It notes a $5,000 Lucite bath tub with built in aquarium, $16,000 dolphin pin, $600 book portfolio, a $35,000 one day cruise for 600, and a $588,247 mammal held ark item.

Writers Plead Not Guilty Over Berrigan Harboring Case
Dr William Stringfellow and poet Anthony Towne plead not guilty to federal charges of harboring Rev Daniel Berrigan a fugitive. They defend their actions as relief and lodging offered in a time of antiwar protest and demand an end to violence and repression. The indictment follows Berrigans 1968 Catonsville draft record destruction which earned a three-year sentence.
