Wild Goose Chase From Iceland Captures Attention
Washington dispatch reports the pink footed goose nests in rugged Iceland with four to seven eggs as Lorimer Moe and Dr. Finnir Gudmundsson lead a bird watching mission. Despite helicopter difficulties, the team records 3,000 pairs and emphasizes international cooperation including military support. In West Virginia, five Alderson inmates are indicted by a grand jury for attempted escape, with arraignments to follow.
