Burger Thursday suspended implementation of the lower-court decision while he attempted to poll the other eight vacationing justices to determine if there was sufficient support for a special session. Should Burger call the court into emergency session, the justices might be expected to hold a hearing and announce a decision before the Democratic National Convention opens in Miami Beach Monday night. On the other hand, Burger could refuse the appeal, thus letting the Appeals Court decision stand.

OR HE COULD delay implementation of the Appeals Court order until the Supreme Court convenes its fall term, well after the convention ends. In that case, McGovern might be expected to ask the convention to overrule the Credentials Committee and return the 151 California votes to him. WASHINGTON (AP) The fate of a bloc of Democratic National Convention delegates that could give Sen. George McGovern a first-ballot presidential nomination rested today with the Supreme Court The court must decide whether to convene a rare special session to consider an appellate-court decision which returned to McGovern 151 California delegates he lost in a party Credentials Committee fight.

(AP Wirephoto) WASHINGTON (AP) AFL-CIO President George Meany headed for the Democratic National Convention today, reportedly determined to block the presidential nomination of Sen. George McGovern. Driven by personal as well as political antipathy, the labor titan has launched a drive that commands the sympathies of most union presidents if not their wholehearted support Some have voiced misgivings that an unrelenting anti McGovern campaign could destroy a tenuous party unity and encourage the re-election of President Nixon, like McGovern the target of numerous Meany barbs.

If McGovern wins the nomination despite Meany, labor leaders would be confronted with limited options, none palatable to them. Meany and his chief political strategist Al Barkan, were counting on union presidents to sway convention delegates away from McGovern, the front-runner on the verge of capturing the 1,509 delegates needed for nomination. "Barkan gave me the spiel labor people are going to try to stop McGovern on the first and second ballots," said Jerry Wurf, a McGovern supporter. 2nd PSA Hijacking Ends With Gunman's Surrender Hospital SAIGON (AP) South Viet-n a paratroopers and tanks forged into the heart of Quang Tri City today and seized control of two-thirds of the provincial capital that the North Vietnamese captured May 1. A huge American air and naval armada covered the advancing South Vietnamese.

SOUTH VIETNAMESE marines were closing in on the city from the east One task force was reported to have advanced half a mile to the eastern outskirts and was a little more than a mile east of the Citadel, at the center of the city. A second marine task force made a helicopter landing 2 miles southeast of the city. Lt. Col. Do Viet, a spokesman for the Saigon command, said that elements of a South Vietnamese paratroop battalion backed by tanks had pushed into the northern part of Quang Tri a few hours before dawn.

"They are right next to the Citadel," he said. Viet reported that resistance appeared to be light although the forwardmost troops of the battalion were shelled by 107mm rockets and long-range 130mm guns. "We control at least two-thirds of the city," Viet told newsmen. HEAVIER FIGHTING was reported on the southern and eastern fringes of the city. Viet reported 58 North Vietnamese killed and eight tanks destroyed on the outskirts.

Paratroopers on the southern side battled heavy counterattacks Thursday night from North Vietnamese forces making a stand in a line of old French villas. Scores of U.S. Navy jets from 7th Fleet carriers off the coast scrambled into the night skies to attack the Norm Vietnamese, their tanks, artillery and automatic weapons fire. It was the first stiff resistance the South Vietnamese paratroopers have encountered since they began tightening their grip on the southern edges of the city three days ago. Associated Press correspondent Holger Jensen reported that South Vietnamese tanks knocked out two Soviet-built PT76 light amphibious tanks used by the North Vietnamese and a paratrooper knocked out a third i a hand-fired antitank missile.

The other tanks fled into heavy thickets. BY MIDMORNING, mortars were still exploding on the South Vietnamese front lines. "Just keep pumping it in there, just keep them coming into that area," Capt. Gail Furrow, 32, of Urbana, Ohio, shouted into his radio as he directed U.S. fighter-bombers to the North Vietnamese tiior-tar positions.

Furrow is' an adviser with one of the South Vietnamese airborne battalions. "We're still taking 82mm mortar from that location," Furrow radioed as he stood on the clapboard wall of what was once an American barracks. He stood in a banana grove splashed with blood from wounded North Vietnamese soldiers who had retreated during the night. Bombs dropped by the American jets triggered a violent explosion behind the tree-lines and Furrow radioed the pilots: "We've probably knocked out his ammo. He's Eut in smoke so maybe he's urting." As the jets left to rearm, Furrow called in artillery on the North Vietnamese positions.

"The 82mm mortar has quit firing," he said. "I don't know whether we've hit him but he's not hitting us OAKLAND, Calif. (UPI) A gunman who hijacked a Pacific Southwest Airlines plane for $455,000 ransom surrendered early today and handed over his gun after a tense flight from San Diego. It was the second PSA airliner hijacking in two days. While the hijacker sat in the Boeing 737 plane on a runway with two hostages, the FBI disclosed it had identified him as Goodwin M.

