Atlantic Coasi
.Digging Out
By United Press International
A snow storm besieged the Rocky Mountain west Friday white
residents of the Middle Atlantic Seaborad dug out of dee? snsws
left by a recDrdbreaking, last-of-Xovember storm.
Traveler's warnings were hoisted in the mountains cf Colorado
southern Wyoming and eastern and southern Utah.
Up to 11 inches of new snc covered sections of Utah and
Nevada. Two southern Nevada towns, Calinete and Pioche, were
snowed in.
Gale winds and high tide3 pounded the Pacific Northwest coast
as a new Pacific storm moved in. Rain and drizzle spread across
the Middle West and th3 drizzle froze as it hit ground in the
upper Mississippi Valley.
, The storm that spread snow from Missouri to New England
moved out lo sea, leaving an 8 to 12 inch blanket of snow in the
Washington-Baltimore area. The blast of premature winter was
blamed for at least 19 deaths, most of them in accidents on snow
slicked highways.
. Electricity was restored to thousands of homes and businesses
hit by power failures in the Washington area. Most schools
reopened in the snow belt.
Hundreds of workers began the job of clearing eight inches of
snow from the John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia to make
it comfortable for Saturday's Army-Navy football game. They
planned to work all night if necessary.
In the wake of the storm, many sections cf New England had
their coldest night of the season. The temperature dropped to 3
below zero early Friday at Montpelier, Vt.
The nation's law was 10 below at Butte, Mont.
Army Pf c.
Wins Fight,
Gets Out
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)
The Army surrendered Friday
to Pfc. Joe Allen Smith, who
spent 18 months of his tour of
duty at home awaiting orders,
and agreed to discharge him.
The military announced its
capitulation the same jnoment
as Smith's brigade of lawyers
marched into Federal Court
seeking a writ of habeas cor
pus on grounds the private was
being held in the Army il
legally. Smith, 23, of Brownsville,
Calif.r spent-" most-of-his two
year tour at home working as
a logger awaiting new transfer
orders. When his two years
were up, he notified the brass
he wanted out.
They put him back in
.uniform and stationed him at
the San Francisco Presidio.
His attorneys went to court
Friday, charging Smith was
being held in the Army in
violation of his constitutional
rights.
A 6th Army spokesman said
Smith -would be released "as
soon as necessary processing
can be accomplished," pro
bably next week.
The private, drafted in June,
1935, went on a 30-day leave in
December, 1963, expecting to
go to Oakland Army Center for
transfer to Southeast Asia. But
he was trapped by Army red
tape.
"Your port call date of 28
Dec. '65 has been canceled.
Repeat, has been canceled,"
read a telegram from Ft.
Hood, Tex. "Special orders
reflecting a new P-C date will
follow "
That telegram, said Smith,
"was , signed by the com
manding general at Ft. Hood.
He's a pretty big man in the
Army, I guess."
The orders never came.
Smith, tired of fishing and hun
ting, got a job as a logger
earning about $130 a week. His
wife drew an Army allotment
of $95.20 a month.
Smith sought his discharge
when his tyo-year service duty
had terminated.
"I'm no angel," Smith ad
mitted. "But still the Army
can't charge me with anything.
All I did was follow orders."

Mas Nostalgic Time
By PATRICIA DAVIS
NEW YORK (UPI) More
than 30 years ago, "Prince"
Mike Romanoff visited the New
York Police Department's 19th
Precinct as a prisoner. He was
booked as a fugitive from Ellis
Island where he had been de-
tained as an illegal immigrant,
This fall, Romanoff, ex-
restaurateur and confidante of

nine", as the cops call the 19th,

Romanoff, now a mellow 78
years old, reminisced about his
first visit to the 19th.
Romanoff stayed in the
United States after serving his
time. He became a U.S. citizen
in 1958 by an act of Congress.
In 1939 he opened his famed
restaurant "Romanoff's" in
Beverly Hills, Calif. Romanoff
left the restaurant business in
,1963 to become associated with
the motion picture industry.
After seeing the precinct
house again Romanoff re

