Ransom Demands and Paris Kidnapping of Phonogram Chief
Six gunmen abducted Louis Hazan, 54, president of Phonogram Co., from Paris offices on December 31 and carried him in a wicker basket. Police said the $3.4 million ransom was ready for delivery as wife Mrs. Hazan reported no progress toward his release. Investigators tied the event to prior incidents including an October bombing and a fraud case involving $800,000. The attackers, aged 25 to 30, spoke with Hazan’s wife by phone before leaving with a second captive, the financial director, in a separate vehicle. The incident marked France’s second major kidnapping in a short period.

Miller declares bid for Virginia governor in 1977
Attorney General Andrew P. Miller announces he will seek the Democratic nomination for governor, triggering a high profile primary clash with former Lt. Gov. Henry Howell. Miller resigns as attorney general in 1977 to campaign, notes a forward looking platform and raises potential 1 million dollar war chest. Howell, an independent in past races, faces a party fracture but vows to run. Miller plans multi city announcements and cites education crime control and utility regulation as core issues.
