The convention was so open that the man of the hour didn't get to deliver his major televised speech to the nation until the small hours of the morning when the country had gone to bed. Seven fellow Democrats allowed their names to be placed in nomination for the vice-presidential spot in token opposition to Mr.

McGovern's choice, Sen. Thomas Eagleton of Missouri. About 70 different people got votes in the interminable roll call vote which followed all the nominating speeches. Sen. Eagleton was duly nominated, spoke manfully, and the man who picked him only a few hours earlier, finally reached the rostrum not long before 3 a.m.

Among the still full house these new Democratic delegates have become used to being up until dawn working every night this week was Sen. Edward Kennedy, flown in from Massachusetts to aid in the job of unifying the party. He said the party had met "the test of greatness" with the McGovern-Eagleton ticket, and they cheered and danced. Sen. McGovern's prepared speech was an eloquent cry to "come home, America." He asked the party to unite with him so that: "Together, we will call America home to the See UNKNOWN Page 2 BELFAST (AP) British soldiers and Irish terrorists fought all-night gun battles here that left at least six persons dead today, dozens injured and the shooting still going on at lunch time.

The gunfire centred on the bullet-scarred Lenadoon Avenue area of Andersonstown where terrorists from the Irish Republican Army broke a two-week ceasefire last Sunday. The British army, in a major switch of tactics, launched an offensive in this area Thursday night to flush out the snipers and literally brought war to the suburbs of Belfast. More than 700 British troops, some with their faces blackened in commando style, advanced under cover of rose bushes and garden fences in this middle-class neighborhood drawing fire from snipers in homes there. The army claimed to have hit more than 30 gunmen in these skirmishes, but recovered no bodies. Wounded IRA mei are often dragged away by comrades to receive medical treatment outside hospitals.

One soldier died in the Lenadoon skirmishes and two other troopers and three civilians died elsewhere during the night of violence. The army reported four soldiers wounded in the gun battles, none of them seriously. Heavy gunfire was heard near army posts in Roman Catholic areas of the city all morning. Among them the notorious Falls Road, Ardoyne and Divis Street areas. The widespread shooting brought a prediction from one See VIRTUAL Page 2 -f-if y- fn jWitiirrtwr- Paper company to export power OTTAWA (CP) A Fort Frances, power paper company has won cabinet approval to export electric power to its U.S.

parent across the border, despite local fears that the decision could cost jobs. Energy Minister Donald Macdonald announced Thursday that the cabinet has upheld a national energy board ruling to permit Ontario-Minnesota Pulp and Paper Co. Ltd. to export power to Boise Cascade International Falls, Minn. The minister's statement said the board had acknowledged during hearings on the case the "concern by residents of Northwestern Ontario about a possible relationship between exports of power and loss of employment opportunities." But the board said in its report to cabinet that two developments occurred between the first set of board hearings that began in November, 1970, and a second on Oct.

16, 1971. First, it said, Boise shelved plans for any "significant industrial expansion" at its U.S. plant. So the "new employment will be relatively small." Second, Ontario Hydro had increased the price of power. The board concluded that the main factor determining where the firm invests and therefore creates jobs is the "impact of the U.S.

tariffs on paper and wood products. "The high level of these tariffs precludes any assumptions that withholding the power would have caused the developments which have taken place at International Falls to be built in Canada." The nine-year licences replace an existing permit that was to expire in 1970 but was extended while the new decision was being made.

Complete with FN rifles and combat Hopes rise at Paris talks By TIM CREERY SNS PARIS The resumption of the Paris conference on Vietnam Thursday has offered a glimmer of hope that the four-year-old talks will be transformed from a tragic farce into serious negotiations leading to a postwar coalition government for South Vietnam.

Although a quick end to the war is still not in sight, the United States has agreed to give serious study to Communist demand for a parallel solution of military and political problems. The North Vietnamese and the Vietcong are adamant in demanding that South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu must leave office before there is a military ceasefire. The outlook is for a long slow process of bargaining combined with the ritual of weekly meetings of the conference itself, at which each of the four parties read speeches and rebuttals to one another. It seems unlikely that the Communists would agree to any final settlement before the presidential elections in November. As in 1968, they would hope to benefit from competitive peace promises by the two candidates.

But perhaps one should not discount altogether the possibility that President Nixon and Dr. Henry Kissinger will be able to put together a combination of pressure and concession that would persuade them to settle earlier. Much will obviously depend on the pressure that President Nixon himself feels he is under in the election contest. Meantime Nixon is determined to keep the talks going now that he has agreed to their See HOPES Page 2 honGv! line there Buck in 9 was not allowed to take any females last summer. But he added that Maritime Command decided to accept the girls this year on the premise that the whole idea is to put needed money into the hands of students.

The militia girls, now adjusting to baggy fatigue uniforms, FN rifles which seem to weigh a ton, and the barking commands of drill sergeants, will receive general military training throughout the six-week program. They will also go to either Cedar Springs or Ipperwash for a week in the field with tents and hard rations the order of the day. Nine more girls have enlisted with 37 males in the separate community improvement phase of the program. But they will not be in uniform. Local militia officers, who say the switch to female recruits is happening across the province, are unable to pinpoint the reasons for it But factors like short hair cuts, which remain a must in military life, and fewer summer jobs for girls, are thought to be part of the answer.

By GORD McNULTY Ready and rarin' for a summer of uniforms, rifles and battlefields, dozens of girls have joined the militia, a traditional bastion of male supremacy if ever there was one. The number of girls, who account for half of the first-year recruits in the federal student summer employment program of the Windsor Militia District which began Monday, has soared in the wake of declining interest by the stouter sex. Thirty girls have enlisted with 30 males in Windsor, while 10 of 21 recruits in Chatham are girls. And the militia, which last year trained just four girls out of 60 recruits, is wondering where the men went. The story is the same at HMCS Hunter, where 31 girls will be employed out of 70 students hired for the naval reserve summer training program.

"Arid we don't have a date when we will be in there. It could possibly be in 1974, or maybe 1973." The regional government says the bill is actually for "organizational" expenses laid out by the regional police. However, it sent the township a $27,000 refund. "That's a lot better than we first understood we had to pay," said Mayor William Brooks in an interview.

The mayor said the patrols by provincial police are sufficient and will likely continue for several years. He sees no need for a municipal police force in the township. But he said it's the future he's concerned with. If the "complicated formula" used to determine this year's police costs is replaced with an equalized assessment formula, the township's share will be more than $100,000 he said. SMITHVILLE, Ont.

(CP) Residents of West Lincoln Township south of St. Catharines don't like paying for something they don't get and don't really think they need. The 8,400 inhabitants have been billed $43,489 by the provincial government for a police force they won't be getting at least for some time. In 1970 the government amalgamated 26 municipalities in the Niagara Peninsula to form the Regional Municipality of Niagara and last year municipal police departments joined to form a regional force. West Lincoln Township has never had a police force and relied on the services of provincial police, as it does today.

Yet last year residents received their first bill for the regional force, for $6,699. It was paid with no questions asked. But this year the bill is for $43,489. "We have no police working in there at all," regional police chief Albert Shennan said in a (See Also Page 13) REYKJAVIK (CP) An appeals committee rejected today Bobby Fischer's protest against his loss of Thursday's second world championship chess game by forfeit.
