A 19 year old Army draftee who hijacked a plane with 97 aboard to Vancouver gains a court ordered delay in deportation proceedings. Chaplin Paterson of Shingle Springs California must be produced in court to show cause why he should not be released from custody while authorities decide on landed immigrant status. The hijacking forced a Western Airlines jet from San Francisco to Seattle to Vancouver after the pilot convinced the hijacker there was not enough fuel to reach Cuba.
