Stan Bregman, Humphrey's chief legal adviser on the California issue, declined to comment on whether he thought the appeals court decision left room for a floor fight at the convention. "I can't foresee the Supreme Court not overturning it," Bregman said of the appeals By CLARK HOYT Of Our Washington Bureau MIAMI BEACH. Hubert Humphrey will do everything short of openly defying the U. S.

Supreme Court to force a showdown on the California delegate controversy when the Democratic National Convention opens Monday night, his campaign manager said Thursday. "I'm planning on the fact that there's going to be a credentials fight," Minneapolis attorney Jack L. Chestnut said. "If the law doesn't permit it, then we won't do it, but I think it does. That's my per- sonal legal opinion," said Chestnut.

BUT CHESTNUT said that Humphrey would not mount a floor fight if the Supreme Court hands down a clearly-worded order directing the seating of 151 California delegates previously stripped from Sen. George McGovern by the Democratic Credentials Committee. "We would not disobey the ruling of the court," Chestnut said during the briefing held at Humphrey's convention headquarters in the Carillon Hotel. The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Co Humphrey's favor by leaving him, at least temporarily, still with a share of the California delegates.

Chestnut said he was "pleased and gratified" by Burger's order and added, "we are prepared for a credentials fight on the floor." Chestnut said that even if the Supreme Court did uphold the appeals court, it might also write guidelines by which McGovern's California delegation could be challenged. IN ADDITION, he indicated that at least one of the attorneys advising the Humphrey campaign has suggested that the appeal court order is worded to apply cnly to the temporary roll-call of the convention. If that is the case, Chestnut, said, the disputed delegates" could be seated at the opemngll of the convention, then- hal-t: lenged before being permaJf nently seated.

Meanwhile in California, Eugene Wyman, a Beverly Hills attorney, and top Humphrey adviser, said that a slate of 108 California Humphrey delegates would not come' to Miami Beach if they are denied seats by the Democratic Credentials Committee acted unconstitutionally when it deprived McGovern of the California delegates.

The court ordered the seating cf a full, 271-mem-ber California delegation pledged to McGovern, the product of his victory in the June 6, winner-take-all California primary.

WASHINGTON (UPI). -Chief Justice Warren E.

Burger, temporarily delayed execution Thursday of lower court decisions which awarded Sen. George S. McGovern 192 disputed Democratic convention delegates. But he announced no decision on whether to summon the vacationing Supreme Court back to consider appeals by the losers in those decisions. Banning F.

Whittington, the court's press officers, said before the court offices closed for the night that some action was expected this morning. BURGER'S ORDER delayed implementation of the appellate court's rulings to award 151 California delegates to McGovern and to uphold the Democratic Credential Committee's ruling which ousted Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley's 59-member delegation. The delay gave Burger time to consider an urgent appeal from the Democratic National Committee that he reassemble the Supreme Court from its summer recess to consider overturning the California decision. Daley's group asked, too, that the Chicago decision be reversed.

McGovern stood to gain 41 delegates from the Chicago area if Daley's bid fails. Those delegates, along with the 151 from California, would assure him a first-ballot Presidential nomination when the roll is called in Miami Beach Wednesday night, McGovern's aides said. IT WAS PRESUMED here although no announcement was made that Burger was in contact with his colleagues on the Supreme Court in pondering the requests for an extraordinary session. Four other members of the court Justices Thurgood Marshall, Potter Stewart, Byron White and Harry Blackmun were present at the Supreme Court Thursday working along with Burger on the credentials cases, according the Whittington. IF BURGER had not issued his order, the U.

S. Court of Appeals' ruling in McGovern's favor would have gone into effect automatically Thursday afternoon. In other developments: SEN. FRED HARRIS of Oklahoma said he would lead a fight at the Democratic convention for a tax reform plank calling for closing of all individual and corporate tax loopholes, taxes on all sources of income and credits to replace current exemptions and deductions. -THE WELFARE REFORM PLAN of Sen.

McGovern won't be unveiled until after the Democratic convention, aides say. John Galbraith Line Action REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI). After more than a week of psychological warfare, chess geniuses Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky met face to face Thursday night with the Soviet champion drawing the white pieces which will give him the first move in their world championship showdown. Spassky, 35, the Soviet title-holder, and Fischer, the temperamental 29-year-old American challenger, play the first game in the $250,000 contest Tuesday. Fischer earlier sent Spassky a "Dear Boris" letter apologizing for my "petty dispute over money" which had delayed and threatened to cancel the 24-match championships.

A FEW HOURS LATER Spassky sent word that he was satisfied with the apology, and the two met for the drawing and to inspect the hall and playing facilities. Harry Golombek, a member of the central committee of the International Chess Federation (FIDE), announced that "the two players have now agreed to start the match on next Tuesday" in Reykjavik's sports hall. "Fischer has apologized in writing and the president of FIDE has declared that the rules of FIDE will be strictly followed in the future," Ef-raim Geller, Spassky's second, said. Geller also indicated that the Russians had given up their demand Fischer forfeit the first game, point because he failed to show up in time for the opening game originally scheduled for Sunday, July 2. Dear Boris: 'I'm Sorry, Simply Carried Away9 REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI).

Here is the text of Bobby Fischer's letter to Boris Spassky: Dear Boris, Please accept my sincerest apology for my disrespectful behavior in not attending the opening ceremony. I simply became carried away by my petty dispute over money with the Icelandic chess organizers. I have offended you and your country, the Soviet Union, where chess has a prestigious position. Also, I would like to apologize to Dr. Max Euwe, president of FIDE, to the match organizers in Iceland, to the thousands of chess fans around the world and especially to the millions of fans and the many friends I have in the United States.

After I did not show up for the first game, Dr. Euwe announced that the first game would be postponed without prejudice to me. At that time you made no protest. Now I am informed that the Russian Chess Federation is demanding that the first game be forfeited to you. The timing of this demand seems to place in doubt the motives for your federation's not insisting at the first for a forfeit of the first game.

If this forfeit demand were respected, it would place me at a tremendous handicap. Even without this handicap, you will have an advantage to begin with of needing 12 points out of 24 to retain your title whereas I will need 12.5 to win the world title. If this demand were granted, you would need only 11 points out of 23 but I would still need 12.5 out of my 23. In other words I must win three games without losses, just to-obtain the position you would have at the beginning of the match and (I) don't believe that the world champion desires such an advantage in order to play me. I know you to be a sportsman and a gentleman, and I am looking forward to some exciting chess games with you.

The Israeli Supreme Court on Thursday threw out a request by an Israeli lawyer that it rule that Jesus Christ got an unfair trial. Attorney Yitzhak David said he made the appeal "in the hope that it may reduce the anti-Semites of the world by even one person." But the court ruled that the issue was "historic, not juri-dicial," and that David had "not proved he suffered personal damage" through what he called a "miscarriage of justice" against Christ. IN AN EXTRAORDINARY HEARING, the three judges first asked Divid why he thought the Supreme Court should make the ruling.

"Because you are the first national Jewish court to arise since the time of Jesus," he replied. The argued that Jesus was tried by the Roman occupiers of Israel, not by a civilian court. But David said Christ was brought to trial before the Sanhedrin, the Jewish court of ancient times. The court insisted Christ was sentenced by the Romans, and that David should take the issue before an Italian court. David cite i Israeli laws empowering Israeli courts to rule on cases heard by the former Turkish and British occupiers of Palestine.
