She was outspoken on topics from the Vietnam war to the Repub-1 i a to the Democrats to her husband.

Mrs. Mitchell She said the unthinkable in a town where discretion and protocol act as effective gags for most people. "The Vietnam war is was one of her shockers. As the wife of one Cabinet member, she said of another: "We're thinking of running (Treasury Secretary) John B. Connally for Pope." "Right on, Martha! Give 'em hell," President Nixon ased to say when the wife of his attorney general, John N.

Mitchell, teed off on the Democrats. Now, three years after her spectacular rise to becoming the most sought after woman in Washington, she and her husband are preparing for an eventual move back to New York and away from the limelight. Mitchell, who resigned as attorney general to manage President Nixon's re-election campaign, has quit the latter post at his wife's insistence. He will remain as an adviser but it seems certain he and his wife will not command the same attention in Washington that was sometimes aghast and "often amused by Mrs. Mitchell's frankness.

Mrs. Mitchell, 53, burst into prominence early in 1969, when she told an interviewer that anti-Vietnam war demonstrators looked like Russian revolutionaries." She made a 2 a.m. phone call to the Arkansas Gazette to blast Sen. J. William Fulbright, a leading critic of the war.

Martha had the nerve to say what she thought and called the shots as she saw them, sometimes outrageously. President Nixon was amused. He felt she added a touch of liveliness, even glamour to the staid stamp of his San ffincisca XS. vv l0.5r- A administration. She fell into a class with Henry A.

Kissinger as a Nixon-style celebrity. Mail showered into her letter-box and she developed a countrywide following. Some of her detractors starting calling her '-Moutha." The wives of other Cabinet members, who were under strong restraint, neither understood nor liked Martha's power. Mrs. Nixon and her daughters, Julie Eisenhower and Tricia Cox, defended her right to speak, but did not approve of some of her fiery opinions.

Although their husbands were close, Mrs. Nixon and Mrs. Mitchell maintained a cool and detached relationship, although they spent many social hours together.

Supreme Court has issued a decision that will force Indiana to revise its method of revoking parole, a spokesman for the Legal Services Organization said today. Craig Pinkus, an LSO attorney, said the court decided the issue Thursday but it went unnoticed because of the court's decision on the death penalty. LSO officials, who had filed a "friend of the court" brief with the Iowa case that was appealed to the court, received the Supreme Court's written decision today. Pinkus called the decision "a victory" and said it will "end the revoking of parole because of personal grudges or anger on the part of parole officers." The court's unanimous decision in the case of Morrissey et. al.

vs. Brewer said parole cannot be revoked until due process is given the parolee in two hearings. Norman Owens, acting commissioner of the Indiana Department of Correction, said parole now can be revoked when a parole officer sends evidence to the State Parole Board that an inmate has violated the conditions of parole.

Officials hoped the twice-postponed tournament could get under way yesterday, but earlier representatives of both Fischer and Spassky broke off talks, casting doubts on the possibility the match would be held.

Chief Justice Warren Burger, who wrote the decision, said an inmate whose parole may be revoked must be notified in writing of a hearing about the issue and must be told of the alleged grounds for which his parole will be revoked. The first hearing can be informal, Justice Burger said, but the state must indicate the type of evidence that will be provided.

An independent officer will conduct the hearing and must decide if there is probable cause for a second hearing, at which the parole can be revoked formally. At the second hearing, Pinkus said, the court decided the parolee can speak in his own behalf, bring witnesses and present evidence. He also can cross-examine persons who are testifying against him. The court did not rule whether the parolee was entitled to counsel at the hearings. Albert Tutsie, head of the Indiana Parole Board, was at parole hearings at the Indiana State Prison and was unavailable for comment.

From the upper level of the airport terminal, newsmen could see Smith holding the girl in his arms. At times he and the girl could be seen sitting in a front seat. Now and then he would carry the girl to the rear and then return to the front.

Outside, on the ground, FBI agents talked to him using a bull horn. Reporters were kept away and could not hear whether he made any reply. Earlier, he had shouted that he did not want to see newsmen, cameras or tape recorders.

(AP) A man holding a young girl hostage emerged from an American Airlines 707 at Buffalo International Airport' early today, accompanied by an FBI agent, and was whisked away in a police car. A witness said the man still held the youngster in his arms as he walked down the ramp of the aircraft. Police said he had threatened to kill the girl with a knife after he slipped aboard the unoccupied plane several hours earlier and demanded the airline provide a pilot for the craft. "I want a pilot. I want a ---pilot," the man shouted to police and FBI agents surrounding the plane parked at a terminal gate.

