Boston Evening Globe Tuesday, March 21, 1972 Muskie, Mayor Daley run risks in Illinois primary Ask tlie Globe a 1 United Press International CHICAGO The nation's third 1972 primary Illinois today posed crucial risks to the Presidential hopes of Sen. Edmund S. Muskie and to the power of one of the last Democratic kingmakers, Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley. The battle of three Democratic presidential contenders Muskie, Sen.

George S. McGovern and former Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy was matched by a spirited fight over who will stand for governor for the Democrats' and a Chicago free-for-all Paul Simon, a one-time party rebel now opposing all-out rebel Daniel Walker for governor, and on Raymond Berg, a former chief traffic court judge Daley slated for state's attorney after he had already endorsed incumbent Edward V. Hanra-han.

Hanrahan was dumped after he failed to squelch an indictment criarging him with conspiracy to obstruct justice in a police raid in which two Black Panther leaders were killed. Hanrahan is still in the race, however, along with feisty independent Donald Page Moore, and both pose threats to Daley. The presidential contenders ASK THE GLOBE acts enters, sokes problems, cuis red tafe. Phone 258-1515 any time or Ask the Globe, Boston Globe, Boston, Mass. C2107.

The eclumn is in the Etemnf Glebe and Sunday Globe Magazine, Which is the correct place of birth: the city whore your parents reside at the time or the city where the hospital is located? R.M., Wal-tham. A A birth certificate lists the city where the hospital is located as place of birth. The original is filed with that city clerk. A copy is sent to the clerk of the city or town where the parents reside. over the office of state's attorney.

Daley's prestige was on the line in both races. The combination of these races and Illinois-' first presidential primary of significance was expected to bring out a near record vote of more than 2 million, despite the threat of thundershowers in many areas. Muskie's task was to rebound from his unimpressive win in New Hampshire and his distant fourth place finish behind Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace in Florida.

Muskie must pull a significant number of the national convention delegates at stake from McGovern, ranged much the length of Illinois Monday, then got in a few hours' sleep and prepared to take off for Wisconsin. Along the way of their last day in Illinois: Muskie walked Chicago's State Street as a loud speaker blared, "Right here, right now, meet $en. Ed Muskie, the next President of the United States." In a moment of quiet, Muskie tried to shrug off the latest gallup poll showing his 1968 running mate, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, leading him as the favorite of the nation's Democrats.

"I've been watching these polls for three years now," he said. "When they're up, I like 'em. When they're down, I don't." HUMPHREY'S BLACK. HUMOR Campaigning in Wisconsin primary, Sen. Hubert Humphrey spoke to about 100 blacks, injecting some political wit.

HHH-Kennedy the ticket for '72? current standing in the polls suggest who is his major opposition in Illinois' first election of delegates in a primary. LISAGOR Continued from Page 1 Sen.

Edward M. Kennedy has re at the young, and he would make the threat of a Wallace challenge, either in or out of the party, less menacing, in the judgment of some party professionals. Kennedy partisans say he would spurn any offer to run with Humphrey, or any other presidential nominee, but more detached observers believe the vice presidency might be tempting to him as a way to wipe out the memory of Chappa-quidick and to enhance his prospects of making it to the White House himself later on. "Kennedy needs rehabilitation, Humphrey needs a broader appeal, especially to the young," says one Democratic politician here who believes a Humphrey-Kennedy ticket that many other Democrats see Humphrey as a lively prospect. In traditional political terms, a Humphrey-Kennedy ticket would provide a desirable balance, in age, geography and religion an older Midwestern Protestant teamed with a young Eastern Catholic.

"If the idea in politics, as in commerce, is to bring two people together who have a need for what each has, you could do. a lot worse," says one veteran politico. It is reasoned that Kennedy as a running mate could "turn on" those voters Humphrey allegedly "turns off," notably the youth and liberals who perceive Humphrey as a middle-aged convert to a more conservative approach on national issues. If Kennedy were on the ticket, he McGovern had trouble keeping sight of his wife in the swirling crowds, largely composed of children, who surrounded them at a housing project in economically depressed East St. Louis.

