In his two appearances Friday, at Montgomery, Ala. where he reclaimed gubernatorial powers lost during his 53-day absence since an attempt on his life, Wallace showed the price he had paid.

He looked thin and weak. His face was drawn and strained. His voice carried the same familiar inflections and what he said was familiar, the waist down and weak and pale from his hospitalization, planned no activities today except a brief appearance as host at a party for all convention delegates.

Three doctors and four nurses were kept on standby in a MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) Sen. Ger ge McGovern's presidential challengers, buoyed by a Supreme Court ruling that tossed the California credentials case before next weeks Democratic National Convention, worked today to chip away at the front-running South Dakota senators massive delegate lead. On the scene ahead of McGovern to meet with delegates in this warm resort center were Sens. Hubert H.

Humphrey, Edmund S. Muskie, Henry M. Jackson, and Rep. Wilbur D. Mills.

They hailed the high tribunals 6-3 ruling Friday night. It stopped a lower court from restoring 151 disputed California delegates to McGovern. Preparing to fly here today to take personal charge of his quest for the Democratic pres- idential nomination, McGovern said in Washington he was confident the American sense of fair play will win out in Miami and give him back the California delegates. His political operatives, who spent much of the day planning for the floor fight expected Monday night on the California credentials case, said they expected to win by at least 50 votes in a showdown that- could have a decisive impact on the fight for the nomination itself. The nomination is Monday night Its not Wednesday night, commented Harold Himmelman, a Cleveland lawyer who is a McGovern political aide.

An afternoon caucus of Democratic governors provided one forum for the presidential hopefuls to seek delegates. A number of the state executives head blocs of uncommitted delegates. If McGovern wins the California credentials fight, he would be about 50 votes away from winning the nomination, according to a tally by The Associated Press. If he loses, he would be more than 200 votes short. The senators strategists count on a ruling, which party officials have indicated is likely, permitting the 120 California McGovern delegates who arent being challenged to vote on seating the rest of the delegation.

The McGovern forces also hope for a second ruling that would require a majority of those delegates voting, rather than of the full convention, to decide the seating issue. In its ruling, the Supreme Court in effect reinstated the decision by the conventions Credentials Committee, which voted 72 to 66 to divide the 271 California delegates proportionately according to votes in the June 6 primary, rather than following the state law giving them all to the winner, McGovern.

Anti-Hijack Measures Extended To All Flights MIAMI BEACH (UPI) -George C. Wallace secluded himself in the presidential suite of a plush hotel today and pondered whether he had the physical stamina or the political muscle to turn the Democratic party away from a course he found distasteful, Aides scrubbed plans for his participation Sunday on three television panel shows.

They said an appearance before the Democratic National Convention also remained in doubt. Wallace, still paralyzed from Passengers Approve Of Search SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -I dont mind at all, said Jane Burnside as an agent for Pacific Southwest Airways rummaged through her bag of clothing. I think there should be some check. Carrying out President Nixons order to commuter airlines for stricter antihijacking measures because of two hijackings of Pacific Southwest Airlines planes in two days, the agent pulled keys, makeup and purse from the 23-year-dld Menlo Park womans handbag. Then, satisfied, he allowed her to board the plane for Sacramento.

Her reaction was typical of the passengers who stood in long lines Friday at San Francisco International Airport, scene of several hijackings, while their hand-earned luggage was searched. Thomas Marks, Arbuckle, said he and his wife checked in two hours before departure time so United Air Lines would have plenty of time to screen them. It appeared however that airlines would have to search ail baggage carried on the plane, apparently including womens purses. Passengers themselves would have to be screened by one or more methods including passing through a metaldetecting device, comparison Storm, Ship Race To Crash Victims providence to lead and guide. President Lee said.

But there is a great promise also given, in which the Lord said that He would reign in the midst of His saints. The most powerful weapon in the world today is the teaching of the Savior to combat the wickedness of the world, President Lee said. President N. Eldon Tanner, newly appointed first counselor in the First Presidency, told newsmen that it is a great honor to be called as a counselor to the president of the church. This is the third president he has served as a counselor, he added.

I have great love and confidence and a bond of brotherhood for President Lee, and hope I can serve him and the Lord in an acceptable way, President Tanner said. President Marion G. Romney, newly -named second counselor, said, This is a new experience for mo, and I dont have much to say. I have several witnesses that this is the true church and kingdom of God, and I know that President Lee and President Tanner are true men of God. I will do afi I can.

President Lee explained that in the church, men are caUed of God, by prophecy and the laying on of hands and such was the case in his selection of his two counselors.

Airlines which had been allowed to spot-check 10 per cent of passengers must now extend such measures to everyone boarding their planes, the Western White House said. He explained that it was not what was planned, nor resolutions about the future that would measure the new First Presidency, but what we do. In that regard, he added, We will lean on spiritual guidance.

It may distract Mm. Fischer could take a lesson from King Valdemar, in the year 1157. The king concentrated so hard on his chess game that when Canute gave him a big kiss, he didnt even lock up from the board. It took a troop of enemy soldiers rushing into the room to get his attention. The king lept up to fight.

MATCH IN DOUBT UNTIL LAST MINUTE NEW YORK (API The insulted egos and white-knuckled tensions before the Fischer-Spassky chess match may seem to be a blazing battle, but pale beside the tales of blood-thirsty games in Medieval Iceland.

Chess boards in the 12th and 13th centuries were often the center of treachery, revenge, intrigue and murder, according to sagas of the time.
