Humphrey conceded that it would be "quite a hassle" if the convention ignores the court, but said he felt it has the right to do so. The appeals court based. its intervention on the conclusion that the party had ignored its own rules to the point where constitutional guarantees of due process were violated.

Califor? nia law awarded all the delegates to the winner. today to give the high court time to act if it wishes. The Supreme Court has held only three special sessions in its history. "We feel this case is as compelling and more compelling" than those which prompted the other sessions, said Democratic National Committee counsel Joseph A. Califano in Miami Beach.

"The courts should not get involved in selecting delegates." McGovern forces announced Wednesday afternoon that the appeals-court action gave their candidate more than the 1,509 delegate votes needed for nomination. The Associated Press delegate count, which does not list officially uncommitted delegates who are leaning toward a candidate, showed McGovern with 1,4.16.65 votes. But Humphrey was in no mood to concede. He noted that the Supreme Court had not yet spoken, and argued further that MMMm 1 J'Wt A A LEGAL RESIDENCE The first of the camper- from the City Council.

The decision carries with it Sen. George McGovern's renewed hopes for a first-ballot presidential nomination. The Democratic party hierarchy and forces of Chicago Mayor Richard J.

Daley both are fighting a U.S. appeals court ruling but for different reasons. The party hierarchy asked Burger to suspend the effect of the appeals court ruling, which Wednesday overrode the party Credentials Committee to allow McGovern to recover 151 California convention delegates. The Daley forces are seeking just the opposite effect, contending that federal courts should intervene in order to seat Daley and 58 other Illinois delegates ousted by the Credentials Committee. There was no indication when the chief justice might act.

The Court of Appeals restored to McGovern the full 271-vote California reversing the committee's vote to take more than half the number from him and apportion them to other primary candidates, chiefly Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey. The court suspended the effect of its rulings until 2 p.m. Hijack Attempt Halted By FBI; Three Killed Decision on County Workers Union Election Due Shortly annex May 4, at which time representatives of the county and union agreed that county employes should be represented by two bargaining units.

One unit, according to James C.

Umbrell said that because the Board ruled that Parole and The State Labor Relations Board is expected to make a decision on whether to conduct a union election for county employes. The decision i expected to be announced within a week, according to an LRB spokesman.

The American Federation of State, Municipal and County Employes petitioned the LRB for an election after slowdown in negotiations with Franklin County officials in March. A hearing on the petition was held by the LRB in the courthouse HHH Says Wallace Would Support Him Lawmakers Make Little Progress Toward Budget WAVERLY, Minn. (AP) -Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey says he believes Alabama Gov.

George C. Wallace would support him for president if he is the Democratic nominee. "He could be an active spokesman for some of us," Humphrey said Wednesday. "I believe he could and would give me support." Humphrey also said he thinks Wallace would support Sen. Henry M.

Jackson of Washington if Jackson is the nominee, and possibly Sen. Edmund S. Muskie of Maine, but not Sen. George McGovern of South Dakota. Humphrey, who lately has adopted a conciliatory stance toward Wallace on issues other than civil rights, said he believes that if the Democratic National Convention fails to choose a nominee on the first or second ballot, up (o 75 per cent of Wallace's delegates would support Humphrey.

Humphrey once said flatly he couldn't accept Wallace as a vice presidential running mate, but dropped that stance after losing the California primary to McGovern. He has encouraged fellow Democrats to make Wallace welcome at the convention, which begins Monday in Miami Beach, Fla. Humphrey was interviewed Wednesday at his lakeside home here, where he is resting before flying to Miami on and like the other was dead on arrival at the hospital. The hijackers also held the plane's five crew members. It was the first time the FBT had charged aboard a loaded passenger airliner to put an end to a hijacking.

