(Mai Linh and Hai Lang, six miles southeast of Quang Tri, were the first to be recaptured of 14 towns that fell during the three-month-old enemy offensive. (US aircraft accidentally bombed South Vietnamese marines northeast of Quang Tri on Tuesday and first reports said 11 marines were killed and 25 were wounded. (The mistaken bombing was disclosed yesterday by the US Command, which had scant details.

VIETNAM, Page 8 By Jack Foisie Los Angeles Times OUTSIDE QUANG TRI South Vietnamese troops were reported at the edge of Quang Tri city yesterday, but recapture of the big town seized by Hanoi troops two months ago still seems days off. "I don't think it's going to be a walk-in," said an American adviser, Capt. Gail Furrow of Urbana, Ohio. "No matter how long it takes, we'll be in Quang Tri," Furrow said, referring to the airborne troopers he advises. "These little fellows are tigers." (Associated Press said the South Vietnamese paratroopers who penetrated the southeastern city limits of Quang Tri killed at least 20 North Vietnamese defenders and recaptured a dozen artillery pieces lost when the province felL (Allied sources said several hundred airborne troops staged an assault against enemy defensive strongholds and set up their own defensive dispositions at nightfall, a half mile from the city center.

"The President of the United States has picked up the 'never never' battle cry and is leading the mob in its assault upon the Fourteenth Amendment's equal protection clause," the group said at its annual convention.

WASHINGTON Perhaps the most important of all the reasons why the Indochina war doesn't end is the United States' insistence on keeping up its economic and military aid to the Thieu regime in Saigon, and the other side's equally vehement insistence that such aid cease. This is really a quarrel over a far more basic question, namely will the United States insist on keeping the A company' gobbled Thieu government from collapsing from its own incompetent weight, quite apart from any shoves the Viet Cong or North Vietnamese may give it. The Nixon Administration's answer to this one is yes, and to understand why one need look no further than the South Vietnamese economy, went and you will get an official answer but jdon't you believe it. Nobody really knows. The construction workers who were here will tell you one thing for sure: if you needed something built in a hurry there was never another outfit like KMK-BRJ.

At the $50-million port facility built by the company, the dignitaries of Saigon gathered Monday to mark the official end of construction in Vietnam by RMK-BRJ. The hard hat executives squeeded into uncomfor on earlier warned that the convention may break its nonpartisan tradition-and call for Mr. Nixon's defeat in November. Concerning the resolution, Roy Wilkins, executive director of the National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People, said the resolution "condemns Nixon because Nixon is the President of the United States and has no business leading the fight for a constitutional amendment against busing." NAACP, Page 10 Delegations battle remains a cliff -hanger By Jim Mann Washington Post WASHINGTON A three-judge panel of the US Court of Appeals here, in an extraordinary Fourth of July session, heard arguments for four hours on the crucial Democratic credentials challenges in California and Illinois, and then recessed for the night without announcing a decision in the cases.

The judges are expected to announce their decision today. Afterwards, the losing sides will almost certainly try to persuade Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren E. Burger to convene a special summer session of the high court to review the credentials cases. At stake in the California case are the presidential hopes of Sen. George McGovern.

At stake in the Illinois case is the future role within the Democratic Party of one of its veteran kingmakers, Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley. In the California case, the McGovern forces are appealing the ruling of the Democratic Credentials Committee last Thursday that the delegates from California's primary should not be awarded on a winner-take-all basis as state law had provided. That credentials ruling stripped McGovern of 151 delegates at a time when he appeared within striking distance of a first-ballot victory in Miami. Most of those seats were awarded to supporters of Sen.

ECONOMY, Page 23 up $2 billion table ties and baked in the monsoon heat while US Ambassador Ellsworth Bunker (whose new embassy was also built by the company), noted the roads, bridges, airfields, schools, hospitals and whatnot that will be left behind. "It has been a gigantic task," Bunker said.

"One that is worthy of taking its place with the great epics of American engineering, logistics and construction genius." CONSTRUCTION, Page 23 By Al Larkin and Steve Wermiel Globe Staff Reputed Mafia chieftain Gennaro (Gerry) Angiulo, 52, was arrested by the Coast Guard yesterday after he allegedly assaulted a Coast Guard officer attempting to board his 40-foot cruiser. A key figure in Boston's underworld activities, Angiulo was taken into custody at a Dorchester marina where he, and a party of friends and relatives aboard his cruiser, had docked shortly after 2 p.m. ANGIULO, Page 12 "He (Mr. Nixon) is invading the prerogative of a co-equal branch of government, the judiciary, by proposing legislation designed to interfere with the power of the courts to correct constitutional violations. He is arousing passions of hate and bitterness," the resolution said.

The NAACP said it would use its total resources to fight "any strategy or device designed to inhibit or interfere with the power or courts to utilize busing as a t5ol for correcting constitutional violations." The NAACP's highest officer shrapnel wounds in the left arm and leg while Sirois, more ly injured, was struck in the chest and arms. They said a 4-inch piece of metal was removed from the Hogan boy's chest. The cannon was described by police as an antique that had been in the Sirois family for years. EXPLOSIONS, Page 5 Angiulo charged in assault on Coast Guard officer By George McArthur Los Angeles Times SAIGON In the beginning the Pentagon figured that $5 million would handle the job and the auditors were so tight-fisted they questioned the import of salt shakers for the work camps. That was 10 years and $2 billion and God knows how many salt shakers ago.

You can ask where the $2 billion IN THIS CORNER Mycology mushrooms as pastime WASHINGTON The woods are full of mushroom hunters, who would as soon nibble a deadly "destroying angel" as reveal their trade secrets. A housewife gathered 286 morels, an especially tasty variety, in two hours to win an annual mushroom hunt held in Boyne City, Mich. Asked how she did it, she replied: "Just knowing where to look." No more. A veteran mycophile (mushroom lover) writing for novices solemnly advised: "If you should find a bonanza, remember one thing: Don't tell anyone where you found it." A Minnesota mycophile recently claimed mushroom hunting is the fastest-growing outdoor activity in the United States, second only to archery. In Iowa, dogs have been pressed into the hunt.

A Des Moines man claims his spaniel, Gertie, is so adept, "She points with her left foot when she has found a good bunch of mushrooms and with her right foot when she runs across just one or a few small ones."

(Globe photo by Ed Farrand) cannon kills Danvers boy, 5 GENNARO ANGIULO arrested Exploding By Frank Donovan and Joe Pilati Globe Staff Accidental Fourth of July explosions killed two youngsters and injured three other persons in Massachusetts yesterday. In Danvers, an exploding miniature cannon killed a 5-year-old boy ana Piously injured his father and uncle. A Worcester teenager died and another youth was critically injured when a homemade firecracker exploded.

And police in East Bridgewater were investigating an explosion which damaged a railroad trestle. Danvers officials said Edward Hogan 3d, 5, of 164 Hobart was dead on arrival at nearby Hunt Memorial Hospital after he was struck in the chest with shrapnel from the exploding cannon. The cause of the blast was not immediately determined, but police said the youngster was standing in a nearby garage with his father and uncle when the cannon exploded. The father, Edward Hogan and his brother-in-law, David Sirois, 25, of 160 Hobart were also taken to Hunt Memorial Hospital, where they underwent emcrgtney surgery- Doctors said Hogan suffered New Englanders celebrated the 196th anniversary of their country's independence yesterday under beautiful skies at beaches, outings and parades. President Nixon, in a holiday address, looked toward the bicentennial in 1976.
