Connally, back home after a 17-nation mission for President Nixon, says he may campaign actively for the chief executive's re-election this fall but expects no offer to be Nixon's running mate. He also said he has no idea what new assignment Nixon may have in mind for him. although the President mentioned recently that Connally may take on some other special duties.

Connally told newsmen that he's made no decision on his campaign role, but said he doesn't consider Democratic Sen. George McGovern the most attractive presidential candidate and sides with Nixon on most major issues. "I think it would be a mistake to assume that I'll sit this one out," said Connally, who resigned in May as Treasury secretary amid speculation that Nixon might choose him to replace Spiro T. Agnew on the GOP ticket in November. "It's conceivable that I could be fairly active" for Nixon, he said, but he turned aside questions suggesting that the President sent him on the five-week worldwide trip to groom him for vice president.

"I would anticipate that I wouldn't" be offered the post, he said. "As I read the tea leaves, that's not in my future." Besides, he said, reporters should ask Nixon that question. Connally said he is still a Democrat But. asked if he missed attending the Democratic National Convention at Miami Beach, he said. "I miss it.

kind of like a man misses a sore thumb." As for McGovern, he said, "in light of some of his policies, he's not the most attractive candidate in the country, as far as I can see." Prosecution Plot WOODVILLE MERCHANTS WITH TROPHY Undefeated in Tourney Play 8 Fashions Three-l nder 69 Ohio State Senior Takes Amateur Lead Associated Press, international grandmaster Isaac Kashdan termed Fischer's move "a rare miscalculation by the American genius." He said it gave Spassky good prospects for a win. Svetozar Gligoric, the Yugoslav grandmaster present at the tournament, said, "It is doubtful whether black can save a draw." Spassky, who had the first move, is playing the white pieces, Fischer the black. Fischer has played Spassky five times in the past, losing all three times he played the black pieces and getting draws both times he played the whites and had the advantage of the first move. A draw counts half a point and a win a point in the 24-game championship match. To dethrone Spassky, Fischer needs 12V2 points while the Russian can retain his crown with 12 points.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Defending champion Boris Spassky was favored by the experts to beat American challenger Bobby Fischer in the opening game of the world chess match when play resumes this afternoon. The opener of the richest chess competition in history adjourned Tuesday night after 4 hours and 34 minutes of play and 40 moves by each player. The game was to resume at 5 p.m. 1 p.m.

EDT. Referee Lothar Schmid of West Germany will make Spassky's 41st move. The Russian wrote it on a slip of paper and handed it to him in a sealed envelope at the adjournment. The two competitors, their seconds and chess enthusiasts throughout the world spent part of the overnight break analyzing possibilities for the 11 pieces remaining on the green-and-white chessboard in Reykjavik's sports hall: king and five pawns for Fischer; king, bishop and three pawns for Spassky. The match had appeared headed for a draw until Fischer tried to seize the initiative on his 29th move.

The lanky Brooklyn, N.Y., challenger galloped his bishop down a long black diagonal to snatch an unprotected pawn Spassky had offered. A few moves later the bishop was trapped and lost in exchange for two pawns. U.S. grandmaster Robert Byrne said it was a blunder and commented, "Fischer -is going to have trouble making a draw. I don't see how Spassky can lose."

Mark Carlson, sports editor of The Fremont News-Messenger for nearly three years, has resigned that position in order to accept the post of sports information director at the University of Tampa in Tampa, Fla.

Carlson will begin his new duties at the Florida university, August 1. A graduate of Bellefonte Senior High School in Bellefonte, Carlson earned a Bachelor of Science Degree at St. Leo College in St. Leo, in 1969 and then accepted a position as city hall reporter at The News-Messenger. Carlson, who had served a summer intership at The News-Messenger in 1968, became sports editor of the paper in November of 1969.

During his years at St. Leo, he served as assistant sports information director and then as sports information director of the college. He has also been employed by the Centre Daily Times, State College, The Tampa Tribune, Tampa, and the St. Petersburg Times, St. Petersburg, Fla.

Carlson, who will turn 25 years old one day after taking over the Tampa position, helped build The News-Messenger's coverage of local and area high school athletics. During his term as sports editor, the annual football tabloid grew from 56 pages in its initial year of 1969 to 72 pages last year. At Tampa, he will be responsible for the dissemination of information concerning the university's athletic programs and its athletes and will play an important part in the development of the school's athletic image.

Pat Lindsey of Toledo established the amateur mark of 70 stroke in the 1970 Toledo Open. The overall course record of 68 belongs to pro Cliff Cook Sr. "I was really hitting my tee shots and putting," said Groves, "but I didn't realize it was a course record for an amateur." Groves, who packs 210 pounds on his 5 foot, 10 inch frame predicted the scores would be higher today for the second round when the tees will be set farther back and the pins placed in tougher spots. "It will probably take 157 or 158 to make the cut," said Nick Popa, executive secretary of the sponsoring Ohio Golf Association. Aside from Artz, the five former champions in the field had a battle on their hands to survive to the final two rounds Thursday and Friday.

The low 60 score and ties were to make the cut today. Sabotin was at 75, 1960 winner Dan Carmichael of Columbus at 76, defending champion Jack Hesler of Columbus at 79, and 1946 victor Ed Preisler of Cleveland at 81. TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) "That's the best golf I've ever seen Lalu Sabotin said. The five-time state public links champion marveled at the round of three-under-par 69 Steve Groves fashioned Tuesday for the opening Ohio Amateur lead. "He did it all, drove the ball big, hit the greens and putted like crazy," said Sabotin, the 1967 Ohio Amateur Champion from Warren, who followed Grove the 1st five holes at Belmont Country Club.

