THE TAMPA TRIBUNE, Friday, July 14, 1972 I-A Fischer Forfeits Chess Game MeGo vern Taps Missouri Senator As Ticket Mate LEATHER SANDALS fa Flat and Heel from Italy for these Terrik Buys cameras. Shortly after play began Wednesday, he walked out for 30 minutes, complaining that one of the cameras made him nervous. During the walkout Schmid told Fischer nothing could be done about the camera. Film and television rights for the match were sold to Fox. Fischer and Spassky were to get a share of the proceeds, estimated at $27,500 each.

Stein said he had been up all night with Fischer's second, the William Lom-bardy, and Cramer, trying to settle the question. The cameras had been officially sanctioned. Under Rule 21, the taking of pictures during the match by official photographers is allowed as long as cameras are "neither visible nor audible."

Ribicoff said he asked not to be considered. Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who declined the vice presidential spot, flew to Miami last night at McGovern's request to speak on! the convention floor. Mankiewicz said without elaboration that a woman and several blacks were under consideration at one point.

Eagleton finally was chosen partly because of bis exceptional abilities, demonstrated as a freshman senator and as former attorney general and lieutenant governor of Missouri, said McGovern adviser Gordon Weil Also, Weil added, "of the people we had under consideration he was a well qualified, if not better qualified, to succeed to the presidency." REP. WILLIAM CLAY, a fellow Missouri Democrat and a black, said McGovern had seriously considered White and Landrieu, but rejected them when his advisers complained they were far too little known. Eagleton, chairman of the Senate District of Columbia Committee and active in subcommittee work on air and water pollution, is a native of St. Louis and a Harvard Law School graduate. He is a staunch, down-the-line liberal in the McGovern mold, but is virtually unknown to the public outside Missouri.

In finally selecting Eagleton after a long day of deliberation at his Doral Hotel suite, McGovern rejected the urg-ings of Southern governors and others that he turn to a political moderate such as Polio Case Confirmed In Fort Myers From Page 1 tor of the State Division of Health, said the vaccine would be made available to all residents of Lee County. ''THE BOY has definitely suffered a polio infection," said Sowder, "But we do not know where it came from." He said it was believed to be the only known case of polio in the United States at the time. Sowder said health inspectors were attempting to track down a number of families who live in the same area as the boy but "have moved away recently or are out of the county." He said it was the first reported -case of polio in Florida since 1969 and the first case in Lee County since 1962. THE POLIO vaccine will be given to all unimmunized persons between the ages of two months and 40 years by the Lee County Health Department, he said. Sowder said polio is a threat to any unimmunized persons and that it could "again sweep through our neighborhoods.

The possibility of an epidemic can only be eliminated through immunization." WW 1HI l)T KM From Page 1 Fox, the promoter who owns the three cameras, said they were out of Fischer's sight and hearing. "He said just knowing they were there bothered him," Fox said, adding later: "I pity the poor guy." All attempts to get Fischer to the chess table where he lost the first game to Spassky on Wednesday proved futile. The tempermental American chess whizz even turned down an appeal based on his responsibilities as a "folk hero of the Americans." The future of the match, said chief referee Lothar Schmid, now depends on whether Fischer persists in his walkout. Schmid said the International Chess Federation could intervene and disqualify the American challenger, allowing Russia to keep the world title it has held for 24 years. But at the end of the said there would be a game on Sunday as scheduled.

SPASSKY ENTERED the hall on time and took his place at the table. At game time Schmid started Fischer's clock as the rules required. Spassky looked perplexed. At the end of an hour, Schmid announced to an angry crowd: "Ladies and utself. save ionjo gentlemen, Mr.

Fischer did not appear in the playing hall. According to Rule No. 5, if a player is more than one hour late he loses the game by forfeit." During the hour there were telephone calls back and forth between the Sports Palace and Fischer's hotel. Spassky, who left the stage at times, emerged from behind the curtains after i announcement, bowed to the crowd and left. RICHARD STEIN lawyer for American promoter Chester Fox, said, "We did everything we could" to appease Fischer.

Fox, who bought exclusive film rights for the match, reported that Fischer admitted he could not see or hear the cameras but "said they bothered him because he knew they were there." Stein emphasized that Fox could not with Fischer's demand because "the whole financial structure of the match depends on it." Fred Cramer, an official of the U.S. Chess Federation, made a phone call to Gud-mundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic Chess Federation, informing him of Fischer's decision to boycott. IT WAS NOT Fischer's first complaint against the movie 2 I Ml MOAN HOTEL PfttStOENTEHO puEnTOBC0. cuco lthPfiie-w Y0.jMStfVn,7 0ynd6. Rep.

Mills to lend balance to the Democratic ticket. The South Dakota senator had let it be known repeatedly that he would not let geographical considerations affect his choice, which would have to be a running mate in the same "ideological ballpark." Eagleton fit that term easily. Mankiewicz described Eagleton as "a leader in the Senate and a consistent foe of Pentagon overspending." Eagleton got the news in a telephone call from McGovern at 3:40 p.m. at the Mis-sourian's sixth-floor suite at the Ivanhoe Hotel. Sen.

Edmund S. Muskie, once the front runner for the presidential nomination, called Eagleton "a fine choice one of the bright young leaders' of our party (with) good political instincts." But Muskie said Eagleton's biggest job at the outset was "to make himself known, as I did in 1968" when the Maine senator was Hubert H. Humphrey's running mate. WITH THAT decided, McGovern headed for convention hall, where he won a smashing first ballot victory Wednesday night, to deliver an acceptance speech outlining his battle plan for denying Nixon re-election in November with or without the remnants of the party's shattered old guard. McGovern is entering the campaign saddled with a reduced $6 million debt left over from the Democrats' losing election fight of 1968, and lacking the powerful support and financial commitments of the AFL-CIO leadership.

Demolished in McGovern's "new politics" triumph in Miami Beach was the 'coalition of the big city machine bosses, organized labor the deep South political powers which Franklin D. Roosevelt fashioned and which served the party from the New Deal to the Great Society. Both Eagleton and Mills figured prominently in late speculation before the final announcement, along with Leonard Woodcock, president of the United Auto Workers; Gov. Patrick J. Lucey of Wisconsin and Sen.

Abraham Ribicoff of Connecticut, who said he rejected McGovern's bid. Throughout the day, McGovern cloistered himself in his penthouse suite at Doral while in an anteroom, nearly two dozen advisers including actress Shirley MacLaine pored over lists of vice presidential possibilities. AS A SIGN of the widespread hostility to McGovern in the party, the convention gave him a smashing 1,864.95 votes for the nomination Wednesday night 356 more than the required majority but balked at observing the near-tradition of making his victory unanimous as a display of unity. Although McGoverr picked up scattered votes when 17 states changed their ballots after the first roll call, Washington State refused to leave its diehard anti-McGovern candidate, Sen. Henry M.

Jackson. Alabama, Florida and North Carolina refused to budge from their commitment to George C. Wallace. 17 iiis SMI 10CSTKW COVERING TWEED OPERATOR ON DUTY CALL NOW COUNT ON us OI QUALITY Sli 4uhdl.st charge 139.99 9 1 1 charge it ii 1 1 it it .1 1. 4 WW Mhui.
