Important Decisions Face Wallace I A I BEACH, Fla. A For George Corlcy Wallace, il is the toughesl of times. Confined lo a wheel chair, his war chest sagging, and facing political unrest at home, Wai lace now must make a myriad of decisions as the Democratic National Convention draws to a close. Although received warmly at the convention, Wallace's desires again were icjcclcd by the dclcgalefand platform writers. The Alabama governor refusing to a refuge with Republicans could undertake another third-party presidential campaign.

Or, if the Democrats experience a shattering November defeat as he predicts they will, he may try lo fit tho pieces together into a more conservative party in 1970. Third Party Possibility Wallace's campaign man- Charles S. Snider, said Wednesday Ihe possibility of another third-party race which gave Wallace five states in 1908 was "gelling stronger and stronger every minute." But other spokesman at the governor's headquarters tried to soft-pedal such talk, sayins no plans have been made a campaign. Snider said he was speaking for the governor, who tried in vain to gel the Democratic nomination and to rewrite Iho parly platform on school busing and other major issues. In addition lo his physical handicap, another serious factor for the crippled governor is money.

Snider says the Wallace campaign already owes $250,000 and political analysts say il will he more difficult lo raise funds for a third-parly venture. Manager Confident The campaign a a dis agreed. He said he is confident that the people who share Wallace's philosophy will raise the money lo pay off the existing (Continued on I'aKe 15) extension through North Troy, he renovation of Hoosick Street, or a highway in North Greenbush to access lo the South Mall in Albany.

The fourth I million from iu well-heeled McGovern Huddles With Advisers MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) Sen. George McGovern, winner the Democratic presidential nomination, huddled Thursday with a score ot advisers over i list of possible running males. The South Dakota senator, whose rise from political obscurity climaxed with a first- ballot victory Wednesday night, also summoned as many governors as he could muster lo bolster a show of unity at windup session of the National Convention. Frank Mankicwici, national political director for McGovern, said he expected the choice of a vice-presidential candidate to he made shortly.

But an hour after Mankiewicz gave this word lo newsmen surrounding McGovern's headquarters there was no word on who would lake the spot spurned earlier "for very real personal reasons" by Sen. ward Kennedy of Massachusetts. Two-Hour Meeting The roster of names was compiled, during a two-hour meeting by McGovern aides. No one outside the McGovern camp attended. Similarly, only McGoverri staffers--21 in all--sat down with the senator in his 17th- floor hotel suite to go over the list and settle on a final choice.
