Capsize search widens as Coast Guard probes three missing
A Newport Beach group and a hitchhiking incident frame a week of peril off the Pacific coast. A 17 year old West LA girl was found injured in a Santa Monica apartment carport after a hitchhiking tale turned violent. Coast Guard crews search two miles offshore from Grays Harbor for Diane Genoway and two Newport Beach residents feared drowned when the 50 foot Grundle capsized in 35 foot waves. Frank Guertin, the only survivor, reported a failed rescue of his wife and a second woman from the overturned vessel as a dinghy drifted ashore at Grayland.

Protests on Los Angeles County taxes fall short of prior years
County records show roughly 4,000 protests filed by property owners, far below 6,400 last year and 17,172 in 1966, with officials attributing the decline to steady assessment formulas used since 1967. EL MONTE Allied Industrial Workers Local 425 ended a month-long strike at Sargeant-Fletcher Inc. with a three-year contract, granting wage increases of 10, 5, and 8 cents over the years. The agreement covers about 400 workers.
