The Associated Press delegate count, which does not list officially uncommitted delegates who are leaning toward a candidate, showed McGovern with 1,436.65 votes. But Humphrey was mood to concede. He noted that the Supreme Court had not yet spoken, and argued further that the party itself would be the ultimate judge.

Humphrey conceded that it would be "quite a hassle" if the convention ignores the court. but said he felt it has the right to do so.

(AP) Dr. Champion Mathewson, 90. professor emeritus of metal lurgy and megallography at Yale and internationally known for his pioneer work in physical metallurgy, died Wednesday. He began a life-long teaching career at Yale in 1907 and retired as chairman of the Department of Metallurgy in 1950. Passenger, Two Hijackers Die in Gun Battle Aboard Jet Nuclear Units on Lakes Plant Discharges 'Pose No Threat' Associated Press Writer Radioactivity from nuclear power plants poses no threat to Lake Michigan- even at the highest discharge levels permitted by scientific group reported today.

A 1969-70 study of marine life in the lake was the basis for the report by Environmental Research Group Inc. of Ann Arbor, Mich. Samples for the study were collected by the University of Michigan's Great Lakes Research Division. Dr. Richard A.

Copeland, president of Environmental Research Group said in a telephone interview from California that radioactive concentrations among Lake Michigan marine life even come close to the maximum." The study, paid for by, utility companies servicing areas bordering Lake Michigan, covered more than 30 different radioactive elements which might be discharged from a nuclear power plant. Existing Conditions Based upon the fact that radioactive, elements will be concentrated in marine life in the same manner as nonradioactive ones, the researchers found that: "Within the existing conditions of Lake Michigan, the organism studied will absorb only as much of an element, be it radioactive or stable, as their body chemistry require- and there is no evidence of further concentration of the element as it proceeds up the food Copeland said the study concluded "that no radioisotope would build up to a hazardous level" in the lake under the maximum discharge standards permitted by the Atomic Energy Commission. However, he stressed that the Michigan. Only one nuclear power plant. Big Rock near Charlevoix.

actually operated at the time samples were collected for the study. Now, six nuclear plants are operating or under construction around the lake. Chemical Elements In another aspect of the study, Copeland said his group made studies of the distribution of 35 chemical elements in Lake Michigan. The result, he said, is that Lake Michigan "looks pretty good as far as chemistry goes. We found no dangerous levels of chemicals." Copeland said even mercury levels are below the standards the Food and Drug Administration has set for fish.

The study did find "enough of an. increase to be significant but nothing approaching toxic levels" in concentrations of zinc and chromium where the Grand River flows into Lake Michigan, Copeland said. He blamed the concentrations upon plating plants upriver. Found in Plankton Copeland noted that selenium, an element as toxic as arsenic. was found concentrated in plankton off Chicago.

Concentrations six times those normal for other sections of the lake were found downwind from Chicago, he reported. However, even those levels did not approach the danger and coke. It is released during level. Selenium comes from burning fossil fuels I such as coal burning and then carried along by the prevailing winds. Copeland said the studies of chemical elements in Lake Michigan will provide a guide for future studies to indicate if chemical pollution is increasing.

Podgorny visited Hanoi and Henry A. Kissinger visited Peking last month. But these officials representing countries with missions in Moscow, Peking and Hanoi, reported today they have seen absolutely no evidence to suggest that the Russians or Chinese in fact are exercising any effective pressures on North Vietnam. In the one sector where Moscow and Peking could reinforce any advice, in favor of a settlethe supply of arms and other military aid -there has been no sign of a cutoff of aid.

Decline Comment And these Western authoritites said they doubt very much if the competing Russians and Chinese would expose themselves to charges of betraying Hanoi by seeming to turn on them so soon before the resumption of the Paris peace talks next week. a Spokesmen for the Soviet and Chinese embassies here declined formal comment on a re- port that their government have been pressing Hanoi to lend the war soon.

Riha, 41, of 1912 Jefferson St. was alone in a 1961 model convertible when it apparently swerved to avoid some object, slid off the left side of the road and overturned on top of him, killing him, according to the Vilas County Sheriff's Department in Eagle River. The department received a report of the fatal accident from Warren Merkel of St. Germaine, who came upon the accident scene and reported it at 12:35 a.m. Investigating officers said that Riha was apparently alone in the car.

