Earlier this summer, the railroad had received Interstate Commerce Commission approval to abandon the line which runs from Montezuma to Hills at the close of business Friday. But the ruling by Judge William C. Hanson will prevent the company from doing so for one week.

Judge Hanson set a hearing on a request for a temporary injunction against the abandonment for 9:30 a.m. July 21 in tne U.S. District court room Des Moines. The restraining order was sought by attorneys representing the Iowa Railroad Shippers Association, which hopes to force Rock Island to maintain the rail service until the Iowa Commerce Commission acts nn the application by the businessmen to purchase the line. The shippers contend that the Interstate Commerce Commission ruling permitting abandonment, of the line was "arbi trary, capricious and not in the best interests of the public well as being "contrary to the I asiof IS REJECTED BY CONNALLY Will Support Nixon For Re-Election By Carroll Kilpatriek Si 197? Washington Post SAN CLEMENTE.

CALIF. -Former Secretary of the Treasury John B. Connally said Friday that Democratic presiden-t i a 1 nominee George S. McGovern's position on Vietnam "sabotages" the efforts of the Nixon administration "to bring this war to an end on a negotiated basis." The former Democratic governor of Texas, who helped carry his state for the Democrats in the last three presidential elections, sharply assailed McGovern on a wide variety of issues and said that he would do everything in his power to help re-elect President Nixon. 'Too Isolationist" After a three-hour meeting with the President, Connally told reporters that McGovern is "all too isolationist and also too radical in character" for him to support.

He said he would work with "like-minded Democrats" to win support for the President. McGovern's proposal to drastically cut the defense budget would mean "a retreat from world responsibility" and "a retreat from world leadership," Connally said. "I will not support" the McGovern-Eagleton ticket, the Texan said. But he asserted that he is still a Democrat, and does not expect to be Mr. Nixon's running mate this year.

Connally spoke to newsmen on the lawn of the President's home here following a three-hour meeting he held with the President and with national security adviser Henry A. Kissinger. Connally said one of the rea- sons he resigned from the 1 1.. ii i .1 uu, iTPSineni re-election.

Traditionally, in both parties, the vice-chairman has been a woman. Salinger Withdraws While McGovern said he regretted O'Brien's departure, party sources said the chairman agreed at one point to reconsider and possibly stay on.

The State Board of Regents Friday adopted a 1973-75 budget calling for a 23 per cent increase in biennial state appropriations for the five regent institutions. The regent institutions are the University of Iowa at Iowa City, Iowa State University at Ames, the University of Northern Iowa at Cedar Falls, the Iowa Braille and Sight Saving School at Vinton and the Iowa School for the Deaf at Council Bluffs. Under the budget adopted Friday, the Regents will ask the 1973 Iowa Legislature for $249 million in state funds to help finance a operating budget for (he five schools in 1973-75. The proposed $249-milIion allocation is about $44 million, or about 21 per cent, mora than the regents received in oner- ating funds from the Lcgisla hire for the 1971-73 biennium. Capital Funds The regents also will ask next year's Legislature for an additional $5.3 million in state appropriations and $20.2 million in new bonding authority to finance a capital fund budget for the five institutions in 1973-75.

The regents' capital funds are used to finance construction, remodeling and renovation of campus buildings. The regent institutions have operated in the current biennium on a $23-million capital fund $1 million in state appropriations and $22 million in bonding authority. The regents laboriously hammered out the operating and capital budgets adopted Friday in two days of discussions, concluding a year's preparation of 1973-75 budget askings by a committee of administrators from the five schools. The final budget figures were considerably lower than those proposed by the original budget million in state appro- pnations to help tinance a proposed operating budget of $413 million. Askings Slashed In slashing the institutional budget askings, the regents sympathized with the in-S stitutions but emphasized that the Legislature will be hard-; pressed to provide even the reduced requests finally agreed upon unanimously by the board.

UNI President Dr. John J. Kamerick noted that although the adopted state appropriation request, amounts to a 23 per cent increase amounts to annual increases over the two-year period of only 7 to 8 per cent. "So we're talking about very modest Increases, really," said Kamerick. "The only thing wrong with this budget is it's just too much money," said Regent Ralph Wallace of Mason City.

For the park bench players, Fischer is either, "sumashedsy" crazy or scared.

"These animals are dangerous especially the male," said the Yerkes spokesman.

"One of them has the strength of about three men. If disturbed, they're capable of killing a man." The experiment could last as long as three years depending on how the chimps get along. If it's successful, Yerkes hopes to put orangutans on the jlOO-acre island. Orangutans are larger than chimpanzees and live in trees. Chimpanzees, like other great apes, are threatened with extinction in their native habitats.

"He's slightly touched in the head," muttered a chess enthusiast as his opponent pondered the next move on a board balanced across a bench. About six-million Russians take chess seriously and there's a growing feeling among then that Fischer has become downright insulting.

"This Is chess, not base-hall," said one chess fan. "Fischer's no sportsman." There was only praise for Boris Spassky, the Russian world champion who has waited patiently in Reykjavik as Fischer caused delay after delay over his demands for more money, for better lighting and. at last report, for the removal of film cameras from the match site. It was Fischer's self-confidence, his individuality and his public claim to being the world's best chess player that captured the Russians' imagination.
