32 48 Pages SENTINEL TELEPHONE OA den Party Disowns Young Demos9 Liberal Platform 00 Stntlml T.ll.h.iMfl ureau TALLAHASSEE The "everything goes" platform of the Florida Young Democrats was disowned and blasted by party elders and the group's Orange County president Monday Adopted by a unanimous vote at the organization's annual convention in St. Petersburg over the weekend, the platform called for abolition of restrictions on homosexuality, fornication, cohabitation, abortion, divorce and marijuana. Dick Batchelor, president of the Orange County Young Democrats, said in Orlando Monday the vote was not unanimous and he will ask for a retraction. Sen. W.

D. Childers, D-Pensacola, Gov. Reubin Askew's successor in the senate, took the floor to label the younger party members "hoodlums and bums." "Let them know, right now, and everybody else in the state know, that I do not subscribe to any of it," he said. "And I am certain there is not another Democrat in this senate who does. "THOSE YOUNG Democrats are nothing but hoodlums and bums trying to destroy this country," said Childers.

The platform was adopted in the wake of a resolution by the Young Democrats of Escambia County, Askew's own area, that the Pledge of Allegiance not be recited at YD meetings. "That kind of thing will lead to the breakdown of our whole moral and religious structure, just when we need to reaffirm those principles," said Sen. John Broxson, D-Gulf Breeze, former Santa Rosa County sheriff. In Fort Lauderdale the young attorney installed as president at the YD convention, Eddie Kay, called the remarks by Broxson and Childers "irresponsible." "THEY DO NOT realize that the platform is an example of the YDs desire to work within the system, not outside it," he declared. "That is the kind of reaction that is leading to the polarization 6etween young people and old people," said Kay.

"I deeply resent being called a hoodlum or a bum and it does not sound like a very responsible thing for a man to say who is holding a responsible position."

There was no new exchange of views, ASKEW CANCELLED a trip to Miami planned for Wednesday and Thursday, but there was no immediate plan for his going before another joint meeting of the legislature. The governor summoned more than a dozen key legislators to private meetings in his office and pleaded for an agreement on a spending bill.

He continued the conferences at the executive mansion Monday night. House Speaker Richard Pet-tigrew, emerging from one of the huddles, said the deadlock continued but declared he will "do everything I can to force an agreement by Tuesday." WHILE RANK and file legislators sat idle awaiting a compromise, Pettigrew said Askew has agreed to expand the session call. But there was no definite decision as to when the governor would open the session to consider a substitute for the no fault divorce bill he vetoed last week, aid to cities, reconsideration of the regional transit authority bill and other issues.

F. TERHORST North American Newspaper Alliance A I NGTON Rosemary Woods, Richard Nixon's personal secretary for 20 years, attributes the President's consideration for others to a sensitivity few perceive in him. She thinks it was nurtured by a lifetime of struggle. "He never had it easy, you know; he never got anything on a silver plate. So he has this terrific empathy for other people's feelings.

He senses what's in your mind and heart." MISS WOODS, in her late forties is practically a member of the Nixon family, almost the sister he i Classified Material, Says Laird What Report Says, Pg. 2-A WASH INGTON (Reuter) The Pentagon Monday charged a viola-tion of national security was involved in the leak of secret documents on how the United States became involved in the Vietnam war. Defense Secretary Melvin R. Laird announced he had referred to the Justice Department the alleged violation arising from, publication of the documents in -The Mew York Times. PENTAGON spokesman Jerry Friedheim described the leak as a security violation and said an investigation was going on to determine who gave the documents to The New York Times and if the newspaper also was liable for publishing them.

The documents, containing millions of words, were assembled under the direction of Robert S. McNamara when he was secretary of defense in President Johnson's administration, and now are appearing in The New York Times over a number of days. Laird told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee the documents were classified and should not have been made public since they contained highly sensitive material. "I HAVE a responsibility to call the attention of these violations to the Department of Justice, and this I have done," he said. Laird did not challenge the authenticity of the documents as published in The New York Times.

The newspaper said they showed, among other things, how Johnson planned for major U.S. military action in Vietnam almost five months before North Vietnamese torpedo boats reportedly attacked American warships in the Gulf of Tonkin in 1964. The Tonkin Gulf incident and subsequent events led to the American bombing of North Vietnam and the big U.S. troop buildup in South Vietnam. (Continued On Page 2-A, Col.

Initial indications were that the spacecraft was not affected by the electrical storm, but a spokesman said the first half of a two-day test was stalled "to verify there are no problems on board."

Engineers reported lights flashed on instru--ment panels at the nearby launch control center and two power supplies on the launch tower failed.

A spokesman emphasized that lightning did not strike the 446-foot tower or the rocket standing next to it on the launch pad. A Titan 2 rocket being prepared for the unmanned Gemini 2 launching was damaged by a nearby lightning strike in 1964 and the Gemini mission was delayed several months.
