UP) French Premier Fired: Messmer Is Successor BUFFALO, N.Y. (D A man who held his daughter at knife point in an apparent attempt to hijack an American Airlines 707 at Buffalo International Airport surrendered to an FBI agent early today. "He apparently decided he was not going to get out of the airport," said Richard Ash, special agent in charge of the FBI office here. "If there's no shooting, I'll come out," Ash quoted the man as saying moments before he emerged from the aircraft carrying the hostage child.

Blood on the child's clothing, he said, was from a slight wound the man had sustained, i Police identified the man as Charles Smith, 23, of Buffalo. The youngster was identified as Smith's 17-month old daughter, Jefuan. Smith will face a charge of attempted hijacking, the FBI said.

POLICE SAID Smith allegedly had stabbed the girl's mother and a man earlier today in Buffalo. The woman was reported "critical" and the man "fair" at Deaconess Hospital in Buffalo. Smith apparently slipped aboard the. unoccupied jet about 5 a.m. and demanded the American Airlines provide a pilot for the craft, police said.

"I want a pilot," he shouted to police and FBI agents who surrounded the plane as it stood at a terminal gate. A GROUP of FBI agents and police gathered near a ramp to the plane, using a baggage cart as a barricade. A minister and woman took turns using a bullhorn to call up to Smith. The woman, identified by an FBI agent as Smith's mother, walked part way up the ramp at one point, talked with Smith, then returned. Smith and his daughter were visible just inside the plane.

AN EXCHANGE of letters between the president and Chaban-Delmas noted Pompidou had asked the premier to leave the post he had held for a little more than three years. Messmer, 56, who had been De Gaulle's defense minister, had a long record as a soldier and admnistrator of France's overseas possessions. He fought in the French-Indochina war and was taken prisoner by the Viet Minh. THE DISMISSAL of Chaban-Delmas came quickly on the heels of his return with Pompidou from a summit conference in West Germany. Although there was no announcement as to the reasons for the firing, there was no sign the dismissal had anything to do with the meetings in Germany, which involved monetary policy, the Common Market and Europe's relations with the United States.

This may be primarily because in most Ohio school system there is no busing to achieve racial balance in the schools.

When busing was mentioned to many people interviewed, they thought it referred to transporting rural children to school. The Education Of Teddy In Tuesday's excerpt from "The Education of Edward Kennedy," author Burton Hersh, told how the shock of Chappaquiddick changed Ted Kennedy's style dramatically.
