Moro kidnapping hoax and shooting shake Rome politics
A Rome newspaper received a hoax call claiming Aldo Moro was freed near Via Pontina after 41 days in captivity, prompting police to search the area. In Rome another anonymous call blamed Red Brigades for an attacker shooting Christian Democratic leader Gerolamo Mechelli. Mechelli’s injuries were minor. Police named seven to nine suspects tied to the Red Brigades in Moro’s abduction, while a separate Morganton court case involves Naomi Mildred Anderson charging Keith Spurling with biting a boa constrictor’s tail.

New Federal Crop Insurance Proposal Aims for 1980 Coverage
Agriculture Secretary Bergland outlined a Carter plan for federal crop insurance covering 18 crops at three levels with a basic shared-premium policy and options for 70 and 90 percent protection. The program would reach 89 percent of U.S. crop acreage, cost the government about 542 million annually, and could be in place for 1980 winter crops if Congress acts quickly.
