Emergency landing fracas on a four engine Eastern Air Lines jet ends with 58 passengers and seven crew unhurt after the nose wheel fails. Plane slides 1000 feet on foam covered runway, then rests with minor injuries and a dramatic escape.
Police charged Lt. Wayne Snow McFarland, 23, with assault with a deadly weapon and burglary in a string of shoe snatchings that left about 100 pairs of women’s shoes missing. Authorities found shoes in his apartment and other locations as the investigation linked him to the cases near North Island Naval Air Station. McFarland, described as an outstanding officer, surrendered after a chase following a sighting at a divorcee’s home. The case also noted an endurance space chamber feat by Lt. Vehden Jr. and Gomulka’s visit to Hungary in a broader, unrelated context.
