Emergency Repairs Planned for Flood Damaged Riverside Roads
County Engineer DiCicco warned of imminent danger from heavy snowmelt and runoffs from Catalina sources. Plans include 100000 to widen rights of way and 250000 to channel the Rillito River for flows near Flowing Wells Road. East Side sewer repairs estimated at 1.13 million with 325000 for temporary fixes. Debris and flood damage force rapid pipe purchases, with permanent design to follow. A presidential disaster declaration could unlock federal aid and long term financing. Road and bridge damage totals include 300000 state, 80000 county, 40000 streets, and 30000 to 90000 Tucson. First Avenue bridge reopened today. Campbell Avenue slated for completion soon.

Truce Debated as Viet Cong Violations Emerge
Fallout from the failed Christmas truce described by AP shows Viet Cong violations and resumed hostilities after midnight. The 30 hour Allied truce and 12 hour Viet Cong cease fire overlapped with unclear U.S. and Vietnamese orders. Details of violations ranged from Marine patrol destruction near Da Nang to low level incidents on Christmas Eve. Washington statements and internal confusion framed the briefings as reporters pressed for clarity.
