Volunteers Find Boys Lost On Sugarloaf Mountain
State Police and Montgomery County volunteers located two boys lost on Sugarloaf Mountain after an overnight search. Authorities say the youths are alive and in good health. The rescue involved multiple agencies including the State Police, county police, and local volunteers, with a police helicopter aiding searches from the Stronebald area toward the summit. Temperature dips and rain hindered operations, but neighbors helped by locating the boys’ tracks and discussing the hillside terrain.

Convicts Seize Courthouse Hostages In D C District Court
Two convicts, Robert Jones and Frank Gorham, held seven hostages in a basement cellblock of the U.S. District Courthouse for a second day as hundreds of armed officers surrounded the building. The crisis began after they seized four deputy marshals and two Justice Department workers, later gaining seven more weapons. The men, long familiar to authorities as ringleaders in a 1972 jail escape, demanded freedom and at one point said they wished to go to Venezuela.

A 30 cent bid at a Woodsboro auction secured a framed photo later identified as an early Frederick scene. The image shows a three story building at North Market and Church Streets, razed about 62 years ago, possibly from Byerly Studio roots.
