(UPIl -An Iowa State University expert iaI3 Thursday current govern -nent programs for solving non-arm economic problems in ru-al communities apparently will all short of their objectives. Earl D. Heady, a rural development director for Iowa State University, spoke at a inference at Purdue University rural economy. "It is not clear now or if hese programs can add much ndustrial and other economic ictivity to generate income and mployment opportunities in typ-cal rural communities," Heady aid.

He listed these programs as 'a new cities program for popu-ation redistribution, environ-nental improvement through ioil Conservation Service activi-ies, improved sanitation and ervice through the a fome Administration, and fed-ral revenue sharing." "These programs can improve he quality of life of the occu- pationally fixed, immobile order persons and highly underemployed females and others of rural areas." he said. "But job opportunities and per costs of local services will continue their existing trends as large family farms continue to absorb neighboring units to become super family farms." "To view the problem only as one of industrialization would result in efforts bringing gains mainly to favored larger towns and ignoring the indirect a growing costs of unordered and narrowly defined development on purely rural communities." he said. "Over the long run. a whole new settlement pattern will be necessary, involving fewer ma jor towns or commercial centers, roads and service sectors." he said. "These consolidations will require "writing off the capital values of many private and public installations.

It is likely that transitions to the new patterns and investments will require public subsidies." cott Peabody and throwing stray ballots to a total of 71 prospects from Martha Mitchell an to Archie Bunker. But that was only in fun, and after giving Eagleton 1.741.81 votes far more than enough they made him their unanimous choice. "I know I'm 'Tom Eagleton told newsmen. 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 run 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 McGoyern's penthouse suite to establish 'that Eagleton was considerably less than a quick, easy pick. Huddles Start McGovern staffers and outside advisers, including actress Shirley MacLaine. started the first of a series of huddles at 9 a.m. with a list of 24 names. By 11:30 or so, with McGovern himself in and out of the talks, the list had been pared to II.

The eliminations went on into early aftern(X)n. At least three other senators were offered the role and said no. They were Edward Kennedy. Abraham Ribicoff and Walter Mondale. Aides to Gov.

But he recovered in plenty of time to whip together an appropriate speech signaling the start of the long campaign ahead.

His main pledge, he said, was to "restore the dignity of, the office of the vice presiden-' cy." which he promised would no longer be used as a platform for "cheap rhetorical attacks that divide our nation."

Mazwell said 17 items were unresolved, including salaries and a dispute over class sizes.

Dake said school board's "final offer" included an across-the-board 1.7 per cent salary increase. The teachers rejected it. saying it did not keep up with increases in the cost of living.

The only time his voice became charged with emotion was when he mentioned his own 45,000 votes write-in victory in the March 7 New Hampshire primary. The vote was the largest of any write-in in the history of the primary. He charged that his victory and the President's tiH per cent showing in the primary were under-reported.

Today he is the convention's nominee for vice president and 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 as a young lawyer he represented his home town firm of Anheuser-Busch in St.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) -Bobby Fischer stayed in bed. So once again the world chess championship was in doubt. The 29-year-old 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 out? Icelandic Frid-rik Olafsson. an old friend of Fischer, managed to get into the suite of rooms where the challenger is staying in a downtown hotel. "He talked to me about anything else but the match." Olafsson said. "He lost interest in it six months ago." Fischer dropped the first of the possible 24 games to Spassky, who needs 12 points a win counts one point, a draw one-half point to retain his title.

Time for the second game came and went Thursday and Fischer did hot arrive. Aides said SOUTH BEND. Ind. (UPIl An impasse in contract nego-tions has been reached by the South Bend school board and the city's teacher organization, both sides said Thursday. H.

Agnew said "However. it is Middle America and not Media Ameri ca that makes the crucial decision on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November every fourth year." Agnew said that liberal commentators and reporters were "a relatively limited group" and added "we might hope that the nation's regional and local media will, within their capabilities, also work to redress that imblance." The vice president's criticism of the reporters who "by their own decision, have emerged as he stayed in bed to protest the television cameras. At the appointed time. 5 p.m., Spassky was in the hall. Promptly at 5, Schmid started the time clock.

There were 60 minutes of hushed silence while everybody waited for Fischer. Andrew Davis, one of Fischer's lawyers in New York, put through a call at 5:30 p.m. when there was still .10 minutes till Fischer's deadline to Richard C. Stein, lawyer for the owner of the film rights and asked Stein to remove all cameras for Thursday's game and give Davis time to fly to Iceland and discuss the matter in detail. Stein said he agreed and even made out a written agreement backstage in the hall.

Fischer was told via telephone that such an agreement existed, but the American did not respond. Stein said. Father William Iombardy. Fischer's ollieal second and former world junior chess champion, met newsmen who trid to get into Fischer's hotel suite after the game and told them "the situation is very serious."
