Notable Visitor Lions in Atlanta Office Meet Governor Maddox

A bearded visitor, described as a young lion, attended Gov. Lester Maddox's weekly People's Day in Atlanta. Dottie Howell, 16, brought the pet to meet Maddox, who initially stepped back as the lion growled, then posed for a photo once it was deemed harmless. The event sparked attention in the capital.

Doubts on California Exposition Funding by State Panel

A special committee appointed by Governor Reagan weighed the fate of the $33 million California Exposition to replace the old state fair. San Francisco hotelman Benjamin Swig said the state would not proceed without assured funding, noting income bonds and questioning whether the money will be available. He added that a year around exposition could be worthwhile if financed.

Reuther to Seek Vote on Quitting AFL-CIO

Walter P. Reuther plans to seek a vote by about 1,300 delegates at the UAW and affiliated unions in Atlantic City on whether to quit the AFL-CIO. The proposal would pull the 1.4 million member United Auto Workers from the federation over claims the labor movement has not negotiated in good faith and with enough responsiveness to the UAW. The measure, likely Friday or Saturday, would require substantial support for a split ahead of a possible UAW convention in Detroit in April.

Man Freed After Year In Michigan Prison

A 30 year old father of four released from Southern Michigan Prison after serving more than a year for a crime he did not commit. The case arose amid broader unions and AFL CIO tensions involving Walter Reuther, Meany, and the UAW leadership during a three day conference, with threats of resignations and restructuring. The report also notes state bond considerations for an exposition project and a Warren robbery case tied to new evidence leading to a release.
