2 The Herald-News, Tuesday, July 11,1972 Tri Quang Viets ringin. Protestants threaten offensive BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) Militant Protestants threatened early today to take the offensive in Northern Ireland as gun battles and bomb explo- sions rocked the province. The Protestant Ulster Defense Association, which claims it can put 40,000 armed men into the field, said if the British do not crush the Roman Catholic guerrillas of the Irish Republican Army; the association will take the offensive against the IRA and do its "level best to "They are in well-prepared bunkers," he said. "They've been there for two months and they've used their time judiciously." "You can put 105 and even 155 artillery on those bunkers and you'll only give them a headache." Dickenson said he had seen 500-pound bombs dropped within 20 yards of the North Vietnamese bunkers and they failed to hurt anyone inside. "It's fighting in cities," he said.

"It's dirty. It's rough, and it's different from anything we've had since the Tet offensive in 1968. It's no longer the quiet little rice-paddy war." Associated Press correspondent Dennis Neeld reported from the front that Dickenson told him North Vietnamese troops were well dug in in and around the Citadel, in the heart of Quang Tri City.

helicopters landed hundreds of South Vietnamese marines north of Quang Tri City today, putting Saigon forces on three sides of the enemy-held provincial capital. Field reports said the American helicopters ran into heavy antiaircraft fire, and at least two of them were shot down. But their crews were reported rescued. The U.S. Command said it had no additional information on the loss of the helicopters, which were from carriers off the coast.

The Marines were landed 2 miles north-northwest of the city, on the eastern side of the Thach Han River opposite the Quang Tri combat base. For the fifth successive day, entrenched North Vietnamese forces managed to stall the South Vietnamese drive to recapture the city lost 10 weeks ago. Tank-led North Vietnamese infantry-' men and South Vietnamese paratrooper and marines battled at four different points on the northeastern and southeast- em outskirts of Quang Tri City. The Saigon command reported that 104 North Vietnamese troops were killed and tanks destroyed, six of them in one battle, by U.S. naval gunfire and South Vietnamese artillery support.

Government losses were six men killed and 13 wounded, the Saigon command said. (Continued from Page 1) with her. She went with a group from the Hay den Planetarium in New York.

"The eclipse we're all looking forward to will occur on June 30, 1973," Professor Hamdan said. "That one will have a total eclipse time of 7.2 minutes, and will be visible from the Sahara Desert, where the weather should be perfect at that time of year." The period of eclipse offers unique opportunities for scientists at all levels, eliminate ana destroy it." The British government rushed 1,800 more troops into the province in prepara- tion for the traditionally explosive mer season of Protestant parades celebrating historic events in the centuries of Protestant-Catholic warfare in Northern. Ireland. The first parade is tomorrow. The reinforcements bring the garrison to 1,800 men, the biggest it has been In the three years of communal turmoil.

In the wake of the collapse Sunday night of the IRA cease-fire, army headquarters reported 232 shooting incidents in Belfast between 8 a.m. yesterday and 4:40 a.m. today. British troops were involved in 146 of the shootouts and claimed they killed or wounded 15 gunmen. Protestants and Catholics fought in the other clashes.

The hooded body of a murdered manjn his 20s was found near the center of Belfast, shot in the chest and head. He was from the Montclair State students who noted sun spots on the reflected Image produced by the telescope, to the leaders in the field. Professor Hamdan said some of the experiments performed during the eclipse included a test of an alternate to the theory of relativity, observations of the "corona," the ring around the sun visible only when the sun itself is obscured, and attempts to see the planet Vulcan, which scientists believe orbits somewhere between the planet Mercury and the sun, but which has never been seen. Besides the inopportunely timed clouds, the chief difficulty encountered at Montclair State was wind blowing erratically enough to cause problems in holding the telescope still so that the image could be seen on the reflector. Professor Hamdan and his group moved from the roof of the science building to a grassy area and finally to the student center terrace, where' they took shelter from the wind in an alcove protected on three sides.

The eclipse began at 3:32 p.m. and reached its height at 4:42 p.m. It ended at 5:45 p.m. The next total eclipse visible in the United States will be in the state of Washington on Feb. 26, The next one that will be visible from New Jersey will occur on April 8, 2024.

Then, speeding adjournment of the first of four scheduled sessions, the convention agreed to drop credentials cases affecting delegates from Michigan, Texas, Rhode Island, Washington, Connecticut and Oklahoma. On the South Carolina credentials vote, several groups of McGovern supporters switched their votes away from the women challengers at the last moment in order to make sure that a parliamentary a test of how many votes were needed on credentials cases would be delayed until Sports complex hearings open (Continued from Page 1) front-running South Dakotan the full 271 delegates he had won in the June 6 California primary. With addition of the 151 disputed California delegates, McGovern's committed first-ballot strength some 48 hours before presidential balloting begins tomorrow night reached 1,485.35 just 23.65 short of the 1,509 needed to win. A swing of uncommitted delegates is expected to put McGovern past that mark before the balloting starts.

