Tri blasted Quang is over for Eagleto bardment bom in heavy MIAMI BEACH (UPI)-Up to 3:40 p.m. Thursday!" Tom Eagleton was a happy-go-lucky delegate to the Democratic National Convention. Today he is the convention's nominee for vice president arid the fun times seem to be over. "You're kidding," the 42-year-old freshman senator from Missouri replied when Sen, George McGovern called his hotel room to say he wanted Tom to take second place on the party's presidential ticket. "I'm dead serious," McGovern replied.

"Let me hasten to say yes," Eagleton said, "before you change your mind' Earlier Eagleton had soaked up' the Florida sun around his hotel pool, in red and yellow trunks that revealed a stomach turning to paunch, possibly a product of the period when DhSr hi A Connally may get new job SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. (UPI (-President Nixon prepared to welcome his favorite Democrat, John B. Connally, from a round-the-world mission today and give him a "very new government job. The President disclosed in his last news conference two. weeks ago that he had another job in mind for the former Treasury secretary and Texas governor, wjio returned Tuesday from a 35-day tour that took him to 15 nations for conference's with foreign leaders.

The President did not not immediately disclose details of the new assignment, but it probably, will be a job that will keep Connally in the public eye. He was the only Democrat in the, cabinet until his resignation last May and is highly regarded by the President for his persuasive powers. Connally left on his tour of Latin America, Asia and Europe on June 6 as a Farenthold, Mike Gravel and Endicott Peabody and stray ballots to a total of 71 other-prospects from Martha Mitchell to Archie Bunker. But that was only in fun, and after giving Eagleton 1,741.81 votesfar more than enough they made him their unanimous choice. "I know I'm 'Tom Eagleton told newsmen.

"I know I'm not a household word. It's going to take a lot of work on my part." Exactly how he came to be chosen to rim for vice president probably won't be known until Teddy White writes his quadrennial book about the making of the president. But enough leaked out of McGovern's penthouse suite to establish that Eagleton was considerably less than a quick, easy pick. McGovern staffers and outside advisers, including actress Shirley MacLaine, attention but there is no problem," he said. The committee declined to take action against schools in the San Francisco Bay area which used what Ragle called teaching techniques on sexual subjects.

LOMPOC THEATRE RE.9-U17 Board launches program to protect sex classes BANGED UP Tri, this South resting well. Troops in drive ori IRA stronghold r. SACRAMENTO (UPI) -Reacting to complaints of "reprehensible" homosexual teachings, the state Board of Education launched a modest, low-key campaign designed to prevent sexual perversion from seeping into California's sex education classes. The board's policy committee Thursday asked its staff to draft new, stricter guidelines for sex education studies for presentation at the board's next meeting in San Diego Sept. 14-15.

Led by Eugene Ragle of Roseville, the committee agreed the regulations should include: A requirement that teachers in the field of family life and sex education be given special training "to maintain the highest possible quality of instruction in this area. -A prohibition or wonderland's most amazing childhood DlfiTS ALL NEW ALL IIVE! NEVER ANYWHERE Presold in 05V Blowing. BELFAST (UPI)-Hundreds of British troops today occupied a farmer Protestant housing estate which they seized, from the Irish Republican Army" in their first concerted drive against an IRA stronghold. The battle for the area climaxed a 26-hour period ending early today in which five soldiers and three civilians died in one of the worst surges of killings in' Northern Ireland since the IRA ended its two-week cease-fire Sunday. The army, revising earlier figures, said the deaths brought the fatality toll in almost three years of violence in Northern Ireland to 431, including 109 soldiers, 299 civilians and 23 policemen.

An army spokesman said as a young lawyer het represented his home town firm "of Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis. Other Missouri delegates bunted Tom about his construction. "That is chest," he proclaimed, slapping himself in the gut. Eagleton was no more surprised than about 99 per cent of all the other Democrats when the party's presidential nominee tapped him for the vice presidential role.

Gov. Jimmy Carter of Georgia, when informed of the choice, said the name was a new one to him. Others were more diplomatic. And unlike other conventions, where the No. 2' spot is awarded by acclamation to the man picked by the head of the ticket, delegates roll-called it for almost two hours, piling, up respectable votes for declared opponents Frances "Sissy." limitation of using "outside resource people" such as homosexuals, and overly graphic films in classrooms.

A recommendation that citizens committees be created around the state to study sex education practices in local districts. Ragle also asked the board's staff to study the "very real possibility" that there is a connection between the increase in the "quantity of sex education" in California and the increase of venereal disease and abortions among the young. When the committee embarked on its sex education probe last month, Ragle invited citizens to tell him about "excesses" in the state's sex' education programs. 1 But he said Thursday the response had "We have to assume that no one is paying attention or that everyone is paying Road-Requests the state Public Works Department to award two major contracts during the next two fiscal years to complete the Simi Valley-San Fernando Valley Freeway.

The Provisionals announced an end to their cease-fire and entrenched themselves in the Lenadoon area after troops fired rubber bullets at a Roman Catholic crowd trying to move Catholics into empty houses on the estate Sunday.

In death as in life, Frasier inspired unusual tributes. A team of more than a dozen doctors planned to conduct an autopsy today in an attempt to determine the source of the astonishing virility given his advanced years and debilitated physical state-that made Frasier famous. The team was headed by a urological specialist, Dr. Anthony W. Orlandella.

"We hope that our findings will benefit medical and veterinary science," the urologist said. Frasier will be laid to rest Saturday morning on a grassy knoll overlooking the sunny glade at Lion Country Safari where his reproductive prowess drew visitors by the thousands.

world chess championship was in doubt. The 29-year-pld American challenger failed to show for his second game against titleholder Boris Spassky of Russia to protest television cameras in the hall where they are playing. Referee Lothar Schmid awarded the game to Spassky, putting the Russian ahead two games to zero. Fischer challenged Schmid's ruling and the matter went to a committee today made up of Schmid, his deputy, representatives for the two players and the organizers. There appeared to be little chance the committee would reverse the ruling.

The big question remained one that has haunted the championship almost from the beginning: Would Fischer walk Icelandic grandmaster Fridrik Olafsson, an old friend of Fischer, managed to get into the suite of rooms where the challenger is staying in a downtown hotel.