Wednesday's hijacking occurred at 10:10 a.m., shortly after the plane left the airport in Sacramento on a flight to Los Angeles via San Francisco. It landed at San Francisco International Airport, then took off, circled the city and landed again. The gunmen killed Wednesday were identified from cards in their pockets as Dimitr Alexieff, 28, of Hayward, and Michael Azmanoff, 28, of San Francisco. The passenger dead on arrival at Peninsula Hospital in nearby Burlingame was Stanley Carter, 66, identified as a retired Canadian National Railway conductor from Long-ueuil. Que.

The wounded passengers, reported in fair condition at the hospital, were identified as Leo A. Gormley, 46, of Van Nuys. and Victor Sen Yung, 56, a Universal City, actor who plays the Chinese cook in the TV series "Bonanza." After landing and then taking off and circling San Francisco for an hour, the plane sat for five hours at the end of the runway while negotiations by radio continued and the money and materials were collected. Under orders from the hijackers who sought an "international pilot," a FBI agent dressed as one approached the plane carrying the money, Gebhardt and Dave Gardclla, PSA security director, said. Clears Way Chess Match However, Fischer brushed aside a demand from the Soviet Chess Federation that he forfeit the first match because of his tardy arrival.

He said this "would place me tremendous handicap" and.h didn't believe the "world's champion desires such an advantage in order to play me" "I know you to be a sportsman and a gentleman, and I am looking forward to some exciting chess games with you," Fischer concluded. Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation, -said he didn't penalize Fischer for his late arrival in Iceland because the American challenger is "living in another world." He said Spassky, the Russian world title holder, was "very upset" and that he would like to give him another week before the first game, WEATHER OUTLOOK Partly cloudy with the chance of a shower today and early this evening.

death'today (Obituary on Page 9) Mr. Jacob Sollenlwrgir, 82, It.R.l, St. Thomas. Pacific Southwest Airline Boeing 737 taken over by two hijackers for six hours Wednesday. "Certainly we're not pleased that three passengers were wounded," said Robert Geb-hardt, FBI special agent in charge.

He made the comment before learning that one of the passengers had died. "But," he said in response to a reporter's question, "somebody had to make a decision." Three FBI men who had sneaked up under the fuselage of the plane rushed aboard after the hijackers refused to release 81 passengers, Geb-hardt said. The slain hijackers had demanded two parachutes, and passage to Siberia shortly after taking the plane over in the air, officials said. Gebhardt said the FBI men moved in on the plane only after the hijackers refused to release the passengers until the ransom was handed over. "I saw two FBI men enter the plane," said Dr.

Manuel Alvarez, 58, of Sacramento, a passenger. "The first came through with his hands on his head, and the second came up shooting, blasting away with a shotgun." DID NOT FIRE The hijacker "crumpled to the floor," said Alvarez. The FBI said the. gunman had an automatic in each hand but did not open fire. In the rear of the plane, the other hijacker had another automatic and fired at least three shots, the FBI said.

The second hijacker went down almost immediately from FBI gunfire, Gebhardt said, Fischer Move For Start of REYKJAVIK, Iceland (A?) Bobby Fischer made a full and penitent apology to Boris Spassky today, and organizers of the world chess championship match said the two would meet for their first game Sunday night. The organizers said it had been agreed in principle to hold the drawing tonight to determine which player would have the white pieces and with them the first move. The young American, in a letter delivered by hand this morning to the world chess champion from the Soviet Union, apologized for his "disrespectful behavior." Fischer, whose delayed arrival doubled the prize money for both him and Spassky but also started an avalanche of confusion, asked the Russian to "accept my sincercst apology." "I simply became carried away by my petty dispute over money with the Icelandic chess organizers," he wrote. The written apology from the American challenger was one of the chief conditions posed by the Itussians before Spassky would sit down at the chess board with Fischer. Fischer told Spassky: "I have offended you and your country, the Soviet Union, where chess has a prestigious position." The temperamental American also apologized to Dr.

Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation, the Icelanders, "the thousands of fans around the world and especially to the millions of fans and the many friends I have in the United States." SAN FRANCISCO (AP) wanted to stop the hijacking and stop it we did," said the FBI special agent in chaige, describing how authorities stormed a pirated aircraft and killed two hijackers in a gun battle while passengers were still aboard. Officials said shots fired by ore of the hijackers killed a passenger and wounded two others after federal agents charged aboard an interstate "I think that Wallace is going to stay in the party," Humphrey said. "I've said that from the beginning and everything I've said or done has been directed toward that objective because I believe that if he, even in his present physical condition, were to bolt the party, it would be very injurious to us." If McGovern is the nominee, Humphrey said, "the question is would Wallace come out for Nixon. After my visit with him, I think it's less likely." Humphrey visited Wallace last week in the Maryland hospital where Wallace is recuperating from gunshot wounds suffered several weeks ago at a campaign rally. During the interview, Humphrey said he will stay in the race for the nomination even if it means a walkout by McGovern supporters.

Humphrey said he thinks McGovern has hurt his chances for the nomination by threatening to run as an independent candidate if the Democrats deny him the nomination in a way he feels is unfair. Humphrey also said he doesn't take that threat entirely seriously. "Maybe the wish is father of the thought, but I tend to discount it," Humphrey said. He added that such a threat won't influence his decision to stay in the race. "I surely would not submit to political blackmail," he said.

but took up defensive positions on the southern edge. Reliable sources said Lt. Gen. Ngo Quang Truong, commander of the counteroffensive, is moving cautiously in hopes of keeping his casualties to a minimum. Field reports said 180 North Vietnamese were killed in clashes around Quang Tri City on Wednesday.

South Vietnamese losses were said to be 10 killed and 90 wounded. Thirty miles to the south of the nine-day-old drive, the North Vietnamese shelled Hue with 122mm artillery for the fifth day. About" 100 shells hit the former imperial capital, but half of them were duds. One person was reported wounded, and a Uoman Catholic church and a home were badly damaged. On the southern front, the Saigon command claimed that 208 North Vietnamese were killed and 45 weapons captured in fighting along the Cambodian border 50 miles west of Saigon.

Four South Vietnamese were reported killed and 31 wounded. Probation officers and others must come under a separate unit, the union has since petitioned for a professional and court-related employe unit, which would include these, plus Sheriff's Department members, which the board ruled would also have to be separate from the other units. Child Care Department workers would also come under this new category. No date for a hearing on the third unit has yet been set by the LRB. The AFSCME commenced a campaign to unionize county employes in January and by February told county commissioners that 60 per cent of the 120 to 130 eligible workers had signed cards signifying that they wanted AFSCME representation.

Queried why only eight county employes showed up for the most recent union meeting, June 14, Umbrell said "We're now in a stagnant period, with nothing happening pending the Labor Board's decision." He said he was confident the union would be representing the county workers by the time the commissioners work on setting next year's salary schedule. Boeing Gets OK For China Deal WASHINGTON (AP) The United States and mainland China may ring up a total of $200 million in trade during 1972, highlighted by a proposed $150-million deal for Boeing 707 jet aircraft. The Commerce Department Wednesday announced that an export license has been issued for the Boeing jets, destined for civilian-airline Use by the People's Republic of China. Boeing officials have been negotiating for months with the Chinese government for the sale, spokesmen said. The Commerce Department said it did not require contracts in hand before issuing a license.

Boeing Co. officials say they are optimistic the sale will go through rapidly since they now have official approval. American officials estimate Chinese sales to the United States this year will be between $40 million and $50 million. The United States has bought an average of $2.5 million worth of Chinese goods per month thus far this year. A large number of American businessmen are going to China in August and there will be a larger number of American firms represented at the Canton Trade Fair in October than were present at the April Canton Fair.

Chinese sales to the United Stales are mainly of such commodities as tungsten, handicrafts, canned and some frozen foods, silks and pig bristles for cosmetics and brushes.

