Navy recruits sea lions to retrieve anti sub rockets

Norfolk and San Diego based sea lions join the Navy effort to recover antisubmarine rockets from the sea floor. The eight trained animals, part of Inshore Undersea Warfare Group 1, place the recovery device on the rocket, then surface for reward. Officials say mines may also be retrieved, potentially easing East and West Coast operations.

Contributions To N Y Mayor Apparently Violated Laws

New York records show two 53 000 donations listed for Mayor Abraham Beame in 1973 likely came from real estate developer Christopher Boomis via relatives and associates. Betsy Marsh admitted Boamis funded Beame’s campaign with 5 000 on October 4 1973, saying she did it for him. Boomis allegedly provided another 4 000 to Victor Ligzul, a construction supervisor. Authorities note 10 000 in camouflaged contributions plus an estimated 25 000 from dummy companies after a meeting with Irving Goldman and Bernard Beame. Boomis denies responsibility and claims offers of a lucrative housing project in exchange for the contributions.
