Area Demos Challenge TIMES-DEMOCRAT Thursday, June 2J, 1972 Davenport Betlendorf, Iowa Delegate Hearing Set llinois School Aid fit' Package Passes "It's up to the committee to look at the hearing officer's report and decide whether or not the delegates should be seated," Braud said. The hearing officer, Ronald Davenport, also ruled in favor of challengers to 12 Muskie delegates and 7 uncommitted delegates from Illinois' 17th, 22nd, and 23rd districts. The action of the credentials committee is important to McGovern since he picked up oniy 16 delegates in the primary election. Ninety-two uncommitted and 62 Muskie delegates were elected. Since many of the challenges were brought by McGovern supporters, the South Dakota senator could pick up added strength in his quest for the Democratic presidential from the 19th District who challenged the seating of the Muskie delegates are Mrs.

Barbara Shah, Moline; Ann Gorr, Rock Island; Marceleen Hauck, Moline; Walter Braud, Rock Island; and Richard Kee-ley, East Moline. The uncommitted challenger is Scott Buckles, Rock Island. The challengers contended that the party organizations in the 19th District had both openly an! privately supported the five Muskie delegates, in direct violation of party guidelines. BRAUD, an attorney who also represented the challengers in the June 8 hearing in Springfield, 111., said he intended to present no new information at the hearings before the committee in Washington. SPRINGFIELD, III.

(AP) -The Illinois Senate adopted Wednesday an $802-million proposal for state aid to common schools to back up' a bipartisan agreement that left some discontent. The 40-0 vote on the appropriation came on the heels of Senate passage 41-0 of a key bill in the agreement that raised the state aid proposal of Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie about $11 million. ALTHOUGH votes were unanimous, without debate, Sen.

John Knuppel, D-Peters-burg, explained he voted yes reluctantly because the money fell short of a meeting a constitutional mandate. Both bills move to the House, where concurrence in amendments is necessary to bring the pact to completion. Just before the Senate action, State School Supt. Michael J. Bakalis said in a news conference the amount of money under the agreed formula is "totally inadequate as to the needs of the schools of Illinois." Bakalis criticized Ogilvie because he made education a top priority in his "State of the State" address in January, but did not provide the funds Bakalis believed adequate.

"THIS ought to become an issue of the campaign for governor," Bakalis said. "Education deserves to be in the middle of the political arena." I Bobby's Foe Sen. Robert McCarthy, D-Decatur, sponsor of the key bill in the Senate, described it as a particular benefit for schools suffering declining enrollment. Technically, he described the bill as permitting school districts to figure their state aid shares on either the average daily attendance for the years 1970-71 or 1971-72, whichever is larger. The bill, McCarthy said, is estimated to provide about $9.4 million total, with about $2.3 million of this going to Chicago schools and $7.1 million for suburban Cook County and downstate schools.

BOTH Republican and Democratic spokesmen in the Senate supported the bill. The agreement was reached late Tuesday when it was first announced on the Senate floor. Bakalis, who had long proposed a $911-million state aid figure, supported a compromise that would have raised the Ogilvie proposal to $828 million. It lost Tuesday, and Bakalis said in a Wednesday news conference, "it seems political concerns took precedence over the educational needs of Illinois' two million elementary and secondary school children." In another element, an increase in the density factor of the school aid formula, applying especially to Chicago schools that have heavy pupil populations per district square mile, would boost aid an estimated $1.8 million. Another $3.5 million support to the state aid money would come from striking an urban education program from the budget of Bakalis' office.

Ex-POW: I Had 'Peking Man' ItS Hct Convention City Tightens Laws By Dennis Hathaway The Democratic party's Credentials Committee is scheduled to hear a challenge in Washington, D.C., Friday morning to five delegates to the national convention from Illinois' 19th Congressional District. A hearing officer ruled earlier this month that party rules were violated because the five delegates, all committed to Sen. Edmund Muskie of Maine, were slated by the local Democratic organization. THE FIVE delegates, each elected in the March 21 primary, are Rock Island County Clerk William Foley Rock Island lawyer Stewart Winstein; Mrs. Jeanne Wycoff, Aledo; Andrew Gianulis, Rock Island, and Cecil Quails, Moline.

The sixth delegate elected in the primary, Earl Burklund, Moline, was not challenged. The challenges were brought by six unsuccessful candidates for the delegate seats. Five are committed to Sen. George McGovern of South Dakota and the sixth is uncommitted. The credentials committee is scheduled to spend all day Friday hearing challenges to a total of 78 delegates from Illinois.

Most of that time is expected to be taken in hearing arguments against the seating of 59 uncommitted delegates from Chicago. THE CREDENTIALS committee is expected to decide whether to seat either the elected delegates or their challengers sometime before the July 13 convention in Miami Beach, Fla.

OTHERS WHO have contacted Janus since he announced his reward offer a week ago disagree with Davis, some saying they have parts of the Peking Man and revealing their claims in devious, cloak-and-dagger meetings at such spots as the Empire State Building observation deck and in dark corners in the plush Harvard Club. The assortment of bones, unearthed in China between 1927 and 1ST29, has not been swn publicly since Davis' capture. Davis suggested a search of the area around Camp Holcomb. "The Japanese were hungry for any kind of souvenir Mickey Mouse watch or whatever.

But when they came across the bones, they probably threw them out, thinking they were bones of our American ancestors. They wouldn't mean anything to them," said Davis, who now lives in Colonia, N.J., with his wile and three children.

He said he was captured on Pearl Harbor Day and he thinks his captors "probably threw the bones away." They may still be in the area of what was Camp Holcomb, near the coastal city of Chin-wangtao in Hopeh Province, said Herman Davis. Davis, 55, is a former Marine Corps pharmacist mate.
