Carey sees budget gap but no tax hike
Albany AP. Governor Hugh Carey warns of a potential billion dollar gap in the next state budget but says he will not seek tax increases. The 11 billion plus current budget runs a projected 230 million hole due to welfare cost increases. Carey's plan relies on spending cuts and cabinet help to craft belt tightening before the January 18 budget presentation for fiscal year 1977 78.

Custodian Holds Toy Gun Rebel By Smoke Protest On Skyscraper
In Los Angeles a 21 year old school custodian, Dolphin Lair, held a harmless starter pistol to a hostage's head for two and a half hours atop the United California Bank Building. He demanded TV coverage to air his anti smoking views after his father died of lung cancer. He surrendered after a radio broadcast of his written statement. The 55 year old engineer, Martin Hickey, was unharmed. Barricades and evacuations followed as police negotiators and SWAT teams acted. Lair was jailed on suspicion of kidnapping with bail set at 5000 dollars.
