PAGE SIXTEEN EVENING HERALD OF SHENANDOAH ASHLAND MAHANOY JULY 10, 1972 SHEPPTON AREA NEWS McGovern confident of early victory perhaps to denounce the platform's "asinine" endorsement of compulsory school busing as a useful tool toward integration. Humphrey, meantime, seemed to want to serve as the Democrats' peacemaker if he is denied the hopeful of diverting the disunity which dogged his 1968 campaign against President Nixon. Muskie Pivotal Aides promised a quick decision after Muskie's scheduled "solidarity meeting" this with his estimated 200-plus delegates. In the same flat, dry prairie voice with which he announced his candidacy 18 months ago when he was unknown to most Americans McGovern expressed boundless confidence of reaching his goal. He reflected none of the -tensions swirling around him in this steamy resort strip, trapped in its own traffic.

He claimed enough support in tonight's voting to reverse the Credentials Committee vote which took from him 151 of the 271 delgates won June 6 in California's winner-take-all primary. He also sought an Illinois compromise which would put Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley in a delegate's seat with one half a vote and a more kindly feeling toward McGovern. With that accomplished, McGovern's delegates counters said, he would have 1,541.5 votes Wednesday night at the nominating session 32.5 more than necessary. A parliamentary ruling Sunday from Lawrence F.

O'Brien, the party chairman, strengthened McGovern's hand. O'Brien decreed that all dele-4 gates except those whose right to vote is under challenge could ballot on whether to seat a challenged delegation. Even if he loses all challen Muskie for Veep? Ohio, Gov. John Gilligan, a red-haired liberal, breakfasted Sunday with Muskie, whom he had supported originally, and urged him to support McGovern in the California issue. Later he dangled the vice presidential nomination before Muskie as a lure, but Muskie said he wasn't very interested.

The Humphrey camp said a convention majority of 1,509 votes should be necessary to settle all disputes. Thev vowed to fight O'Brien's ruling in the South Carolina challenge, the first and crucial vote which could cast the decisive pattern for the entire convention. Adding to McGovern's optimism was latent support from delegates who would vote for him on a second or third ballot but were bound by state law or state convention to vote for others on early ballots. Such committments did not bind them on procedural issues such as the California credentials fight. But the Humphrey camp said even a California win would not ensure McGovern the nomination.

They said he lacked the 1,509 votes for a first-ballot triumph and insisted his support would erode on the second and subsequent ballots, with Humphrey gaining strength as McGovern waned. Obstacles still faced McGovern. One of them was an attempt by blacks to unite all 458 black delegates as a bloc, perhaps supporting Rep. Shirley death" that McGovern's nomination would spell party ruin everywhere. "Whenever three Democrats get together they are talking about losing the Senate and the House" if McGovern wins, Jackson said.

Jackson Steadfast He denied interest in the second spot on a McGovern ticket. "I could not run on the same tcket," he said, because "my views are so far apart (from McGovern's)." He said he finds McGovern's proposed slash in defense spending appalling. Muskie's vice presidential disclaimer was far softer. "A case would have to be made to. overcome my own personal preferences (against again accepting his party's vice presidential nomination)," he said.

McGovern talked Veep, too. He told television interviewers the that his inclination if nominated would be "to present one name, perhaps two or three" for a choice by the convention. He said he would telephone Kennedy at once if nominated, implying he would offer him what politicians call "first refusal." He said he has considered offering the second spot io a nonpolitician, he had talked it over with Leonard Woodcock, the president of the United Auto Workers and an early Muski! backer.

McGovern invaded the camps of his enemies today, seeking a key victory at tonight's opening session of the Democratic National Convention which could make his nomination almost certain and almost bloodless.

His rivals still lacked and still sought the cohesion necessary for an effective stop-McGovern coalition in Wednesday's presidential balloting. They also lacked "a unity candidate all could agree upon, and no new name surfaced. Edward M. Kennedy's wife Joan, here to help raise money for the party, said Kennedy's decision neither to seek nor accept the nomination was "final."

Muskie, once the front-runner, took on kingmaker powers at this least orthodox 36th quadrennial assembly of disarrayed Democrats.

York on the Humphrey Maneuvers Sensing an opportunity there, Humphrey considered releasing his own black delegates to give momentum to an all-black bloc. He figured this would then deny McGovern the black support he needed for a first ballot nomination.

Disunity also was evident in the endorsement of McGovern Sunday by Rep.

Ronald V. Dellums of California, a black from Berkeley. He had been a Chisholm supporter, though not a delegate. He denounced the stop-McGovern movement as "a cynical effort to stop the coalition of the heretofore powerless." George C.

Hand Consider this deal played in a team of four championship. South was the renowned Australian star, Tim Seres, who optimistically leaped to four hearts after West's preemptive two spade bid had been passed around to him. West led the queen of spades and Seres made the extraordinary play of a low spade from dummy! East discarded a club and then ruffed dummy's king of spades when West continued with the jack at trick two. East did as well as he could when he shifted to a diamond, but Seres was now in full command. He won the diamond return with the ace, drew three rounds of trumps, and finessed the nine of spades.

After discarding his diamond loser on the ace of spades, Seres led a club to the king and thus brought home the contract. The only tricks he lost were two spades and a club. The contract would have failed had Seres made the instinctive play of the king of spades from dummy at trick one. East would ruff and return a diamond, and declarer would eventually lose four tricks consisting of the opening spade ruff, a club, a diamond and another spade. take Now it's the chairs pose chess problem "My delegation is less controllable than those of any other candidate," Muskie says of his ability to give or deny McGovern votes.

