Intensive Hunt On For Bomb Planters

The FBI leads an intensive nationwide hunt for Weather Underground members linked to the State Department bombing in Washington and an attempted bombing in Oakland California. A federal task force, including a large share of the Washington field office and agents nationwide, pursues the group believed to have fewer than 30 members. Authorities note hoaxes and actual bombs, with the Oakland device exploded harmlessly. The Weather Underground members, once the Weather Underground, surfaced after 1970 indictments. The group发布 bom bs in protest of U.S. involvement in Southeast Asia.

Wages Of Watergate Tour Focuses On Dean

John W. Dean II begins a nine week lecture tour in colleges earning at least 175000 dollars. He will speak in over 50 halls at about 3500 dollars per two hour appearance, with the first at the University of Virginia paying 4000 dollars. Dean, released from prison January 8, remains a focal point of Watergate coverage, while Ronald Ziegler faces less favorable reception at Michigan State where a 2500 dollar fee sparked protests and a student council funding dispute. Public reaction ranges from support to censorship debate.