Groves, the long hitting Ohio State senior from Lancaster, admitted, "It's the best I've played since the Kepler Invitational." "That was one of two college tournaments the 21-year-old blond won this spring en route to All-America honors.

Prater, in brief testimony Tuesday, said he does not know Annette Gilly, the Woman who.

Under questioning by his attorney, H. David Rothman of Pittsburgh, Prater described how he was stopped by FBI agents while walking down a street in Lake City, with his family. He said he was taken to the FBI office, but was not told what charges were being brought against him. Both Rothman and Harold Gondelman of Pittsburgh, Pass's attorney, also challenged the method of selecting the Washington County grand jury. The grand jury is expected to be asked Monday by Dist.

Atty. Jess D. Costa to indict Pass and Prater on first-degree murder charges. Names of prospective jurors are submitted by a judge and the chairmen of both major political parties. This, the attorneys argued, does not provide for random selection of jurors.

Sweet is expected to rule on all issues brought before him before the grand jury convenes Monday.

After sitting out awhile, he tried an 1971 indoor comeback. First he developed bursitis in the right knee, then suffered a second hairline fracture, this one to his right ankle. "I was down," Wottle said, "and I didn't and still don't have any assurance I won't get hairline fractures again. They come from running too much." The slender middle distance star said he would just relax the next two weeks. Relaxing for Wottle is jogging some seven miles each day.

"I still think I have the best chance in the 1,500. It's hard convincing myself I'm the best in the 800, but maybe I am," he said. "When I was in high school, Ryun was my idol. He's always been the epitome of track and field," said Wottle. "At least now I can talk to him on equal ground.

He's beaten me and I've beaten him. He even came up to talk to me after the 1,500 in Eugene," he said. Wottle, only a 4:20 miler in high school, has staged a big comeback for the Olympics.

I phitheatre, which holds about 10,500 for basketball, if the league's Board of Governors reconsiders a $5.0 million offer to purchase the club by a nine-man group from Milwaukee and Chicago, headed by Marvin L. Fishman, a Milwaukee realtor. The Board rejected Tuesday the Fishman group offer to buy the Bulls from Elmer Rich.

NBA Commissioner Walter Kennedy indicated that the Governors did not approve the offer because the Bulls were unable to obtain a lease for the Stadium. Tuesday, Fishman said his group had signed a three-year lease with the Amphitheatre, but the Board still turned down the offer. "I'm disappointed by the temporary setback our group received," said Fishman. "I would like to emphasize the word temporary. We intend to pursue every legal action to assume our acquisition of the team." Should the efforts of the Fishman group fail, the Bulls could be sold to a group including Arthur Wirtz, owner of the Stadium.

It has been reported that with the rejection of Fishman, approval is expected to be given to the Wirtz group, which has a 10-year lease at favorable rental terms ready for the Bulls. Meanwhile, the Board approved the sale of the Celtics for $5.1 million to Robert Schmertz, a 46-year-old realtor from Lakewood, N.J. He will be sole owner of the club. The only other individual owner in the team's history was the late Walter Brown, who purchased the Celtics in their infancy in 1946. He died in 1964, but by that time was co-owner with Lou Pieri.

Schmertz, also part owner of the New England Whalers in the new World Hockey Association, is reported as saying he will keep the club in Boston, despite rumors to the contrary.

He requested permission for an emergency landing. The control tower operator thought it was a joke, and replied: "Put them in your gas tank." The operator was convinced, however, when he heard the unmistakable roar of a lion. The pilot had pushed the microphone toward one of the animals, which were being flown in a chartered cargo plane from Frankfurt to a London zoo. As the co-pilot held the lions at bay with a fire-ax, the pilot landed.

A woman zoologist, armed only with a broomstick and net, boarded the plane and coaxed the lions into crates.

First, the 21-year-old Bowling Green State University middle distance star will be married this weekend. Secondly, Wottle has decided he will run both the 800 and races for the United States in the summer Olympics at Munich in August. The pencil-thin blond who always runs with a battered white golf hat on, was uncertain he would try for an Olympic double after the trials at Eugene, Ore. last week. Wottle won the 800-meters in the world record equalling time of 1:44.3, beating the fabled Jim Ryun, who ran fourth.

Ryun then came back and won the metric mile while Wottle settled for second place. At first, the Canton native was uncertain he could compete in both events in the Olympiad. "I came back from the coast with my parents and fiance and they wanted me to try both," he explained. "There were a lot of people out there who wanted me to run in both too, so I will." Wottle said he wanted to use the 800-meters as insurance in case he missed qualifying in his favorite race, the 1,500.

MUIRFIELD, Scotland (AP) Jack Nicklaus went into one of the most vital golf tournaments of his illustrious career today with his mind fixed on winning the British Open title and consciously blocking out thoughts of achieving the Grand Slam. Britain's legal bookies have made the 32-year-old American an overwhelming favorite to win his third British crown, over Muirfield's windy links beside the Firth of Forth.

After seven practice rounds on the par 36-3571 layout, Nicklaus said: "My game is in reasonable shape. I have pretty much made up my mind what I will do when the chips are down." Thousands of golf fans besieged the course southeast of Edinburgh as play began for the 101st championship with prize money totaling about $120,000. The main focus was on Nicklaus, who needs the British title to complete the third leg of the Grand Slam sweeping the four major pro tourneys. He already has won the Masters and U.S. Open.
