Pathologist links carotid body abnormality to crib death
Pennsylvania State University pathologist Dr. Richard Naeye studied 56 sudden infant death syndrome victims and found 86 percent had abnormal carotid bodies, organs that regulate breathing. He notes a chronic abnormality may exist since birth and suggests carotid body defects could be a major clue in a substantial portion of cases, prompting further tests for high risk infants.

Colorado stamps riled resident prints own 1976 issue
Steve Datz and the Committee to Commemorate Colorado printed their own stamps after the Postal Service failed to issue a 100th statehood anniversary commemorative. The sheets cost 800 dollars and were intended for decorative use on envelopes, not postage, with a warning of possible fines if used as stamps.

Commodore Hotel to Close After Big Losses
The Commodore Hotel in New York City will shut May 18, sparking 500 layoffs. Penn Central, owner of Realty Hotels, cited 1975 losses of 1.3 million and estimated 1976 losses at 4.6 million, with street-level shops unaffected. A February sit-in by hotel workers over wages and severance helped drive the closure. Realty will pay retroactive claims of 70,000 and severance of 430,000, with additional preference likely.

The piece also recalls George Washington Carver as the first American honored with an Indian monument in 1947.
