The Russian titleholder launched his counterattack yesterday with a stern protest, some sharp criticism, a walkout and a demand for a two-day postponement of the start of the match with American pied. The government flag was raised during the afternoon at Mai Linh, a district headquarters 1.2 miles southeast of Quang Tri but considered within the city limits.

Mai Linh and Hai Lang, six miles southeast of Quang Tri, were the lirst of 11 towns that fell during the Ihree-month-old enemy offensive to be recaptured by government forces. Associated Press correspondent Dennis Necld reported that South Vietnamese marines on the eastern flank of the government drive were within four miles of the city. Their officers predicted they could be in Quang Tri in a day if ordered. Elements of (he airborne troops moving up Highway 1 toward Quang Tri encountered the first bunkers in what was believed to be a heavy line of fortifications around the eily.

U.S. warplanes in several waves bombed and strafed civilian areas in Hanoi and on its outskirts at noon yesterday and that two F4 Phantom fighter-bombers were shot down. Radio Hanoi said many persons were killed and injured and hundreds of homes were destroyed and damaged. The U.S. Command said it had no plane losses to report for yesterday.

It has been a long-standing policy of the command to withhold announcement of aircraft losses until search and rescue operations are completed. The command announced in a report delayed by search and rescue operations that Soviet-built M1G interceptors downed two Air Force F4 Phantoms on June 27 southwest of Hanoi. Two crewmen were rescued and two are missing, the eomamnd said. The loss raised to 60 the number of U.S. planes downed by MIGs during the war, and American forces have downed M9 MIGs, the command said.

The command said the mistaken attack occurred five miles southeast of Quang Tri City. Spokesmen said they had no other do-lails, including the type of aircraft or what type ordnance was dropped. Earlier reports said the marines were hit with bombs.

The command said the accident was under investigation.

Chief Judge David E. Bazelon md circuit Judges Charles Fahy and George E. MacKinnon heard more than four hours of arguments in an unusual July 4 session. Not until early evening did they say that there would be no ruling until today. BOTH DEC1SONS of the Credentials Committee were upheld in federal district court Monday by Judge George H.

Hart Jr. However the court rules, the convention itself will have the final decision as to whether to seat the Daley delegation nnd whether to divide the California delegation or award it all to McGovern. Rut the court decisions in both cases will undoubtedly carry considerable weight with many of the Democratic delegates when they are voting their choice in the convention next week. The California case, if the committee's dicision is sustained by the court and the convention, could cost McGovern enough to deny him nomination on the first ballot and stall his drive beyond that point. In the Chicago decision, however, he picked up 40 or 50 delegates.

Arguing to return the disputed California delegates to McGovern, Joseph L.

But the compromise is not ready. A six-man conference committee, including three lawmakers from each chamber, was appointed last Saturday to work out a budget proposal that would pass both houses. Even though Commonwealth operations have been unfunded since midnight Friday, the committee has yet to meet. Its first session was to take place this morning, shortly before the legislature reconvenes.

The committee's formation followed an overwhelming House vote of 135-50 against a $3,185 billion general appro-, priations bill that Democrats had pushed through the senate. The Senate, over unanimous Republican objections, had restored most of $150 million in budget cuts that were voted through the week before by a House coalition of upstate Democrats and Republicans. The legislature's failure to enact a budget has already delayed welfare payments, made creditors doing business with the Commonwealth wait longer for their payments and forced most state employes to work for free. Fjveryone will be paid what he's owed when a budget is passed by the legislature and signed by Gov. Shapp.

But in the meantime, the state cannot legally draw any money from the Treasury. Humphrey Kclaxin IJcforc Try WAVERLY, Minn. (AP)-Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey relaxed at his lakeside home in this tiny rural community yesterday, taking newsmen for rides on his pontoon boat and a JOO-horsepower outboard runabout.

The Minnesota senator, resting for next week's Democratic presidential nomination battle, planned to attend a Humphrey family reunion at the Way-zata home of his daughter Nancy Solom-onson and her husband Bruce. Bobby Fischer. Fischer slept through it all. He had arrived in the morning from New York and went straight, to hed to rest up for the first game, set for 5 p. m.

When Fischer woke up he found that the title series was put off until Thursday at the earliest. It was to have begun last Sunday. Summing up the day, Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation, said: "When Spassky is here Fischer doesn't come. As soon as Fischer comes, Spassky runs away." The Russians turned up in force at noon for what was to be a drawing of lots to decide who would play white and have the first move in the opener. They refused to draw with Fischer's second, a Roman Catholic priest, the Rev.

William Lombardy, and read a statement calling Fischer's delaying holdout intolerable. They protested Euwe's decision to tolerate it. When Fischer failed to appear Sunday as he should have, Euwe allowed him until noon yesterday to show up in Reykjavik or forfeit his shot at Spassky. Fischer's refusal to come by Sunday, was based on a dispute with the organizers over money. The argument was settled Monday when British financier James Slater offered to sweeten an already record pot with a donation of 50.000 British pounds about $130,000.

Fischer said he would play. The Russians said yesterday that Fischer had violated the rules of the match. They wanted an apology. Euwe reported they had some harsh words for him as well.

The forecast for the Pittsburgh area today is rain and cooler temperatures. The expected high is in the mid 70s with a low tonight in the low 50s.

Most of the area from Montana and the Texas Panhandle to the North Atlantic states recorded midafternoon high temperatures in the 60s, while readings in the 50s were common in the north and central Rockies. The National Weather Service said temperatures overnight were expected (o dip to near record lows in some parts of the Midwest, with frost possible in sections of Wisconsin.

At least 20 persons died in holiday weekend accidents in Pennsylvania, including 15 in highway mishaps and five who drowned.

PUBLIC ATTITUDE CHANCINC Draft Evaders Shown I.ulhf ran okay massive overhaul North, Snilh Korea establish 'hot line' Policing the Police, last of three article The McGovern Mjlh, last of two article By KAROLYN SCHUSTER, Poil-Gmtttl Stall Wrilrr Four years ago, the alternatives for a qualified young man faced with an induction notice appeared riepressingly clear and concise: two years in war, five years in jail, or permanent exile Irom the States.

In the months since, an increasing number of young men, have exercised the option of "dodging the draft," often with the tacit approval of their parents. At the same time, the number of youths indicted in Western Pennsylvania for refusing military induction has decreased, the length of their jail terms has shrunk, and the Selective Service has emerged as a frontier area of criminal law. Western Pennsylvania's sentencing in Selectiv Service cases has moved a long way toward leniency since 1065 when three offenders got four-year jail terms for failing to report for conscientious objectors' civilian work. IN 1968 ALL YOUTHS convicted in Pittsburgh of Selective Service felonies served at least three years in jail. The next year only one offender was ordered to spend more than four months in jail.

''It's a perfect example of the effect of a change in public sentiment." says Pittsburgh attorney Michael Hahalyak. who has defended draft resistors in Federal Court here. "I think we all expect judges to reflect (he will of the community to some degree. And today's community jusf doesn't want to send these young men off to jail for five years."
