Black Panther appeal vowed by plaintiffs in civil suit
Attorneys for the Hampton and Clark families appeal a judge's directed verdict dismissing excessive force and wrongful death claims against seven Chicago police officers in the 1969 raid that left Panther leaders and activists dead. The 47.7 million suit stems from a 1969 preclaim raid and a 35 hour deadlock in the jury deliberations.

Sewickley, Pa. PennDOT plans a $9 million superstructure for the 88-year old Sewickley bridge over the Ohio with work to start by January 1979. Final design should be completed by end of 1978 if no delays, according to David Sims deputy secretary. The state hopes the federal government will cover 7 percent of the bill. PennDOT’s 1 percent share is already funded from the 1973-74 capital budget.
