S. SAVINGS BONDS THIS WEEK'S SPECIAL BUTTER ORIENTATION SESSION Some 250 members of the Florida Highway Patrol marched into Miami Beach's Convention Hall for an orientation session yesterday.

A rousing and resounding display of pyrotechnics was staged by the Zambelli Fireworks Manufacturing Company of New Castle and many residents felt that the fireworks were among the best in recent years.

A colorful aerial finale with the traditional U.S. Flag ground display entertained the Packard Park crowd.

Don Pagano took two rugs to a local cleaner. An employe of the firm called her this week and asked if she wanted to pick them up. The rugs apparently had been shuffled into storage and forgotten. "It was terribly embarrasing," Mrs. Pagano said.

"I didn't remember until they called." Refuses (Continued from Page 1) ored sense of fair play. We do noV change the rules of the game after the game is over." Sen. 'Hubert H. Humphrey was the chief beneficiary of the committee decision to apportion the California delegates among all candidates in that primary. His press secretary, Jack L.

Chestnut, said in Miami Beach he was confident the convention would vote to support the delegate split-up. In the twin appeals, the party hierarchy was defending the Credentials Committee action in the California case, upset by the lower court, and the Daley contingent argued on the other side that the courts should upset the committee once more and restore convention seats to the Daley delegates. The lower court upheld the committee in that case, and had set steps in motion to block Illinois state courts from intervening in the case. Justices Byron White and WiUiam O. Douglas also dissented from the court's opinion.

Although it aid not pass on the appellate court ruling ordering the seating of the McGovern and anti-Daley delegates, the Supreme Court majority said "we entertain grave doubts as to the action taken by the court of appeals." Over 100 Notables to Aid Democrat Telethon LOS ANGELES (AP) The Democratic National Committee has enlisted more than 100 entertainment and sporrs personalities to raise funds in an telethon this weak- end.

That left the front-running McGovern with 1,307.15 first- ballot votes 205.85 short of the 1,509 needed to win the nomination but far ahead of Humphrey's 507.55, Gov. George C.

Wallace's 387 and Muskie's 237.05. A total of 402.65 are uncommitted, the rest scattered. Eight of the Supreme Court's nine members Justice William J. Brennan Jr. was absent but voted with the majority deliberated much of the day before overturning Wednesday's decision by the U.S.

Circuit Court for the District of Columbia "in light of the availability of the convention as -a forum to review the recommendations of the Credentials Committee." Humphrey's campaign manager, Jack Chestnut, predicted the convention will "decisively confirm the Credentials Committee report" apportioning the California delegates. He called on all Democratic hopefuls to pledge support for the eventual nominee, a slap at McGovern's threat to withhold support if the California ase leads him to lose the nomination. Muskie, still not directly supporting the Credentials Committee action that had the backing of his supporters on that panel, praised the court, scored "unjustified" criticism of the Credentials Committee and urged the convention to consider whether its recommendations "insure fair representation at our convention of all of the nation's Democrats." Jackson, who predicted that leaders of organized labor would repudiate McGovern the coming week, charged in praising the court that McGovern "has been afraid to put his faith in the National at ic Convention which is made up of delegates elected under the very guidelines he wrote." A spokesman for Mills said the Arkansas congressman was "heartened by the decision." McGovern said in his statement that the decision means "it is now the responsibility of the delegates to the National Convention to protect the rule of law and the nation's time- honored sense of fair play.