Police identified the man as Charles Smith, 23, of Buffalo. The girl, probably 2 or 3 years old, was not identified.

The brief orders of the Appeals Court carried no reasons for the action.

The judges were expected to file opinions later. District Court Monday ruled that the Federal judiciary had no place in the debate over delegates from the two states. The Credentials Committee had issued decisions that stripped Sen. George S. McGovern of 151 California delegates and told Mayor Richard J.

Daley and 58 other uncommitted Chicago delegates to stay home. The California case, heading for a showdown Monday night at the Democratic National Convention, is the most crucial because the 151 delegates taken from McGovern by the committee decision to require proportional representative of the 271 delegates may leave him short of a first-ballet nomination. Including the decisions reached by the Credentials Committee, the latest Associated Press count gives McGovern 1,281.9 first-ballot short of the 1,509 needed for the nomination. No Snow, Though Cool nights, which saw a record low of 49 set today, will remain around through Saturday even though the days will be warm. The National Weather Service said the 5:50 a.m.

reading of 49 today broke the record low of 52 sot on July 5, 1890, and tied in 1915 and 1963. A weather service spokesman said the cool temperatures should not injure any crops unless frost should develop, which is not expected. The cool weather at night will cause some slowing down in the speed of crop growth, however. Tonight's forecast is for partly cloudy skies and cool temperatures with mostly sunny and a little warmer weather expected tomorrow. Tonight's low is to be 49, with a high tomorrow of 76.

The extended outlook calls for a chance of showers Sunday with little change during the rest ot the period. Restoration of the 151 California votes could leave him less than 100 away. Far behind the South Dakota senator are Humphrey with 498.55; Alabama George C. Wallace, 381, and Sen Edmund S. Muskie of Maine, 225.55.

A total of 454.4 is uncommitted. Aids to Sens. Hubert H. Humphrey and George McGovern are sparring verbally in a warmup for next week's convention. Jack Chestnut, Humphrey's campaign manager, demanded that McGovern fire or repudiate Rick Stearns, one of his campaign aids, who said he favored a third party to "punish" Humphrey should the Minnesota senator win the Democratic presidential nomination.

"Talk of punishment of the Democratic party is irresponsible and can't be tolerated," Chestnut said. Stearns' comments seemed to be part of an effort by some McGovern aids to convince partly leaders that denial of the nomination to the front-running South Dakota senator would split the party. Both Humphrey and McGovern were In WASHINGTON An Associated Press survey of about two dozen cities shows that grocery bills particularly for the better cuts of beef and for pork have increased anywhere from a dime a pound on up in the two weeks since the latest warning of higher meat prices was issued. Cabinet officials met today with officials of food chains and called in farmers for a session tomorrow to help in preparing a food prices report that PRESIDENT NIXON has requested by Monday. WASHINGTON The holy state of matrimony is in deep trouble in America, and statistics suggest it won't be long before more than half the partnerships that begin at the altar end up on the rocks.

A report from the National Center for Health Statistics, a bureau of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, shows there were 528,177 marriages and 240,409 divorces from Jan. 1 to April 30, 1972. Compared to the same period of 1971, marriages increased by 16,684, but divorces increased by 21,344. resting Humphrey at his Waverly, lakeside home, McGovern at his Eastern shore Maryland farm while their supporters spent the Fourth of July arguing the California and Illinois credentials cases before the court. In the Miami Beach Convention Center, meanwhile, the City Council planned to reconsider whether it will reverse a decision against granting campsites for the young nondelegates expected for next week's convention.

At a news conference yesterday, Convention Manager Richard Murphy said the hall would be "buttoned up" from midnight Sunday until late Monday afternoon for a bomb search recommended by the Secret Service. He said afternoon sessions may be necessary next Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon to handle minority reports on the party's platform before the nomination proceedings begin. "It is even possible we might have to come back Wednesday afternoon before we can get to the business of nomi- nathg a candidate that night," he said. i WASHINGTON Mass layoffs in the aerospace and electronics industries in 19(59-70 had a severe impact on enrollment in engineering schools this past year, and it could add up to a shortage of engineers in 1975. A survey by the Engineers Joint Council shows there were 26,000 fewer engineering students in 1971 than a year earlier.

Dr. CHAUNCY STARR, dean of the UCLA School of Engineering and Applied Science, predicted that by the mid-1970s, engineers will be as scarce and as courted by employers as they were in the heydays of the 19(i0s.