The clear, 380-vote margin of the California challenge was accepted by the defeated Humphrey forces. "It was a great fight," said San Francisco Mayor Joseph L. Alioto. "I still think it is wrong for 44 per cent of the vote (McGovern's California percentage in an eight-candidate field) to have 100 per cent of the delegates. But the vote is in and we accept it," he added.

Before O'Brien could announce the vote, Norman Bie of Clearwater, rose to challenge the ground rules, forcing the second roll call of the fight. Even while the second vote was taking place, McGovern issued a statement from his Doral Beach Hotel headquarters a couple of miles up the beach, saying he was gratified but not surprised. He declared: "It would seem now that the nomination we have anticipated is within our grasp." The California showdown came midway through a dozen credentials challenges. Earlier, the convention had voted against adding more women to the South Carolina delegation and against replacing Wallace's Alabama delegtion with a rival group, loyal to the national party. The divided Democrats launched what promised to be another tumultuous and historic convention in a tightly guarded hall.

Outside, about 500 mostly white demonstrators pulled down a portion of chain-link fence before police, armed with billy clubs, stepped in to stop them. Minutes before, the Rev. Ralph David A a of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference promised that his "poor people" group would demonstrate peacefully until given 750 convention hall seats- by Democratic party officials. The long opening-night session began half an hour late at 8 p.m. with welcoming speeches by Sen.

When he ran from the bay area of the station, he was shot by one of the men, Mabee told police Mabee was found sitting on a curb next to the station about 1:05 a.m. by a coworker, Frank Munapo of North Bergen, who had been away for a few minutes to get coffee at a nearby diner.

The holdup men did not take any money from the station, police reported. Mabee also had "a few dollars" in his pocket when he was taken to the hospital. would be Sen. George McGovern. "He would be my personal choice as well," she added.

Democratic leaders in the district are hopeful the Meyner name will help beat Maraziti, but the candidate is not too sure it will help. "We have been out of politicis for a while, and many may have forgotten the name," she said. She noted she was not running on her husband's "coattails" because not too long ago, he lost by a two-to-one margin in this district last time he ran for state office." She said she will run her campaign by expressing her views on various subjects and then letting the voters choose between her position and Maraziti's. the details of the campaign will be worked out over the summer. She plans to spend the remaining time before the fall finishing her book, and getting the organization set up.

Mrs. Meyner began her political career on the campaign staff of her cousin, the late Adlai Stevenson. She has never run for office but noted that "previous political office holding does not necessarily make one the best representative of the people." In addition to getting on the tennis court as often as she can, Mrs. Meyner is active in civic and community affairs, such as the New Jersey Rehabilitation Commission, the board of directors of the Newark Museum, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra and the New Jersey Chapter of the United Nations Associa-tion. She and her husband have been married since January, 1957, when Meyner was serving his first term in Trenton.

Parsky, representing the architectural firm used by the Sports Authority.

At the conclusion of the hearings, the two agencies will decide whether the plans of the Sports and Exposition Au-t i comply with the legislature's mandate that the sports complex take into account the environmental balance. The State Supreme Court will make a judicial review of- any ecologicial determination by the two agencies conducting the hearings.

Several plaintiffs' have indicated they will submit the matter to the U.S. Supreme Court if the state rules in favor of the complex. 11 1G lua tutci With the 151 disputed California delegates unable to vote on their own case, the McGovern forces felt confident of attaining the 1,433 votes that O'Brien had ruled would be needed. In the end, even their last-minute optimistic prediction of 1,520 votes was exceeded. Frank Mankiewicz, McGovern's national political director, said more than 60 delegates, many of them Muskie supporters, had backed the bid to restore the 151 California McGovern delegates.

A dozen, led by Sen. Stevenson, were from Illinois. The switchover came despite Muskie's decision to join Humphrey in a last-ditch battle against the front-runner from South Dakota. Muskie made the announcement yesterday after McGovern spurned his efforts for a closed-door meeting of presidential contenders to seek a compromise on the California and Illinois credentials cases.

Last-minute adjustments were being made on the stage of Reykjavik's 2 sports hall.

For Fischer, it is a question of money and personal prestige, of proving his claim that he is the best in the world. The winner gets five-eighths of the $125,000 put up by the Icelandic Chess Federation, or $78,125, plus another $75,000 of the $120,000 provided by London investment banker James Slater to persuade Fischer to end his holdout last week.
