The way things have been going with the party, one scenario has as much validity as the next. This is the one that I have written and if it comes true, remember, you read it here. It is the fourth day of the convention and the Democrats have been unable to decide on a presidential candidate. The fight to seat delegations has taken up three days and those people who were ruled ineligible have refused to give up their seats to those who were officially designated as delegates to the convention. Almost every state delegation has two people sitting in every chair.

No one dares leave the floor for fear that someone will grab his seat. When someone tries to speak he is hooted down by the opposition factcion. Larry O'Brien, the chairman of the party, has the podium ringed with the National Guard so no one can grab the microphone. The nomination speeches have not been heard, but the candidates have been nominated McGovern, Humphrey, Wallace, Chisholm, Jackson and Muskie. There have been no demonstrations for the candidates in the hall becaifse everyone is afraid if he gets up and marches they won't let him back in his section again, On the first ballot McGovern picked up 1,234 votes, well shy of the 1,509 he needed.

The rest were split between the other candidates with the uncommitted refusing to vote for anyone. The second and third ballot found no one budging. By the 10th ballot of Wednesday's all night session, the convention was hopelessly deadlocked. The state delegations caucused right on ihe floor, trying to get people to change their minds. But it was impossible.

On NBC, John Chancellor and David Brinkley became short-tempered and refused to talk to each other. Howard K. Smith and Harry Reasoner on ABC were also not speaking to each other, and on CBS, Walter Cronkite wasn't talking to himself. It was obvious to everyone in and out or tne convention hall that a compromise candidate had to be found-one who had not already been nominated. But who? The Democratic Party leaders call a recess behind the podium.

They argue and thrash it out for several hours. The only man whose name is proposed as the compromise candidate is a very famous, btft controversial, figure on the American scene. He has announced many times tha the is not a candidate for the Presidency or the Vice Presidency, and has said under no conditions would he accept a draft. Yet, the leaders argue he is the one person who can save the party. This young man, whose name had been associated with a very embarrassing incident, is a household word now.

Because of the deadlock at the convention, he is the only one who can possibly beat Nixon in November. The compromise candidate is not at the comention. He has purposely stayed away so people would believe he was not interested in the nomination. O'Brien puts in a call to him. Everyone, in turn, gets on the phone and tells him he has to be the candidate.

The compromise candidate speaks to George Humphrey, Muskie and Wallace. They urge him to run. The candidate finally agrees to, a draft and says he will take the next plane to Miami. And that's how Bobby Fischer, the U.S. chess cham-' pion, became the.

A continental divide may be called a watershed.

It is a subtle geographical feature that drains the runoff from precipitation and launches young streams in opposite directions. North America's major watershed is called the Great Divide, perhaps because it is long enough to extend from the northern Rockies down through Central It works with no ecort at all, simply because water is obligated to flow down even the gentlest slope. North America, like most continents, has an enormous central region of flat plains, with mountainous ridges on both sides, sloping down to major coastlines facing the oceans. A map based on altitudes shows its outstanding ups and downs in greens and browns and we can expect the main rivers to drain downhill from the slopes to the plains. So they do.

But as a rule, the map reveals these geographical features only in a general way. It fails to note that the entire land mass has long, though very gentle humps that end to tilt portions of the continent in various directions. These ridges are the continental divides that separate the streams and cause them to flow in opposite directions. these humps are on high ground. But as a rule, their summits and slopes are very subtle and hard to survey.

They are watershed regions where rains and melting snows feed streams. Andy tend till te Christine Clark. 10. of New Hartford, for her question: HOW DO SNAILS GET IN AND OUT OF THEIR SHELLS? When you find an empty snail shell, you can be sure that the rightful owner has departed forever. For a snail must remain attached to his shell throughout his whole life.

In fact, it begins to form even before he hatches from his egg. With a hand lens or a magnifying glass, you can see the tiny flake that will become the future shell he will carry on his back. It is, of course, his personal house and as he grows it grows with him. His cousins, the slugs, do not have shells. They must hide in moist, shady places to protect their clammy skins from the drying air.

A snail can travel around and see more of the world because he takes his private hide-. sway with him wherever he goes. When warm or cool weather becomes too dry for comfort, he snuggles himself inside his shell. If he plans to hibernate or estivate for a while, he seals the opening with layers of slimy goo. This material soon dries and closes his exit with a papery door.