"I have delegates who lean toward Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey and delegates who lean toward Sen. McGovern. "I cannot presume that I can lead them all in one direction or another," he added.

"I speak for myself." The kind of a lift Muskie could provide has in other years led to rewards, including the vice presidential nomination. But Muskie seems less than eager to run a second time as second man and McGovern has given no indication that Muskie is on his list of possibilities. Despite the tarnish of primary defeats, Muskie has a reservoir of support among many key people, including governors, who are waiting for him to take the lead in the credentials fight a potential bloodletting which could make the nomination worthless. Among those pressuring Muskie to side with McGovern on the California credentials challenge were Govs. John Gilligan of Ohio and Frank Licht of Rhode Island.

He claimed well over twice as many delegates as his nearest rival, Hubert H. Humphrey. LTI Delegate Tallies count, reflecting McGovern's loss of 151 California votes and his Illinois loss, showed him with 1,315.95 votes plus 42 leaning his way, putting him 152.05 of the nomination. The UPI tabulation gave Humphrey 531.55, 58 leaning, the uncommitted bloc numbered 311.4.

McGovern, well aware that victory on tonight's procedural votes over the ground rules of the convention could yield victory Wednesday, wooed delegates for support in that crucial roll call. He scheduled visits to the big and largely unfriendly delegations from Ohio, where Humphrey is strongest; and Texas, where George C. Wallace held the lion's share of delegates. Texas rancher Dolph Briscoe, who beat a liberal to win his party's gubernatorial nomination, was thought to be leaning toward Humphrey. "I came here uncommitted," he said, "and I'm still uncommitted." McGovern made a "fair play" pitch, arguing that taking California delegates away from him after all candidates had agreed to the winner-take-all rules would be unjust.

he backs McGovern's claim to 271 delegate votes from California, or whether he will merge into the "stop McGovern" movement. Muskie's decision could be pivotal for McGovern's chances of winning the nomination. The vote is expected to be extremely close, and Muskie might be able to swing 200-300 votes. paying $5 each to be on hand Tuesday. Gudmundur Arnlaugsson, deputy referee of the match, spent all day Sunday polishing off the fine details.

He tested several chess boards and finally settled for one made in Iceland specially for the match. It has been put together from Icelandic stones. Arnlaugsson, who had to take over when the chief referee Lothar Schmid of Germany flew home Saturday, also has a choice of five or six different chess sets of various sizes.

McGovern's 'Loyalty Pledge' He announced he found acceptable a "loyalty pledge" from McGovern, even though McGovern kept alive his threat to bolt the convention if he is denied success by what he considered illegitimate means. But at the same time Humphrey sent dozens of young supporters into convention hotels to slip 30,000 mimeographed leaflets under the doors of sleeping delegates.

The literature denounced McGovern's "attempt to bully you for your votes" with a threat to stalk out of a convention he found unfair. He criticized McGovern's 1948 endorsement of Henry A. Wallace on the Progressive party tocket endorsement McGovern renounced later that year. No conciliatory talk came from hawkish Sen. Henry M.

Jackson of Washington state, another candidate. He didn't budge from his warnings that Democrats are "scared to 271 delegates from California and Mayor Richard J. Daley's 59 from Chicago. Muskie was noncommittal, promising only a decision today. Gilligan was reported as encouraged.

Muskie is under intense pressure. Humphrey called him "solid as a rock" against McGovern on the credentials fight. McGovern called him two days ago and asked that he meditate on the fairness of taking away votes after California's winner-take-all primary. Should Muskie throw his influence and the votes of his delegates behind McGovern's California delegation, it could be the edge the South Dakota senator needs to win that critical battle. At the same time, should Muskie finally decide against McGovern, the decision could deny McGovern 151 of California's 271 votes.

It is a strange position for Muskie. Only four months ago he was the front-runner and an almost prohibitive favorite for the nomination, and McGovern was a little-known, lightly-regarded fringe candidate from the Democratic left.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) The Boris Spassky-Bobby Fischer world chess match can begin Fischer's favorite chair has arrived. The swivel chair in metal and black leather was flown from New York to Iceland and put on the stage in the Reykjavik chess hall Sunday. Spassky's Russian advisers arrived shortly after the much talked about chair and studied it suspiciously. Then they left without comment.

Now the Icelandic organizers face a new problem: Where to find a similar chair in Iceland? "It would look better if both Spassky and Fischer had the same chairs," said Gudmundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic Chess Federation. Fischer took one look at the dozen different chairs the Icelanders had assembled from Reykjavik's furniture stores the other day, sat down in some of them and then gave his verdict: "Fly in my own chair." Spassky, the 35-year-old world champion, did not seem to worry much about details of the $250,000 match. Before leaving for a salmon fishing tour of northern Iceland the defending champion said, "I am not going to argue about chairs, chess boards and sets. I will leave that to Bobby. It makes no difference to me." After lengthy and dramatic preludes, both Fischer and Spassky appeared ready to start the first of their 24 games Tuesday.

"Bobby is relaxed and ready. We will play Tuesday unless Spassky is ill," said Fred Cramer, vice president of the U.S. Chess Federation.
