Opening day deer hunt ends in triumph and tragedy
On the first day of the 1970 deer season, some hunters secured bucks while others faced injuries and arrests for game-law violations. A man was killed by another hunter, a youth was missing then found alive, a stray bullet reportedly hit a person, and a cat was shot by mistake for a deer. A lost hunter prompted a large search near Guys Mills as troopers and volunteers combed the woods. Dorothy Prentice of Leavittsburg, Ohio, was wounded in the hand in a hunting accident and treated in Titusville Hospital. The issue noted multiple hunting-related incidents across Meadville, Titusville, and surrounding areas.

NTSB cites DC8 elevator defect as possible takeoff hazard
The National Transportation Safety Board warned the FAA a month ago of a DC8 elevator design flaw that can jam from foreign objects on takeoff. Investigators say this defect, seen in a Kennedy Airport crash, could go undetected due to lack of cockpit elevator position indication and require aborts if early rotation occurs.

Inflation Alert Signals Wage Price Curbs Amid Fed Cut
The Nixon administration released a second inflation alert targeting wage and price increases as the Fed cut the discount rate from 5 percent to a lower level. Economists see the move as easing money policy, with inflation measures rising and administration pressure on wage and price restraint growing. The White House signaled a tougher, more specific alert and hinted at a possible appeal to unions and management to moderate wages and prices.
