New Motions Expected for Black Panther
San Francisco lawyer Francis J. McTernan planned new motions today for Bobby Seale in Chicago. Seale, 33, was held in contempt for courtroom disruptions during the 1968 DNC trial and sentenced by Judge Julius J. Hoffman to four years. Hoffman denied motions to vacate contempt and to set bond pending appeal. Seale remains jailed on a New Haven fugitive warrant charging murder, the only defendant not on bond.

Agreement on arch Route Undecided
Washington officials and protest leaders stood about 1000 feet from a decision on the mass march route through the capital set for November 15. The Justice Department agreed to let the march proceed along Constitution Avenue with no side trip to the White House, after talks with White House aides, but the New Mobilization Committee rejected the offer, insisting marchers pass in front of the White House. Deputy Atty. Gen. Kleindienst said the plan satisfies both sides and negotiations on other route options continue.
