Hearn pleaded guilty yesterday in U. S. District Court to embezzlement of less than $100 in postal funds. The charge, a misdemeanor, is a lesser offense than the felony for which Hearn was indicted in January by a federal grand jury embezzlement of $442 in postal funds from June 1, 1970, to Nov.

29, 1971. That charge is to be dropped at the time Hearn is sentenced. Even so, the charge to which Hearn pleaded guilty could bring him up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine. Hearn, 47, resigned Dec. 7, the day after an audit of the post office was completed, showing a shortage in stamp sales proceeds.

He had worked as a postal clerk for 12 years until he was appointed postmaster in 1964. Georgetown attorney James C. Sabo, who represents Hearn, asked Chief Judge Caleb M. Wright to allow him to present witnesses to testify on Hearn's behalf and for the judge to then impose sentence. Sabo said Hearn is known in his community for his generosity, civil service and outstanding citizenship.

"Sometimes acknowledgement of guilt is all the punishment a person needs," Sabo said. Wright, a Georgetown native, responded that he was aware of Hearn's good reputation and that he would consider any testimony in the defendant's befalf, but that it should be given to the court's presentence office. He explained that he wanted a persentence investigation before sentencing Hearn. classified as uncommitted, however, have said they are leaning to McGovern. The Credentials Committee stripped McGovern of the California delegates by deciding to apportion them among all candidates by the amount of votes each received in a presidential primary.

Daley, whose forces received a setback in the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington in their efforts to regain 59 seats at the Democratic National Convention, appears serious yesterday as he presides over a session of the Chicago City Council. It was Daley's first public appearance since the Democratic Party Credentials Committee rule against him last week. Narcotics Miami grants park use for demonstrators strike orce may be sent to Delaware By Joe Distelhehn Staff Correspondent MIAMI BEACH Demonstrators at next week's Democratic National Convention will be given the use of a park near Convention Hall as a campsite under the direction of the Rev. Ralph Abernathy.

The Miami Beach City Coun-c i 1 reversed itself on the campsite question yesterday after hearing low-key appeals from Abernathy and Rennie Davis, one of the Chicago 7 defendants, and eight hours of more passionate testimony from close to 100 persons. ABERNATHY made the request for his organization-the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and two others with which the SCLC has formed a coalition. These are the National Welfare rights Organization and the National Tenants Organization. All three are predominately "black people's" groups. The council changed its mind with the understanding that Abernathy will talk with leaders of other groups of non- ers as Illinois delegates to the presidential-nominating session.

In the same order the federal court blocked any state-court action that might affect its decision. This was another plus for the South Dakota senator since the Daley slate was uncommitted but a majority of the replacements favors Mc-Govern.

In an interview after the decision was made, Abernathy said he is confident that "it can be worked out where we can all have representation on the campsite." "It'll be wonderful," he said.

"We'll all be there as one big happy family." THE "family" apparently will comprise many diverse groups, many of whose spokesmen pleaded for their own campsites at yesterday's meetings. These include a small band of "gay power" advocates who wanted to camp on a beach, "Yippies," and their offshoots, who wanted to sleep on a golf course. Several "Zippies" did camp on a golf course Tuesday night, but were ignored by city officials. It was apparent yesterday that the leadership of Abernathy and the scaling down of previous estimates of non delegate numerical strength were the major factors leading to See MIAMI, Page 3, Col. 1 FIDE congress later this year in Skopje, Yugoslavia.

But Schmid said the Soviet demand that Fischer forfeit the first game and a crucial point in the battle for the world title-was still not com plctely solved. ONE other point to be settled is Spassky's demand for an apology from Fischer with the American's signature on it. No such document has yet been presented to the Russian world champion, but Dr. Euwe said he was satisfied that it would be forthcoming. Fischer presented an apology of sorts yesterday when he broke his silence with a statement regretting the delay of the match.

Fischer said it was not Spassky's fault that the match had been delayed and said he "respected grandmaster Spassky as a player and man." Russian officials said the statement was expected to satisfy Spassky if delivered to him with Fischer's signature attached. Dr. Euwe already fulfilled two other Soviet demands last night when he issued a condemnation of Fischer's behavior in failing to turn up in time and also admitted that he himself had violated the FIDE rules by granting a postponement of the first match.

2 hijackers, passenger dead in San Francisco gun battle By Bob Frump A special federal "strike force" may be sent to Delaware to deal with heroin pushers named in News-Journal investigative articles, the Bureau of Narcotic and Dangerous Drugs said yesterday. The strike force, a part of the federal Office of Drug Abuse Law Enforcement, would be composed of bureau agents, special district attor-neys and agents of the Internal Revenue Service. The concept of the combined-talent strike force is to put known pushers out of action. Even if the pushers are not caught red-handed exchanging heroin, the strike force might produce enough evidence to indict them on conspiracy charges or evasion of income tax. WORD of the strike force came yesterday from Richard C.

McGowan, the narcotic bureau's information officer. McGowan said the strike force for Delaware is not yet a certainty, but will probably be proposed in the near future. McGowan's statement followed a request by U.S. Sen. J.

Caleb Boggs, for resident federal drug agents in Delaware. McGowan said the See CONVENTION, 3, 3 the cockpit of the Pacific Southwest Airlines jetliner while the other died in a rear section.

He referred specifically to the News-Journal articles, and the list of heroin pushers published last week in an article written by reporters Jay Harris and Ralph S. Moyed. The pushers listed would be possible targets for the strike force, McGowan said. SPECIAL strike forces are operating in 25 cities across the nation now.

Wilmington had been considered for a strike force earlier but those plans were coincidentally shelved the day the first News-Journal article on heroin was published last week, informed sources within the federal narcotics bureau said. The complete series of articles and Boggs' letter apparently have brought the plans back off the shelf and into active consideration again.

Viets REYKJAVIK (UPI) The Boris Spassky-Bobby Fischer world chess championship match will open Sunday or Tuesday at the latest, the president of the International Chess Federation (FIDE) said early today. FIDE President Max Euwe said he felt the major outstanding differences had been settled at a meeting between FIDE, the Icelandic organizers and Spassky's advisers.

"The match will start on Sunday or at the latest Tucs-day," Dr. Euwe told reporters. But Lother Schmid, the FIDE arbiter of the match, warned that "this is if everything goes according to plan. Things can still go wrong," he added. SCHMID said the draw of lots to decide who is to play white in the first of the 24 games in the $250,000 match will be held at 4 p.m.
