McGovern a hard campaigner, and an early opponent of the war. The 42-year-old junior senator from Missouri is regarded as generally, more moderate than McGovern. But when someone asked him if his place on the ticket makes it more of the moderate-liberal side, he said simply, "labels are difficult." A stocky man with salt-and-pepper hair, Eagleton prides himself on never having lost an election. Associates call him a good debater, a skilled politician, and a campaigner with stamina. HE BECAME Missouri's junior senator in 1968, defeating a popular incumbent, Richard V.

Long. He ran on an antiwar platform, espousing views much like those held by McGovern. A Roman Catholic, Eagleton is expected to attract a good following in Eastern population centers, but his selection added no particular regional strength to the ticket. Earlier in the convention, Eagleton could be seen at his hotel, wandering around the swimming pool in loud red and yellow trunks that revealed a stomach turning to paunch. Some of the Missouri delegates at a nearby table joked about his heft.

Thomas Eagleton, 42, an antiwar Roman Catholic from Missouri, as his running mate yesterday to lead a clear-cut liberal challenge against President Nixon this fall.

"I'm so surprised my brain is numb," said Eagleton as he rushed to McGovern's hotel suite after getting the news personally from the Democratic presidential nominee by telephone. The public announcement was made by Frank Mankie-wicz, the South Dakota senator's campaign coordinator, less than three hours before the final session of the Democratic National Convention met to ratify McGovern's choice for vice president and hear McGovern's acceptance speech. Mankiewicz said Eagleton was one of seven final candidates submitted to McGovern after prolonged study and consultations that began in earnest shortly after McGovern won the top spot on the 1972 ticket early yesterday.

He stayed in his hotel room, sulking because of movie cameras in the playing hall. His balk for the second in a 24-game schedule left the score 2 to 0 in the Russian's favor.

This gave Spassky a powerful psychological advantage over Fischer, who has never beaten the champion. Jivo Nel, one of Spassky's assistants, said Fischer's failure to appear was "a grave insult not only to the Soviet people but the whole world." "The world champion," he added, "cannot dance to Fischer's tune." yesterday the dangerous low-pressure situation that has affected thousands of residents has improved "somewhat."

Myers MIAMI BEACH MP) Some of the Florida National Guardsmen on duty for the Democratic National Convention became tourists yesterday as a way of passing the time on their hands. Bus tours were offered to any who wished to go.

They had to don civilian clothes so they would be inconspicuous, in keeping with the low-profile nature of the guard operation, a spokesman said. "WE ARE not here as a show of force," he said, "but to be on hand in case of trouble." There has been none that needed their attention, so nearly all of the 3,000 guardsmen on duty have been confined to four high schools and one junior high school where they have slept in classrooms and eaten in the cafeterias. In some cases, they have had to stay behind fences. "It's like jail," said one young guardsman. Four of the five battalions already have taken their two weeks annual training tour at Army posts so their schedules here call for four hours of classes in the morning and recreation in the afternoon including baseball, basketball and volleyball competition between units.