as it did in 1931 ... but this
time I smiled when I walked

Carmichael Gels A Name
adding a name plate to the
preparation for the opening of
ation Rests
gubernatorial candidate to car
ry the Moore faction's banner
into party wars next year.
Sources close to the camp of
Lt. Gov. -Robert Scott, an all-but-announced
candidate for
the same Democratic
gubernatorial nomination, said
they expected Broughton to
say he would aim for the
state's highest office when he
holds a news conference Mon
day in Raleigh.
On the Republican side of the
s t i 1 1-budding gubernatorial
campaign, Charlotte
businessman John L. Stickley
said he would be in Charlotte,
Greensboro, Morganton and
Gaston County next week to
pursue his quest for his party's
nominaton.
bticKiey is to noid a neys
conference in Greensboro Wed
nesday prior to attendance at a
reception; he will also be at a
Republican meeting in
Morganton Friday and a civic
club dinner in Charlotte Tues
day. Thursday will be spent in
Gaston.
A signal that Broughton may
be running might have come
Friday when Gov. Dan Moore
spoke out in favor, of an Ap-palachian-type
road building
program for- the coastal
plains. , :
Using the opening cf a 28
mile section of interstate 95 at
Goldrcck as his forum, the
Governor said he was in favor
of more roads in the Easi an
issue that is expected to be hot
in 1988.
Pointing out the Federal
government pays 70 per cent of
Appalachian read building
costs compared with the usual
50-50 federal-state sharing pro
gram, Moore said "The same
type of program, I feel, should
be conducted in eastern North
Carolina." -With
Broughton as a can
With Broughton as a can
didate in 19S8, the Governor's
statement could be interpreted
as a move against Stickley
who has strongly endorsed an
East-West expressway.
It could also be a bid for
eastern support much the
same as Scott's "Law and
Order" speech was a few
weeks ago in Dunn. In this
way, however, the Moore fac
tion would be appealing to the

Embassy Repudiates
'Peace Talk' Report
' SAIGON (UPI) The U.S.
embassy vigorously denied a
report Friday that American
and Viet Cong officials had
met in Saigon or ever planned
such la conference. .
An embassy statement said
Negroes Riot
After Parade
Iji-Miami
MIAMI UPI)-A band of
young Negroes trailing, the
blaring bands of a football
game parade went on a brief
rampage Friday, snatching
purses and grabbing goods
from stores in downtown
Miami.
Police in patrol cars and on
motorcycles Hooded the area
quickly and sealed off the area
into which most of the
troublemakers fled. Officers
caught four with loot, three
juveniles and one 18-year-old.
The trouble was over in less
than an hour but police re
mained in the area.
A spokesman said 25 to 30
young Negroes walking the
sidewalks and street at the end
of a colorful parade promoting
the Orange Blossom classic
football game between Negro
colleges in the Orange Bowl
Saturday night suddenly fan
ned out into stores as the
parade proceeded along
Flagler Street, Miami's main
shopping thoroughfare.

"Of course we'll always wor
ry," the source said. "But we
could be worried more than we
are."
If Scott and Broughton
oppose each other, it would be
the first time sons of former
governors have opposed each
other.
the reports, published by two
Saigon newspapers and
another wire service, were
"false." The embassy said it
was "equally false" that U.S.
diplomats had anything to do
with the resignation of Brig.
Gen. Nguyen Ngoc Loan, the
chief of South Vietnam s
national police.
Loan, a central figure in
what is described as a power
struggle between President
Nguyen Van Thieu and Vice
President Nguyen Cao Ky,
resigned Friday , but . , I h e
resignation was not
accepted. - ; r
The police Chief is a strong
supporter of Ky, and there
were reports this week that
Thieu wanted Loan to quit so
that he could be replaced by a
Thieu supporter. Loan wields
considerable power and some
of it devolves on Ky, giving Ky
much more influence than the
constitutional duties he has as
the largely ceremonial vice
president.
The reports of a US-Viet
Cong conference, strongly
denied by the embassy, were
viewed as damaging t o
American efforts toward
getting the Thieu-Ky
government off to a good start.
Thieu and Ky took office Nov.
1, and the official U.S. position
is that the South Vietnamese
government has the primary
responsibility for arranging
any talks with the Viet Cong.
Thieu and Ky have refused
such meetings.
One of the Saigon
newspapers, reported the U.S.
Viet Cong meeting in its rumor
column on Friday. The other
published it Thursday.

not reluctant to talk. They said

pound cake topped by a tier of
fruit cake and will be covered
