TOWNSHIRE
YIPs Disappear In Alaska
JUNEAU, Alaska <A>)_The Air
Force launched a search for an
overdue small plane carrying
House Majority Leader Hale
Boggs of Louisiana and U.S. Rep.
Nick Begich Monday.
“We assume that the airplane
is down,” a Federal Aviation Ad
ministration spokesman said.
The twin-engine plane, carry
ing four persons, was due to land
at Juneau at 5:30 p.m. EDT on
a nonstop flight from Anchorage,
where Boggs had been campaign
ing for Begich.
The plane would have run out
of fuel at 8 p.m., the FAA spokes
man said.
There was no radio contact
with the plane after the pilot
filed a flight plan 12 minutes
after take-off from Anchorage,
he added.
The flight plan called for vi
sual flight rules and followed
the rugged Alaska coast, lined
with mountains 5,000 to 7,000
feet high.
“There could be many circum
stances, like a malfunctioning ra
dio or being out of radio range,
that could cause us to lose con-

tact, but the plane has passed its
fuel exhaustion time and we as
sume that the airplane is down,”
the FAA spokesman said.
A search of airfields where
the plane might have landed turn
ed up no sign of the aircraft.
In Anchorage, a spokesman for
the National Tiansportation Safe

AUSTIN, Tex. <A>>—A rule in
the Texas Constitution killed a
bill reinstating the death penalty
in certain murder cases Monday
night.
Senators tentatively approved
such a bill Monday, but the con
stitutional point raised in the
House Criminal Jurisprudence
Committee will block final action
on the measure.
Texas’ Constitution says no bill
can be considered that was not
approved by a legislative commit
tee at least three days before the
close of a session. The current
special session must adjourn by
midnight Tuesday, and the meas-
ure considered by the Senate was
not acted on in committee until
Monday morning.
Rep. Tom Moore of Waco'raised
the point in the House committee,
trip they may have stopped along
the way but we have no reason
to believe that and really don’t.”
The FAA spokesman said the
plane, a Cessna 310, carried crash-
location equipment but no signal
had been received.
The other persons aboard the
plane were Russell Brown, an
administrative assistant to Beg
ich, and the pilot, Don E. Jonz.
and chairman Frank Calhoun of
Abilene upheld it.
The measure, as it advanced in
the Senate, would have permitted
the death penalty in cases of
murder for hire; murder of prison
guards; intentional homicide dur
ing a kidnapping, burglary, rob
bery arson or rape; murder of
policemen or firemen; murder
with “extreme atrocity or cruel
ty;” and slaying committed dur
ing prison escapes.
The Senate eliminated murder
with “deliberate premeditation”
and second offense murder as
crimes for which death could be
imposed.
The U.S. Supreme Court recent
ly struck down the Texas death
penalty as currently applied, with
several justices commenting on
the penalty’s random application.
Death Penalty Bill Killed
By Constitutional Ruling
When this 25-year-old researcher
wanted to investigate a possible cancer treatment
we gave him the go-ahead. ’
We also gave him the right to fail.
At Kodak, it’s not unusual for a 25-year-old like Jim
Carroll to win the title of senior research physicist. Like any
company involved in a lot of basic research, Kodak has felt
the pressure of modern technology and the need for young,
fresh thinking. So we hire the best talent we possibly can,
and then give them as much responsibility as they can han
dle. Whatever their age.
We have departments and divisions, like any company.
What we don’t have are preconceived ideas about how an
expert scientist’s time should be spent. So when we received
a request from the medical community for assistance in ex
perimenting with lasers as a possible cancer treatment, we
turned to 25-year-old Jim Carroll, who is deep in laser tech-
nology, and gave him the go-ahead. He built two half-billion
watt laser systems, one of which Kodak has donated to the
National Institute of Health.
The lasers proved unsuccessful in treating cancer, but
we’d make the same decision all over again. We entered laser
technology because we have a stake in business. We let a
young researcher help the medical community look for a
means of cancer treatment because we have a stake in the
future of mankind.
To put it another way, we’re in business to make a
profit. But in furthering our own needs, we have often fur
thered society’s. After all, our business depends on our soci
ety. So we care what happens to it.
