Will of Howard Hughes Probed After Utah Man Named Executor

A three page holographic will of Howard Hughes was filed in Las Vegas and allegedly names Noah Dietrich as executor.

Curtis assesses HHH decision shifts Maine toward Carter

Two Maine Democrats say Hubert Humphrey's choice to stay out of the presidential race will boost Jimmy Carter support both locally and nationally. Former Gov Ken Curtis and party chair Harold Pachios foresee easier convention delegate wins for Carter at the May 9 state convention and note high uncommitted caucus support already backing Carter. Curtis argues Humphrey’s move effectively secures Carter’s nomination despite ongoing uncertainties.
