(P)-New York's primary election campaigning, W subdued by the slaying of Robert F. Kennedy, drew to a close yes- terday as supporters of Vice Pres- ident Hubert Humphrey and Sen. Eugene McCarthy vied quietly for the bulk of the 123 Democratic convention delegates at stake. Slates of delegates pledged to the late senator still will appear on the ballot today, and most say they hope to be elected as "supporters of the principles" for which Kennedy stood. On the Republican ticket, Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller has ignored a relatively minor challenge by adherents of Richard M. Nixon. They are contesting for only 11 of the 82 GOP delegates to be elected, and Rockefeller is guar- anteed the rest. NO PREDICTION Since Kennedy's assassination, what had been shaping up as a spirited three-way struggle for control of New York's Democratic delegation has been allowed to drift to a conclusion that no one seems willing to predict. Instead, action has centered on competition among three Demo- Press crats for the Senate nomination to oppose Republican incumbent Jacob K. Javits. In the first test of New York's new direct-primary law, replac- ing the old convention method of picking candidates for statewide office, Democrats will ballot di- rectly for their party's Senate nominee. The contenders, Eugene H. Nickerson, a Kennedy man, U. S. Rep. Joseph Y. Resnick, a staunch defender of the Johnson-Humph- rey administration, and former New York Councilman Paul O'Dwyer, a McCarthy admirer, carried their campaigning through the final weekend. OFFICIAL CHOICE IhMostobservers rated Nickerson the favorite, largely because he was the official choice of the Kennedy-controlled State Com- mittee and has strong organiza- tion support. Among incumbent congressmen facing contests were veteran Dem- ocrats Adam Clayton Powell and Emanuel Celler, the dean of New York's congressional delegation. Powell, the Harlem minister who has been denied seating by the U.S. House of Representatives, was a heavy favorite to beat John H. Young, a former staff aide. Celler's main opponent in a three-way fight was Rep. Edna F.

Court rules on eavesdropping Police may not use evidence overheard in telephone cals WASHINGTON (N) - Criminal evidence obtained by po- lice eavesdropping on a party line conversation may not be used in state courts to convict a man, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday. With the 6-3 decision, the court reversed the conviction of three Winter Park, Fla., men under Florida's lottery law. The three, Clyde Franklin Lee, Glen Dulen Brecheen and Cecil St. Clair Merritt, were convicted after an Orange Coun- ty jury heard tape recordings of telephone calls to Lee's house. Police had rented a' house nearby and were able to listen in when their telephone was put on Lee's party line. The convicted men contended that since the principals in the telephone conversations did not consent to the police eavesdrop- ping the tape recordings could not be used as evidence. Justice Potter Stewart delivered the majority opinion of the court. Justice Hugo L. Black wrote a separate dissenting opinion. Black, in announcing his dissent from the bench, said the court in its majority opinion had reversed its ruling of some 13 years ago. He added that "this is just one more case in which it will be more difficult to convict a criminal." The federal communications act makes it a crime for any person to intercept and divulge the con- tents of a telephone conversation without consent of one party to the conversation. In other action yesterday, the court denied permission for rail- roads to cut freight rates to meet truck and barge competition. Agreeing with the Interstate Commerce Commission, the court ruled 8-1 that rate-cut proposals may not be weighed by the stand- ard of "out-of-pocket" costs. Federal law and national trans- portation policy make it illegl to cut rates below cost to beat ou , a competing means of transporta- tion. The questiona was how to measure costs. The ICC ruled against the rail- roads and appealed along with the truck and barge interests to the court when the ruling was set aside by a federal court in Louis- ville May 15, 1967. CATV operators were spared by the court from having to pay for televised movies and other copy- righted material they pick up from TV stations and relay to their subscribers. The 5-1 decision was a major victory for operators 'of commu- nity antenna television systems and a major setback for firms which license motion pictures and cartoons to TV stations. Protest new ruling in Berlinl BERLIN ) - Demonstrators forced their way on to the grounds of the Soviet war memo- rial in West Berlin yesterday on the 15th anniversary of the 1953 uprising against Communist rule but retreated when Russians guards showed up. Police said the demonstration was directed against both the Russians and East Germany, which has placed new restrictions on access to West Berlin. The demonstrations came as President Johnson m e s s a g e d Chancellor Kurt George Keisinger in Bonn that the East German restrictions were "totally unpro- voked and, unjustified aggrava- tion." Johnson declared U.S. "support of free Berlin and the goal of a German people united in peace remains as firm as ever." UNITY DAY West Berlin police braced for possible further trouble at polit- ical rallies to observe both the, 17th of June National Unity DayM -as the anniversary is called-- and to protest new East German passport, visa and freight reg- ulations for all Germans travel- ing to and from West Berlin. West Berlin police said at least some of the demonstrators at the Soviet war memorial were be- lieved to be members of rightist student group. About 100 demonstrators . first staged a sit-in in front of the memorial, a small piece of land just inside West Berlin near the Brandenburg Gate. At this point one unofficial account said the Soviet guards took up their first defensive position. The demonstrators then march- ed to the gate and past the Com- munist wall that runs before it, throwing leaflets over into East Berlin protesting the new travel restrictions. The group shouted "Germany for the Germans," and "Russia for the Russians!" They sang the German national anthem. ms coup, r " si nation Nguyen Duc Thang from office. Thang, who is 37, was once the American-supported boss of the pacification program. For the past four months he has commanded the 4th Corps Area, which in- ,cludes the Mekong Delta. Reliable sources said Thang's closeness to Ky was the main reason that he was replaced yes- terday by Lt. Gen. Nguyen Van Le, former inspector general of the armed forces. Thang is for the time being on "indefinite sick leave," a euphemism for being fired, the sources said. His dis- missal had been rumored for a week.