He was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident on State Highway 70 about half a mile west of Vilas County Highway 0. The officers reported that the vehicle was traveling east on the state highway, and skid marks indicate that it swerved to avoid. striking some object. The of the car Riha was driving was reported damaged.

Gravel Will Seek Second Place on Ticket WASHINGTON (AP) Sen.

Mike Gravel announced today the Democratic vice presidential nomination at the national convention in Miami Beach next week. The Alaskan told reporters he would give delegates an opportunity to select the vice-presidential nominee in an open contest instead of "rubber-stamping" the presidential nominee's choice. The 42-year-old freshman senator's formal announcement at a news conference confirmed what he had been informally telling reporters and Democratic party officials around the country, that he was actively seeking the vice-presidential nomination.

Prognosticators say that temperatures are to peak in the low 70s in the Manitowoc Two Rivers area at least until Friday, but warn that residents should keep umbrellas and winter woolies readily available.

The extended outlook is calling for cooler readings with a chance of showers and thunderstorms Saturday and Sunday with highs in the 60s. Monday, they say, should be fair but continued cool. The mercury dropped into the 40s in most areas of the state early Thursday morning due to clear skies. One surprising exception was Manitowoc, which recorded an overnight low of 53. Two Rivers had a low of 46.

Other state lows ranged from 42 at Shell Lake, Manitowish Waters and Black River Falls to 52 at Milwaukee, Madison and Neenah. But cloudiness spread over the state during the day, setting the stage for some seasonable temperatures and anticipated thunderstorm activity. Highs Wednesday hovered between 70 at Milwaukee and 79 at Black River Falls. Manitowoc had a high of 69 while Two Rivers has a 65-degree reading. A re-run of the same was experienced Thursday.

Officials said shots fired by one of the hijackers killed a passenger and wounded two others after federal agents charged aboard an interstate Pacific Southwest Airline Boeing 737 taken over by, two hijackers for six hours Wednesday. "Certainly we're not pleased that three passengers were wounded." said Robert Gebhardt. FBI special agent in charge.

He made the comment before learning that one of the passengers had died. "But." he said i in response to a reporter's question, body had to make a decision."

The FBI said the gunman had an automatic in each hand but did not open fire. Three Shots In the rear of the plane, the other hijacker had another automatic and fired at least three shots, the FBI said. The second hijacker went down almost immediately from FBI gunfire, Gebhardt said, and like the other was dead on arrival at the hospital. The hijackers also held the plane's five crew members. It was the first time the FBI had charged aboard loaded passenger airliner to put an end to a hijacking.

It landed at San Francisco International Airport, then took off, circled the city and landed again. The gunmen killed Wednesday were identified from cards in their pockets as Dimitr Alexieff. 28. of Hayward, and Michael Azmanoff, 28, of San Francisco.

The organizers said it had been agreed in principle to hold the drawing tonight to determine which player would. have the white pieces and with them the first move. The young American, in a letter delivered by hand this morning to the world chess champion from the Soviet Union, apologized for his "disrespectful behavior." Fischer, whose delayed arrival doubled the prize money for both him and Spassky but started an avalanche of confusion, asked the Russian to "accept my. sincerest Petty Dispute "I simply became carried away by my petty dispute over money with the Icelandic chess organizers." he wrote. The written apology from the American challenger was one of the chief conditions posed by the Russians before Spassky would sit down at the chess board with Fischer.

Fischer told Spassky: have offended you and your country, the Soviet Union. where chess has a prestigious position." No Forfeit The temperamental American also apologized to Dr. Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation, the Icelanders, "the thousands of fans around the world and especially to the millions of fans and the many friends I have in the United States." However, Fischer brushed aside a demand from the Soviet Chess Federation that he forfeit the first match because of tardy arrival. He said this "would place me at a trmendous handicap" and he didn't champion believe desires the such "world's vantage 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." Fischer concluded. Earlier Euwe had met other demands the Russians made on him and suggested that the start of the matich be delayed further.

Gravel said that as vice president he would "add meaningful dialogue to the chief executive's deliberations rather than pay lip service and embarrassed obedience to unknown policies, as is the case today. "As VP I would seek to open new vistas of communication and information to the news media and the people," he said. "I would not abuse and intimidate those who seek honest information, as is the case today. "As vice president, I would act as an advocate for all the people, and especially minorities before a complex and insensitive bureaucracy."
