The judge demanded sworn depositions from police officials supporting the closure and stressed it would be a last resort to shut the complex permanently.

Justice Douglas Not Near Death After Stroke
UPI reports Justice William C. Douglas, 76, suffered a fall and weakness while in Nassau with his wife. Doctors say his mind remains clear and his condition is serious but not life threatening, with a pacemaker and anticoagulants to prevent clots. He slept comfortably at Walter Reed and is alert, conserving strength for tests. President Ford arranged transport home from Nassau. Douglas grew up in Yakima and, despite disagreements with Chief Justice Burger, remains close to him and continues on the court with a rapid pace.
