Page 2 A I Friday, July 14,1972 Summary The World FISCHER FORFEITS Bobby Fischer stayed in bed, so once again the world chess championship was in doubt. The 29-year-old American challenger failed to show for his second game the Reykavik, Iceland, against titleholder Boris Spassky of Russia to protest television cameras in the hall where they are playing. Referee Lothar Schmid awarded the game to Spassky, putting the Russian ahead two games to zero. TROOPS OCCUPY ESTATE Hundreds of British troops Friday occupied a former Protestant housing estate which they seized from the Irish Republican Army in their first concerted drive against an IRA stronghold. The battle for the area climaxed a 26-hour period in which five soldiers and three civilians died.

The Nation AGNEW OPENS CAMPAIGN Vice President Spiro T. Agnew opened his campaign against the Democrats by asking local media to offset a liberal bias of Washington reporters and commentators. Agnew told 1,750 Republicans at a $50-a-ticket dinner Thursday night, this was "the opening session of the real stop-McGovern movement." BUSES TEMPORARILY STOPPED The latest court action in the Detroit school desegregation case prevents the Detroit Board of Education from ordering any buses for use in a cross-district racial busing program until at least Monday. The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati Thursday issued a temporary stay of an order by U.S.

District Court Judge Stephen Roth that 295 buses be purchased this week for use in September. The State SECRET VACATION Gov. Preston Smith leaves Texas today for a secret vacation. He said he is taking the as yet unsigned $4.1 billion budget bill approved by the legislature to study at his leisure and in private. Smith did not say where he was going or how long he would stay there, but if he does not sign the bill on or before July 27, it would be the same thing as a veto.

ON OPPOSITE SIDES Reps. Graham Purcell, D- and Bob Price, two incumbents who were forced into running against each other this November, took opposing stands Thursday in the controversy over meat prices. Price backed President Nixon's efforts to stop rising prices by removing import quotas. Purcell said the action was unnecessary and accused the Nixon administration of "gutting the U.S. beef industry for years to NO ENDORSEMENT The state American Legion commander says the defense spending and Vietnam policy of Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern is unfavorable to most state legion members.

Gil Moody of Lubbock added however, neither he nor the Legion was taking a stand necessarily for or against McGovern or the Democratic Party's platform.

Sissy Takes Second By ROLAND LINOSEY MIAMI BEACH (UPI) -Texas Rep. Frances Farenthold finished as runner- up Thursday night in balloting to pick a vice presidential candidate to share the Democratic ticket with George McGovern.

Another Texan--black conservative newsman CJay Smothers of Dallas--was also among those nominated at the a i a i a Convention. Both he and Mrs. Farenthold'yielded their votes after the roll call of the states to the eventual winner, Sen. Thomas Eagleton of Missouri. But even that gesture of unity didn't come off without a flap for the Texans.

Mrs. Farenthold and two of the other candidates took the podium to relinquish their votes arid ask that Eagleton be nominated by acclamation, but Smothers was skipped over in that action. He and Dolph Briscoe, the party's nominee for governor, protested angrily to party officials for refusing to recognize Smothers, and Briscoe later walked out of the convention before McGovern and Eagleton spoke. Mrs. Farenthold got 407.4 votes for the vice presidential nomination, picking up support in 41 states after the national women's political caucus had joined her brief campaign.

"It was nice," she said after the balloting. "For a 24-hour campaign, I got about the same support I got running for governor for four months." Eagleton got the biggest single bloc of votes from Texas with 50, but backers of Alabama Gov. George Wallace's presidential hopes gave Smothers 45 votes. Mrs. Farenthold ran third in her native state, winning only 22 votes.

Other Texas votes included one for John Decarlo, five for Endicott Peabody, two for Sen. Mike Gravel of Alaska, one for Fred Samaan of San Antonio, one for Sen. Henry Jackson of Washington, and two for Joseph Montoya of New Mexico. Briscoe, who angered many 'of the Texas delegates Wednesday night by voting- first for Wallace, then for McGovern for the presidential nomination, voted for Eagleton for vice president "I support the right of the nominee to pick his running "And for that reason I voted for senator what's his name." He had complained earlier that Eagleton was "more liberal than McGovern." "I proved my point," Smothers said of his race. "No black man in the United States ever got as many votes for vice president as I did." Smothers said, however, he bolt the party in the presidential race.

"I will not vote for McGovern," he said. "My conscience would kill me." The Texas delegation came to the convention with most of its 130 members committed to a plan to "Stop McGovern."

"They realized they were in an untenable position. They realized they were going no further, and they released the girls unharmed," Jordan said.
