firm as he talked and listened to the demonstrators for 30 minutes "'DON'T YOU realize that most people here are for you" shouted a young man "We love you but you are losing your credibility The rest was drowned out by a girl yelling "That's not true" Responding to questions shouted by the demonstrators McGovern reaffirmed his support for amnesty for those who refused to fight in Vietnam and his opposition to legalizing marijuana Cheered when he arrived and often as he spoke McGovern was booed loudly when he said he would not sign a proposal calling for life imprisonment for any police officer who murders a black Mexican-American or other minority group person "I don't have any doubt that within 90 days of my inaugu- ration every American troop and every American soldier will be home and that's a pledge I make" he said Casually dressed in an open- sports shirt Mc- Govern was grim and firm as he talked and listened to the demonstrators for 30 minutes "'DON'T YOU realize that

from the board was shut off Schmid said he couldn't order the camera rem ov Fischer stayed away for 30 minutes then came back and resumed play AFTER SPASSKY'S 56th move Fischer resigned He reached over and stopped the clock after 63 minutes had elapsed offered Spassky his hand folded his scorecard and walked out He paused once to wave to the audience which was applauding Spassky Whitefaced Fischer left the hall by the stage door and hurried to a waiting car From the car he spotted John Collin a paraplegic who taught him the game Collins was in a wheelchair and Fischer rolled down the car window and said: "I'm sorry It will settle down" When the play resumed Wednesday Spassky had his king a bishop that controlled four times and drawn twice Today he plays the white pieces which

Wednesday night FISCHER STAGED a 30- minute walkout shortly after the play began Wednesday complaining that a movie camera 150 feet away was making him nervous The camera was hardly visible in the dimness outside the lighted players' circle and it could not be heard by Fischer but aides said the knowledge of its presence unnerved him Cihef referee Lothar Schmid of West Germany who makes the decisions on all contested points in connection with the match told Fischer during his walkout there was nothing he could do about the camera Film and television rights for the match have been sold to an American promoter and Fischer and Spasskv are to get a share of the proceeds estimated at a minimum of $27500 each "It's up to Lothar Schmid whether Bobby plays" one of Fischer's advisers said today With a maximum of 23 more games to be played Robert Byrn the second-ranking US grandmaster said Fischer's loss "isn't necessarily all that significant Either of these players can come back and win" A victory yields one point a draw half a point and after Wednesday's match Spassky needed 11 more points in the 24-game series to retain his title FISCHER NEEDS 121i points to end the 24-year

Service agents who earlier in the day had arrested two men at the hotel for carrying concealed weapons said they had opposed McGovern's decision to meet the crowd The scene outside Convention Hall was much as it had been other nights of the convention: a phalanx of riot-equipped police protesters with loudspeakers on the other side of a sixfoot fence "Jesus people" and ice cream vendors wandering