(AP)-Pennsylvania entered its sixth day without power to spend money today as the legislature inched imperceptiblly toward adopting a budget for the new fiscal year. The six lawmakers appointed to break the budget impasse finally got around to meeting late Wednesday, four days after their But the four Democrats and two Republicans found themselves so far apart on how to spend Commonwealth revenue in the next 12 months that they adjourned within minutes to ponder the budget individually. The House and Senate both convened for the day, went into recess to wait for the conference committee and ad-j without a single vote once word emerged of the committee's slow progress. The four Democratic conferees spent the day in consultations with the governor's office, in strategy sessions with each other and in vain attempts to talk a bloc of upstate House Democrats out of their opposition to Gov. Shapp's general appropriations request.

The two Republicans, called to the first committee meeting at 2:30 p.m., waited until 3:10 p.m. for the Democrats to show up. After preliminaries, the Democrats asked the Republi- I Ami' A.rV 4 NAMED Pierre Messmcr, above, was named Premier of France Wednesday by President Georges Pompidou, succeeding Jacques Chaman-Delmas.

The GOP was called back in at about 4:30 p.m. and told that its drive to cut $150 million from Shapp's budget was "unacceptable," according to Rep. Jack Seltzer, R-Lebanon, minority appropriations chairman in the House. At about 5:15 p.m., the committee gave up until Thursday. NO AGREEMENTS Senate Appropriations man Benjamin Donolow, D-Philadelphia, said the conference committee's work was "slow." He maintained it had made "some progress," despite "no agreements on anything." Sen.

Newell Wood, R-Lu-zerne, said the session was "exploratory. Nobody came up with any ideas that seemed to have the blessings of those assembled." He added there was "no disagreement but lack of any agreement." Each day without a final budget or temporary, stop-gap appropriations delays relief checks to about 35,000 additional welfare recipients and forces Pennsylvania creditors and state employes to wait another 24 hours for payment. Democrats could pass a budget close toxthat urged by Gov. Shapp were it not for a group of about 20 dissident House members, led by Rep. Kent D.

Shelhamer, D-Colum-bia. Shelhamer said Wednesday that his upstate group still supported cuts of about $150 million they made two weaks ago with the Unanimous backing of Republicans. Nearly half of the cuts came from a $73 million revenue sharing plan originally de-Signed to give $49 million to Philadelphia and Allegheny Counties alone. Despite falk that the balking Democrats might agree to revenue-sharing under a revised formula, Shelhamer. denied any appreciable change in his position.

"We're not necessarily against revenue sharing in principle," Shelhamer said, "but we're against it at the present time, under the lousy tax structure we have. With a graduated tax, maybe then we could expand into revenue sharing." DEMOS SUPPORT The $73 million program in Shapp's budget, supported fully by urban Democrats, would defray local costs for courts, child welfare, mental health, prisons and community colleges. Viet Troops Advance On Enemy-held Capital SAIGON (AP) U.S. Navy fighter-bombers pounded North Vietnamese bunkers south of Quang Tri City today, trying to blast open a path for a task force of South Vietnamese paratroopers advancing on the enemy-held provincial capital. Associated Press correspondent Dennis Neeld reported from the northern front that the carrier planes bombed a line of bunkers about 2'i miles from the center of Quang Tri City.

The bunkers were concealed in a row of homes shaded by trees and flanking Highway 1. Two companies of North Vietnamese troops, perhaps 200 or more men, were reported entrenched in the bunkers and firing on the paratroopers despite the air attacks. An American adviser with the paratroopers, Capt. Gail Furrow, 32, of Urbana, Ohio, told Neeld the battalion he is with could have pushed into Quang Tri City on Wednesday but it was essential to secure the highway before advancing. Other paratroopers penetrated the city limits Tuesday Snorts 21-22-23 Women.