The South Dakotan listened to a man in a T-shirt who buttonholed him and said, "I'm locked in the ghetto with no way out." McGovern promised that "a decent environment" for everyone was one of his chief goals and, of his own chances, said 30 delegates from Illinois would be a "respectable showing." McCarthy was across the Mississippi River in St. Louis, telling reporters he figured to get at least 30 percent of the preferential votes, "But I am not conceding the remaining 70 percent to Muskie." "I will not drop out of other primaries if results are discouraging tomorrow," McCarthy said. "We have given it a pretty good try in Illinois." I bought a new gas stove from an appliance store and refused to pay an appliance store and refused to pay the fee for having the old stove removed. Now I am stuck with it? D.W., Somerville. A Boston Gas will remove old gas appliances for $10 if you buy your new appliance from the company.

Other stores charge a fee from $6 to $12 and you would do well to make arrangements with them. Morgan Memorial and other charities do not collect old gas appliances because they are expensive to repair and may be unsafe. And he must look formidable against McCarthy, the former Minnesota senator who is making Illinois' separate, nonbinding preferential primary the first real test of hia pulling power since he shook the Democratic Party in 1968. McGovern passed up the preferential contest. If Muskie fails in either endeavor, his forces are likely to be in sad disarray when he enters Wisconsin and takes on the Democratic field in the April 4 primary there.

Results of the Muskie-McCarthy faceoff are likely to be known tonight. An accurate delegate count may take days and about half of those elected are expected to be "un- committed," meaning committed to Daley's eventual choice. Daley is more likely to be worrying about other things tonight. He has put his bets on Lt. Gov.

peatedly insisted he has no intention or wish to run for President this year, and his disavowals have been taken seriously by many who believe that the accident at Chappaqui-dick would be an insurmountable hurdle for him at the head of the ticket. As a vice presidential candidate, however, the questions and doubts raised about Kennedy would be diminished and his assets maximized according to those seeking a way to utilize the Massachusetts Democrat's obvious appeal to many elements in the party. Humphrey's supporters, including some powerful chieftains in big labor, believe the Minnesotan, who came within an eyelash of beating Mr. Nixon in 1968, deserves another crack at the White House, and his is not only a viable one but entirely conceivable unless Muskie regains his poise and establishes himself as a certified winner in today's Illinois primary but more importantly in the April 4 Wisconsin primary. probably would frustrate and undercut any fourth party candidacy aimed ITT easy as 1 (memo), 2 (memos), 3 (versions of same memo) In November I sent a check to the Miles Kimball Co.

Today the case involved three different memos or maybe three versions of the same memo. An Anderson aide who examined the second document told UPI it appeared to be irrelevant to the over-, all case. An ITT spokesman said it was true that it was unrelated in content to the Anderson memeo except for the reference to San Diego. And then ITT released information which seemed to indicate that there was yet a third memo. It gave the judiciary panel an affidavit from Mrs.

They also mentioned then Attorney General John N. Mitchell, President Nixon and other administration aides, although there was no mention of the antitrust suit. Mrs.

She said she remembered a memo containing parts similar to Anderson's memo, but did not recall other paragraphs quoted by the columnist. The antitrust suit was later settled with ITT being allowed to keep Hartford Fire Insurance Co. as one of its holdings, although it had to divest several other subsidiaries.

Mrs. Beard later called Anderson's memo a hoax, and ITT on Monday sent the Senate Judiciary Committee a second memo which it labeled "the genuine Beard memorandum." This second memo was dated June 25 the same date as the Anderson version: but it appeared to be a job description by Mrs. Beard to her boss, with a brief reference to the fact that she was working on The new twist in the complicated case developed Monday when International Telephone Telegraph Corp. released a second memo a lengthy statement which it said proved that columnist Jack Anderson's charges against it were based on a fraudulent document. Anderson initiated the flap last month when he uncovered what he said was a memo written by ITT lobbyist Dita A.

Beard in which she linked an ITT offer to subsidize the GOP national convention in San Diego this summer to a favorable settlement of a big antitrust suit by the government against ITT. ITT has told the Judiciary Committee that records in its Washington office were destroyed at one point to prevent them from getting into public print. The company said it uncovered the new document in its New York office. It also supplied an affidavit from William R. Merriam, a vice president in charge of the ITT Washington office, in which he said he did receive Mrs.

Beard's newly discovered job description memo of June 25 but denied ever seeing anything like the Anderson version. A few hours before ITT released its statement, Anderson accused the Judiciary Committee of having handed the original ropy of his memo over to the Justice Department.
