The $1.5 Million Mistake Part II Bank Bonds Case
Wells Fargo mistakenly credited almost 1.6 million to Saudi prince Binabdulaziz in Fayetteville prompting a sheriff sale of his bonds and two cars. Maddy Drug & Sundry bid 1.06 million for GMAC bonds, with Wells Fargo to net 1.06 million plus earlier 9,000 and 15,000 from car sales and bank account respectively. The house at 5203 Duane Drive remains unsold in limbo as authorities pursue remaining bonds.

Charles Kuralt on the Road With CBS Crew in Central New York
A CBS On the Road segment follows Charles Kuralt and his two-man film crew as they travel in a modified motor home across Central New York. Mechanical delays, in-an-episode downtime, and reflections on Kuralt’s humble America anchor their visit to Millers Mills and DeWitt. The crew notes Kuralt drives the van, packs video gear, and keeps a fishing license reel-ready as they prepare running shots for upcoming broadcasts.

Experts say a convergence of economic forces and wage pressures, with profitability cited as weak, is driving a summer of labor disputes. Local leaders note a shift of power toward management and warn that strikes could accelerate before summer ends.

Crystal Photoprofits Triple Amid Trial Details
Federal prosecutors argue Anthony Petrov used tax returns to explain profits from Spectra and Crystal Photo operations in North Syracuse. In 1981 the firms earned pre tax $293,769.82 while assets exceeded $1 million, as Petrov and two supervisors face charges over mailing explicit material. The trial in Syracuse continues with disputed ads and model age terms and Petrov testifies about a 1981 FBI raid and lab policies.
