Court ordered the district bench to rewrite its decision in the California case in accordance with an opinion not yet filed. The Circuit Court rejected the appeal of Daley's forces in one case and in two others di- erected that state court action 1 be prohibited insofar as the 'delegates from Illinois whic were rejected by the committee are concerned.

The brief order of the appeals court carried no reasons for the nntism rv iitrlrrnc nova rv pected to file opinions ater in the day. The District Court ruled Monday that the federal judiciary had no place in the debate over delegates from the two states. The Credentials Committee had issued decisions that stripped Sen. George S. McGovern of 151 California delegates and told Mayor Richard J.

Daley and 58 other uncommitted Chicago delegates to stay home. The committee decisions were likened to a "self-destruct button" by the party's lawyer Tuesday even as he fought to uphold them before the appeals court a U.S. District Court which prompted the Ffth of July appeal. McGovern and Daley forces appealed in their fight to over- uaiey. me winner-take-all prize of the Cal ifornia presidential primary from McGovern to award the state's 271 delegates proportionately among candidates, based on their percentage of the vote.

Meanwhile, the Credentials Committee completed its pre-convention agenda and passed on to the convention the job of settling 13 contests over the seating of hundreds of dele- a I hpariprf McGovern: that women, voung CT people and minorities be represented at the convention ki proportion to their population.