Harrison. Before releasing 55 other passengers at San Diego, the hijacker said he wanted the Wallace rmmyf S'S3 il Leaves iff" 1 p- Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras I Dies money for "two organizations involved in the Mideast crisis." The ransom was paid with $450,000 in $100 bills, $4,000 in 10s. The money was delivered in a black satchel with handcuffs wrapped around it and authorities also provided a parachute. The plane took off from San Diego at 10:50 p.m., and after circling over the Oakland airport for nearly an hour, as FBI agents converged on the scene, landed at 1 ajn.

Another prospective choice is Metropolitan Kallinikos, who was named acting vice patriarch today after the death of Athenagoras. Athenagoras died at Balikli Greek Orthodox Hospital in Istanbul, succumbling to kidney failure following a massive loss of blood pressure, his doctors said. He broke his hip in a fall a week ago and was to have been flown to Vienna today or Saturday for orthopedic surgery. Johnson I Declare! By Malcolm Johnson Looking Forward At Convention Looking forward at (not especially to) next week's Democratic National Convention in Miami Beach McGovern seems unstoppable for the presidential nomination.

Even if the U.S. Supreme Court should reverse that lower court award of disputed California and Illinois delegates to him, convention psychology should accrue to him. He'll get to parade his bandwagon twice before any other candidate can begin to build and crank one first in the vote on acceptance of the Credentials committee delegate seating decisions, then on the nomination itself. A coalition could stop him, but where is the man they can thrust forward in his place? Humphrey's goose seems cooked. He may win delegates from McGovern in the credentials contest, but never enough to win the nomination in the face of resentment from Mc-Governites who would mark him as principal architect of their man's downfall.

A lot of them, remember, were parading at Chicago four years ago with signs that begged the party to "Dump the Perhaps even the old guard that went along with HHH to defeat in 1968 won't be inclined to try that track again.

Metropolitan Meliton, the 59-year-old archbishop of Chal-cedon, was mentioned as a likely successor. He was to preside over a meeting today with the other 11 archbishops of the Greek Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarchate to decide on funeral arrangements for Athenagoras. Later, at a date still to be announced, they will The hostages taken from San Diego to Oakland, along with the plane crew, were Jim Wil-1 i a and Capt. Lloyd G. Turner of the California Highway Patrol, who was traveling in plain clothes and was armed with a pistol.

Authorities said the hijacker did not know Turner was an officer or that he was armed. Both Turner and Williams had volunteered to act as hostages. The hijacker took over the plane at 5:20 p.m. Thursday on a flight from Oakland to Sacramento. Would You Believe Chess On Tuesday? REYKJAVIK, Ic land (UPI) -After two weeks of behind-the-scene diplomacy and much talking, Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky have agreed to get down to their real business playing chess.

The match for the world title now held by the 35-year-old Russian will begin Tuesday in the Icelandic capital. The winner gets $150,000 and the loser $100,000. Spassky, a handsome Leningrad journalist who makes a living playing chess the year around, will make the first move. He won the draw Thursday night and will play white, meaning he will make the first move. The 29-year-old American will play black in the first game.

In succeeding games they alternate. Despite the charges and countercharges exchanged between the two camps there was no sign of personal animosity between the two. When Spassky was intro-duced at the draw, Fischer applauded. And when the challenger, dressed in a green suit and red tie, was presented, Spassky gave him a big hand. SILVER SPRING, Md.

(AP) George C. Wallace ended 54 days of hospitalization Friday with thanks to those who "saved my life" and sped toward resumption of his governorship in Alabama and his for the presidency in Miami Beach. "I feel good, I feel great" Wallace declared. The disabled governor was pushed in his wheelchair to a limousine amidst the applause of several score of spectators for a motorcade to nearby Andrews Air Force Base and the flight south in an Air Force hospital plane. BUT WALLACE, wounded May 15 at a political rally in Laurel, first paused briefly to thank government and hospital officials and staff members for the care they accorded him.

In an accompanying written statement at Holy Cross Hospital Wallace said "Sister Helen Marie, the doctors, sisters and staff of the hospital will always hold a very dear place in my heart. They saved my life, and I wish God's blessings to all of them." Wallace wore a blue and white striped summer suit with blue shirt and red and blue tie for his flight back toward active political participation. As he shook hands with hospital staffers and other well-wishers, and saluted toward news photographers, it almost seemed as if he were already back on the campaign trail for the Democratic presidential nomination. THOSE ACCOMPANYING Wallace include his wife Cornelia and two daughters, Peggy Sue and Lee. Drs.

Josepn Schanno and Herman Magan-zini, who have treated Wallace at Holy Cross, and Dr. George Traugh and Judy Cantry, rehabilitation specialists from the University of Alabama's Birmingham Medical Center, also are going.
