Vesco leaves seclusion delays U S return in Costa Rica
Vesco emerges from seclusion in Costa Rica and says he will not return to the United States until the special prosecutor begins work. He cites political conditions and the ongoing investigation into his $200,000 Nixon re election contribution and dealings with Investors Overseas Services. The episode ties Vesco to Archibald Cox’s appointment as special prosecutor and to Costa Rican and Bahamian financial links linked to President Jose Figueres.

Deadline Set for Los Angeles Rapid Transit Plan SB 205
The Senate committee approved an amended SB 205 requiring the Southern California Rapid Transit District to present a complete rapid transit plan for the Los Angeles area by January 10. The measure also mandates cost‑benefit analyses for any bus fleet expansion and argues the district has overemphasized buses at the expense of rail transit.

Frostbitten Yank climber recalls Himalayan ordeal conquest
John Roskelley and Dr Louis Reichardt became the first Americans to summit Mt Dhaulagiri in Nepal reaching the 24 60 foot camp. They spent nine days in a sleeping bag boiled water to survive a 150 mile per hour monsoon wind and endured zero degree temperatures. Roskelley later returned home with frostbitten toes and spoke from a wheelchair about the mental and physical battle and the moments at the summit and on descent.
