Page 4 THE BATTALION FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1978 Ray loot and theft linked United Press International WASHINGTON-The House Assassinations Committee has gone further than the FBI in showing a single bank robbery could have financed the travels of James Earl Ray, the killer of Dr. Martin Luther King, a committee member said Thursday. The committee, in recess Thursday, plans to devote today’s hearing to evaluating the investigations by the FBI, local police and other agencies into King’s assassination in Memphis, Tenn., on April 4, 1968. Lack of proof of where Ray got money for thousands of miles of travel by car and plane after his escape from a Misssouri prison on April 23, 1967, until his capture in London on June 8, 1968, has fueled theories he had an accomplice. There is no evidence that Ray financed himself by a series of small robberies, which is the conclusion of the Justice Department report,’’ Rep. Floyd Fithian, D-Ind., told UPI in an interview. However, I think the committee has gone further both in question ing Ray and looking at other evidence pertaining to the possibility of a single bank robbery at Alton, Ill., having been the source of his funds, Fithian said. Fithian said this was the idea behind questions he asked Wednesday while Edward M. Evans, the chief committee investigator, reported on the FBI’s failure to link Ray to a single holdup in this country. “What I was driving at was the (FBI’s) assumption that Ray financed himself by a series of robberies but was found not to be implicated in any unsolved robbery,’’ Fithian said. “At first blush that seemed mutually contradictory. “But our work with regard to the Alton bank robbery, putting him near there, and answers Ray gave me (in an earlier hearing), placed him right in the vicinity of Alton on the day of the robbery,” Fithian said. The Bank of Alton was robbed of about $27,000 by two men wearing stocking masks on July 13, 1967. The robbery remains officially un solved. Evans told the committee he believes the Alton robbery is “the most probable alternative” to believing Ray’s story that he was paid $7,750 by a mysterious co-conspirator he knew only as “Raoul.

But as the two leaders met, Israeli officials announced that Defense Minister Ezer Weizman will fly home for a cabinet meeting today on the treaty negotiations. Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan, the other ranking member of the delegation, is already in Israel. As the 90-minute meeting began. Carter told Mobarak, "You are on an important mission representing a very great country and a great man. ” With reporters present in the Oval Office, Carter said, I hope that our conversation will be constm toward finding peace.'

Israel. $12 million funded for odd school ideas United Press International With America nearing its first trill ion dollar budget, $12 million may seem like, if not peanuts, a minor sum in the government picture. But what it s buying on the educa tion scene may help shape schooling after high school for millions of non- traditional students in the 21st cen tury. So it’s important peanuts. The $12 million, as Mary F Berry tells it, this year funds 175 projects for innovative programs to improve teaching and learning beyond high school. Berry is assistant secretary for education, U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The $12 million is from the nation's Fund for the Improvement of Postsecon dary Education. Established by the Education Amendments Act of 1972, the hind awards seed money to get local in novative projects oft’ the ground. Then, local hinds are expected to keep it going. If you are a blue-collar worker, an offender or ex-oflender, a black or Hispanic, a disadvantaged man or woman, a well-off adult wanting to try your luck with a new career, you may he eligible. The smorgasbord of demonstra tion programs funded by the new grants includes: —To the Board of Begents, Uni versity of the State of New York, $46,812 to train college graduate ex-offenders to serve as advisors to inmates in selected New York State prisons.
