pathizers.
At Bailey s insistence, she said her attor
neys had made no effort to secure her re
lease on bail “because I would be safer in
the jail. ” Carter revoked bail shbrtly after
her arrest Sept. 18.
Browning questioned Miss Hearst for
about 15 minutes Wednesday, still fuming
from his heated exchange with Bailey out
side the presence of the jury.
The jurors had been ushered out of the
courtroom when Bailey attempted to ques
tion his client about last week’s bombing at
the Hearst castle at San Simeon and a letter
threatening her family with more ter
rorism.
Bailey said the bombing and threat em
phasized Miss Hearst’s continuing fear of
the Harrises and others “still out to get
you.”
At the government’s request, the jury
was removed, and Browning argued that it
was not relevant to the case. The judge
agreed and cut Bailey off, but Bailey angrily
stated for the record that Miss Hearst and
her family “are still targets. ”
Then Browning protested the exclusion
of a year from Miss Hearst’s story, a time
“when we believe she was in Sacramento
living with the Harrises and that based on
documents we have and would offer as
proof, she was out casing banks with the
Harrises.
Carter said the prosecutor had the right
to cross-examine “on all areas on which
she’s opened up in her direct examination. ”
The judge said, “I don’t think the matter
is that significant. There are plenty of areas
already opened up, Mr. Browning. . . and
if that doesn’t give you areas to question
her, I don’t know what is.”
The jury was returned to the courtroom,
Bailey quickly ended his direct examina
tion and Browning, his face still red with
anger, opened with several routine ques
tions.
“And, I would like to cross-examine Miss
Hearst on those documents. ”
Bailey jumped to his feet and snapped,
“You may not. You may not, and you know
it.”
At one point in the brief exchange, Miss
Hearst said she endorsed social change but
did not support any sort of violent change.
“It doesn’t look much like it, (
said.
During Wednesday’s session,!
Hearst had sat impassively asavife

When Carter agreed with Bailey,
Browning persisted, waving documents in
the air.
At the end of the day, Browning was
asked outside of court if there was any
chance of ever opening up the year that the
defense wants kept out of the trial.

Krantz, felt the stories of large,
hair-covered creatures were worth
looking into.
Bryant said that in 1969, “I was
young, ambitious and trying to make
my mark in the world.” When he
first took a serious interest in Bigfoot
and began examining with Krantz,
he was skeptical.

“I thought someone was really pul
ling off a good one,” he said, if he
could prove the Bigfoot stories false
once and for all, he figured he’d be
famous. “I thought I’d have my pic
ture in the paper and appear on the
Johnny Carson show.”
The two anthropologists checked
newspaper accounts and traced
down those who said they had seen
Bigfoot. At first, many alleged Big
foot encounters were obviously
faked or the evidence too cir
cumstantial to be meaningful.
Once, a reported sighting by a boy
.scout troop rated a big article in a
Spokane daily newspaper. Upon in
vestigation, Bryant found the boy sc
outs didn’t actually see a Bigfoot, but
only heard a large animal rustling in
the brush near their tents.
In Kettle Falls, a small town in
northern Washington, large foot
prints in the snow drew hordes of
media and tourists. A footprint
stamping device made of plywood
and covered with a carpetlike mate
rial was found in a ditch near the
tracks.
Bryant and Krantz followed up
many reports that could be attrib
uted to questionable lighting or con
fusion with other animals. But there
were a few incidents that couldn’t be
explained away so easily.
Part II will evaluate the evidence
supporting Bigfoot’s existence.

Doug Durham joined the “American Indian
Movement” in March, 1973, at the request
of the F.B.I. As an undercover operative, he
became National Security Director, National
Administrator and Director of National Offices.
In March, 1975, Doug Durham surfaced. Now he
gives lectures about A.I.M. and says that it is a military operation.
“The American Indian,” says Durham, “is under attack by the
revolutionaries of A.I.M.—criminal renegades armed with Soviet
AK-47 assault rifles and backed by federal funds.”
