State Delegates Jump On McGovem Bandwagon y-n in ii TOP of the NEWS By JOHN RAWL1NSON Star Political Writer MIAMI BEACH Arizona's delegation of the Democratic National Convention Tuesday began jumping on Sen. George MeGovern's ac celerating presidential nomination bandwagon with the announcement by two major opponents that they were quitting the race. John Ahearn, chairman of the Arizona McGovern delegation, confidently predicted that McGovern on the first ballot Wednesday, would receive at least 22 of Arizona's 25 national delegate votes. Sens. Hubert Humphrey and Edmund Muskie Tuesday announced they were leaving the race and released delegates committed to them.

U.S. Rep. Morris K. Udall, leader of the Arizona delegation, said he was switching his support to McGovern for the sake of party un-ity and also because he couldn't support Sen. Henry Jackson, or Alabama Gov.

George Wallace. Tucsonan Maclovio Barraza, a Muskie delegate, said he was "leaning strongly toward McGovern." The announcements by Humphrey and Muskie didn't particularly surprise the Arizona delegation and the general theme of their individual discussions with each other was one of party unity after the convention is over. Raul Castro and Sam Goddard didn't attend the Arizona caucus meeting Tuesday, but most Arizona delegates believe they will switch their support to McGovern. Both ate Muskie delegates. Laurens Sparling, IS, of Phoenix, and George Baca, of Morenci, both were Muskie -fc Convention Stories and Pictures, Page I4A I7A.

supporters and said they are switching to McGovern, Sparling said that "it is important for party unity that we support McGovern to get a different administration this fall." He said he would support McGovern now because he felt that is what the people who elected him a delegate would want him to do. Ahearn said he thought the six Arizona delegates elected to support New York Mayor John Lindsay would all vote for McGovern. State Rep. E. B.

Thode couldn't be contacted, but she had said earlier that she would vote for Jackson after a first ballot vote for Muskie. The only uncommitted delegates in doubt of supporting McGovern were Horace Bounds, a labor man from Tucson, and State Rep. Leon Thompson, D-Phoenix. Thompson, however, had earlier said he "could live with McGovern." Castro is expected to arrive in Miami Tues-day night and drive directly to the convention. He didn't arrive with the delegation Sunday and missed the opening night of the convention Monday.

Mike Sophy, from Phoenix, and on the Muskie election committee, said he thought It was "a good thing" that Humphrey had dropped out because "now we have a candidate." Sophy added, however, that he had hoped Muskie would remain in the race until the balloting, not for his candidacy's sake, but for appearances sake. The Arizona delegation voted In their caucus Tuesday to unanimously support the plank of the Democratic Party that favors boycotting lettuce in support of the farmworkers. Mrs. Thode. had said earlier that she would speak against adopting the plank, but she didn't attend the caucus.

Udall urged delegates in the Arizona convention to let more alternates take their places during the convention so everyone could participate in the convention voting. The Arizona representative warned his delegation that the Democratic platform "is one we in Arizona can stand on any attempts to liberalize it mav backfire." 100 AGAIN AND NO RAIN.

Amid waves of cheers from the convention minority supporting him, the crippled Alabama governor came to the convention in his wheelchair to argue his platform case.

The delegates correctly assumed that the victory would assure a Vatican Attempted To Release POWs igan.

But much of the convention listened in silence. McGovern tightened his control over the Democratic Party early today by halting the Wallace drive to rewrite its liberal 1972 platform. The packed hall roared its endorsement of platform planks calling for immediate withdrawal from Vietnam, busing of school children and payments to bolster incomes over the poverty line. Wallace won cheers and whistles from his supporters and a counter-barrage of boos from other delegates when he denounced "senseless, asinine busing of school children." But McGovern headquarters had sent out the word hours earlier: Vote "No!" on Wallace's entire package of dissenting planks. With the majority already pledged to McGovern as the presidential nominee, most of the delegates followed the McGovern line.

The convention took these McGovern-orient-ed positions, adopting them in separate votes that began at 1 a.m. (EDT), six hours after the second convention session opened: An "immediate and complete withdrawal of all U.S. forces in Indochina." The defeated Wallace plank called for release of all war prisoners as a precondition to ending hostilities. An endorsement of school busing as one means to further quality of education and racial balance. The Wallace plank proposed a ban on required busing for racial balance.

A call for abolition of capital punishment. Wallace's plank urged its preservation. A fairly strong call for control of pistols. Wallace asked endorsement of the citizens' right to bear arms. No reference to prayers in public schools.

Wallace had asked that they be permitted. An endorsement of strong anti-inflation curbs, including controls on profits, dividends, prices and1 executives' salaries as well as wages. The Wallace plank called for reliance on competition, not controls. Abolition of the present welfare system, and its replacement by a system of federal payments and other pay measures to assure all Americans of incomes above the poverty level. The Wallace plank called for higher Social Security payments, screening of welfare recipients and other measures.

His speech was vintage Wallace: law and ROME (AP) Secretary of State William P. Rogers disclosed Tuesday that the Vatican has tried to obtain the release of U.S. prisoners of war in North iVetnam but "so far to no avail." There have been hints that the Vatican has initiated contracts on behalf of the American prisoners, but this was believed the first time an American official has drawn a clear picture of the Holy See's efforts. Rogers spoke at a news conference in Rome shortly after meeting with Pope Paul VI for an hour in private audience at the Vatican. On the eve of the resumption of the Paris peace talks, the Pope told Rogers he hoped the negotiations would lead to a "realistic and final" agreement "according to the just wishes of all the Vietnamese people." The Pope has often deplored the Vietnam war, but lately has spoken our more forcefully on what he calls that "intolerable and bloody war." Rogers said the Vatican attempted "directly or indirectly" to try to arrange an exchange of prisoners of war; to obtain a report from the North Vietnamese about the missing; to assure the delivery of more mail to the prisoners and to assure that the North Vietnamese treat the prisoners in a humanitarian way according to the provisions of the Geneva Convention.

The Vatican communique, one of the longest ever issued after a papal audience with a government official, said: "Mr. Rogers stated the continuing desire of the United States for a prompt, negotiated solution to the Vietnam conflict and thanked the Holy Father for his tireless efforts on behalf of peace in that region and the whole world." At his news conference, Rogers said he was generally hopeful that the reopening of the peace talks might bring some movement 6y the North Vietnamese toward a settlement of the war. He gave these reasons: The North Vietnamese offensive has proved unsuccessful. The U.S. bombing of the North has been "unusually effective." President Nixon's trips to Moscow and Peking have produced a better climate for peace in the world.

The continuation of the war serves "nobody's interest." Rome was Rogers' last stop on a tour of nine nations. The secretary said several government leaders on his tour had suggested that the United States impose a political settlement on the South Vietnamese. Rogers said, however, that "we prefer to have those solutions worked out by the Vietnamese themselves." A North Vietnamese News Agency dispatch said Tuesday that Politburo member Le Due Tho is on his way back to Paris. He has secret-continued on Page 4A, Col. 7) I -I RELAXED AND CONTENTED, Sen.
