infield single by Denny and Greg Gross’s triple. Expos? Mets 3 At Montreal, Al Oliver had three hits and scored after each one, including the game- winner on a sixth-inning sing- le by Warren Cromartie, as the Expos beat New York and ended the Mets’ four-game * winning streak, Braves 7 Giants 2 In Atlanta, Bob Watson followed a second-inning home run by Bob Horner with one of his own and added a run-scoring single to help the Braves beat San Francisco. Reds 5 Dodgers 4 At Cincinnati, Paul House- holder singled in the winning tun in the bottom of the ninth after Los Angeles had tied the score with two runs in the top of the inning.
