DIED. Dusko Popov, 69, who as a double agent for British intelligence during World War II warned that the Japanese were planning to attack the United States at Pearl Harbor and helped divert Nazi troops from the site of the Allied invasion at Normandy; after a long illness; in Opio, France. The Yugoslav-born Popov passed false information to the Nazis under the code name Tricycle, and was said to be a model for Ian Fleming's fictional spy hero James Bond...

Max von Sydow is the German officer who conceives the contest -a gentleman anti-Nazi who thinks nations should settle their disputes in games. Michael Caine, player-coach of the Allied team, is working class and quite bedeviled by the Oxbridge types who run the escape committee and deplore people who play boys' games when there's a war on. They...
