Now he faces Westmoreland ikwnty juvenile authority action or telephoning a bomb hoax to us principal, Donald Gibboney. According to police investiga- jors, the youth didn't want to to school Tuesday, and got he idea to call in the bomb scare thinking it might result closing school for the day. He went to a pay telephone booth in downtown Mount Pleasant and called the school office at the time he knew the principal would arrive. He asked aibboney if he recognized his voice and the principal replied in the negative. Then the youth told him that a bomb had been placed in the school and would go off that morning.

But, the school wasn't closed, and the bomb hoax caller went to school as usual--almost as usual, that is, and that is how tie was caught. The boy not only knew what time Gibboney would arrive, but he himself was also known to arrive at school by a certain time for classes. Tuesday, he was somewhat late, arousing suspicion. Finally, after some questioning by stale police, the youth admitted the call. Troopers turned him over to the custody of the school am his parents and proceeded to file a complaint with the county juvenile authorities.

This Johnson in the nation's first 1968 presidential primary in New Hampshire.

On Che Republican side, former vice president Richard M. Nixon strengthened his position as the man to beat for the GOP presidential nomination. He polled about 80 per cent of the vote against a relatively feeble write-in for Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York, who got about 11 per cent of the Republican vote.

The man who could glory in defeat was McCarthy of Minnesota, who came from nowhere to deliver a bold challenge of the Johnson administration's conduct of the Vietnam War. With most of the Democratic vote counted, the President led McCarthy by a margin of less than 5 to 4. The slower count of the vote for candidates for the state's delegation for the Democratic National Convention left the outcome of those races in doubt. McCarthy could win most of them because he had only 24 candidates for the 24 delegate seats. The vote for pro-Johnson delegates was spread among 44 candidates.

Both parties voted directly on candidates for president and for delegates to the national con- vestions to be held in August. VP Voting The count of write-in votes for the Democratic vice presidential nomination showed Vice President Hubert H. Humphry polling slightly less than half of the total. Sen. Robert F.

Kennedy of New York received about per cent and 37 per cent of the votes were scattered among other Democrats. Johnson's defenders could note that the president was a write-in candidate and that McCarthy had unusual organization help from a dedicated army of young people who came from college campuses inside and outside the state. But McCarthy partisans could reply that competing with an incumbent president was a formidable job under any circumstances and that Johnson was backed by the state Democratic organization beaded by Gov. John W. King and Sen.

Thomas J. Mclntyre. Coming just after the virtual forfeit by Johnson forces of 72 convention votes in Massa chusetts to McCarthy, the New Hampshire results gave him needed momentum. On the Democratic preferential ballot including write-ins, returns from 300 or 99 per cenl of the state's 302 precincts gave: Johnson 25,950 votes or 49 per cent of the votes, McCarthy 22,214 or 42 per cent, Robert P. Kennedy 744 or 1 per cent, and third party candidate George Wallace 223 or zero per cent.

On the Republican preferential ballot including write-ins returns from 297 or 96 per cent of the state's 302 precincts gave: Nixon votes or 79 per cent of the vote, Rockefeller 11,505 or 11 per cent, George Romney 1,727 or 2 per cent, Ronald Reagan 393 or tero per cent, Charles Percy 102 or zero per cent, Harold iitimn 397 or zero per cent, and Wallace 290 or tero per cent. Nixon swept all the Republican National Convention delegates, while McCarthy won most of the Democratic dele- gaets. Democratic returns from 274 or 91 per cent of the 302 precincts showed McCarthy capturing 20 pledged delegates and Johnson winning 4 favorable to him. Republican returns from 302 or 100 per cent of the 302 precincts showed Nixon getting a GOP detefutes. the Democratic vice presMeaUal preferential write-to retorw from 111 or the state's 302 pcecwctt gave Vice President Hubert Humphray 7,174 votes of per cent of the totes, and Kennedy or 17 per cent, and others 31 per cent.

Mr. K. D. 1, WippffBy it 1, it: SI GLORIA WOLFORD PITTSBURGH (UPD-Cities ooking for federal aid for mass ransit programs may have to wait until the end of the Vietnam War. Transportation Secretary Alan Boyd and Sen.

Gordon Allott Colorado gave this warning 1,400 experts from 100 cities Tuesday at the windup of the third annual International Con- erence on Urban Transportation. "Current conditions will not permit a greatly increased fed- ral mass transit program even though the need for one may be resent," Allott, a member of he Senate Appropriations Committee, said. Boyd said there was "no joint" to discussing ways to obtain more federal funds "until after Vietnam." "I am unable to see the end the war now," Boyd said. 5 lans for generating funds would only be theoretical. We have enough practical prob- ems." "Grtattst Btntfit" In the meantime, what funds are available will be distributed .0 the cities with the best program, he said.

"Rather than try to nickel and dime all over the country, we would pick the city where here would be the greatest benefit," Boyd said. If a city needed $300,000 to plan a program and had $100,000 in local funds but the federal government could grant only $50,000, there would be no point in making the grant because the job could not be done, Boyd said. Meanwhile, Gov. Otto Kerner of Illinois blamed a lack of adequate transportation for unemployment and underemployment in city slums. "Providing employment for the Negro ghetto population will require society to link these potential workers more closely with job locations," Kerner warned.

"The truth is we, have poured millions of dollars into airport construction for the small, elite flying public and billions into highways for prosperous city- bound suburbanites while money starved mass transit systems and passenger carrying railroads have received mere pennies," Kerner said. Strtsiti Starts' Kelt Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New York, who received the conference's award this year, stressed the importance of states in helping develop city transit systems. He received the award for his efforts in securing voter approval of a $2.5 billion transportation bond issue which will be used for both highways and mass transit. It was the largest bond issue ever approved by any state and New York became the first state to begin subsidizing transit programs.

Gov. Raymond P. Shafer of Pennsylvania, in a speech Tuesday night, called for a $2 million expenditure for mass transportation in his state. Citing a recent law establishing a Transportation Assistance Authority, Shafer said, "This is the beginning of our public commitment to urban transportation problems in our state."
