all over the Americas, a big delega-
tion from Cuba and actor John
Wayne, an old friend of Torrijos and
a supporter of his fight for Panama-
nian sovereignty over the canal.
The government declared a na-
tional holiday, and Panama City
was decorated with large signs pay-
ing tribute to Torrijoa. A big elec-
tric sign on the national lottery
building read: "3,650 Days of Strug-
gle and Valor.”
"Omar Has Fulfilled," said anoth-
er sign.
"The Torrijos government should
not be judged by the material
achievements that can speak for
themselves, such as acquiring the
canal for Panama, the Bayano Dam
and the Cerro Colorado Copper
Project," said one television com-
mentator.
"The most important thing the
Torrijos government is leaving the
country is nubility and balance.

cles taking these demands very
seriously.” said the Rev. John Long,
an officer of the Vatican's SecreUri-
at of Christian Unity.
He said he didn't believe press re-
ports that some of the cardinals had
asked for a formal Vatican stato-
ment on the matter. Others, Includ-
ing a spokesman for the U.S. cardi-
nals, also disputed the report.
The press clamor has been fueled
by the general climate of suspicion
in Italy resulting from the activities
of the Red Brigades and other ter-
rorists. But church experts concede
that another major factor has been
the Vatican's failure to make public
the pope's death certificate or to
give the full, official explanations
that would have been given after the
death of a chief of state or compara-
ble public figure
The Rev. Donald Campion, a
Jesuit expert on Vatican affairs,
conceded that a full, official medi-
cal report should have been issued
as soon as possible after the pope
died.
“It would have been easier to
squelch these rumors right away if
full information had been provided
at once, although there was no indi-
cation of anything sinister," he said.
He added that there "are always
people around who like to stir up
theories. They want to find some
kind of devil, some evil person who
did the pope in.”
At least 10 popes were killed or
died under suspicious circum-
stances in the Middle Ages, and
plots abounded in the 15th century
when members of the Borgia and
Medici families were popes. But
there is no record of an autopsy hav-
ing been performed on a pope, or of
demands for one. since 1830, when
Pius VIII died st the age of 69 after
a reign of 18 months.

BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (AP) — The 30th
game in the world chess championship match end-
ed in a draw today as the experts predicted it
would, leaving champion Anatoly Karpov in the
lead 5-4 and still needing one more victory to re-
tain the championship he got from Bobby Fischer
by defsult.
Challenger Viktor Korchnoi, who went Into the
30th game on the crest of back-to-back victories in
the 28th and 29th, offered Karpov a draw on the
34th move Tuesday night. The Soviet champion re-
jected the offer, then adjourned the game by seal-
ing his 42nd move.
This afternoon, after discussing the situation
with his advisers during the adjournment, Karpov
himself offered a draw, and Korchnoi accepted.
The non-Soviet experts were almost unanimous
in predicting a draw when the game was
adjourned. Each player had a rook and six pawns
left, and It la an axiom of world-class chess that
pawn-rook end games normally end in draws.
Klepov's sealed move was what the experts had
expected, a rook to king 4, putting Korchnoi's
black move in check They said Korchndi would
have moved out of check easily, and after several
more moves the game would have developed into
a repetition of moves, which is an automatic draw.

the pope's death had been raised.
- "We cannot understand why an
autopsy on Pope John Paul's body
was not performed," the paper said.
"The church had nothing to loee —
on the contrary much to gain — if
an autopsy had been conducted, es-
pecially since the Vatican constitu-
tion does not explicitly forbid such
an autopsy."
The next day an ultra-conserva-
tive Italian Catholic lay organiza-
tion. Clvilta Cristiana, announced it
had petitioned the Vatican Courts of
Justice to “open a judicial inquiry
to ascertain the true causes" of the
pope’s death. But Cardinal Carlo
Confalonieri, dean of the College of
Cardinals, said there was no ques-
tlifh about the cause of the pope's
