and congressmen also will be

Despite her grief, Mrs. King
left the city Monday and flew
to Memphis where she led a
march in support of sanitation
workers who are striking for
higher wages and an end to
the alleged discrimination that
is directed against them.
It was this march that cost
King his He. King had led
a protest march in Memphis
a week before his death, but
it erupted in violence. This,
he felt, cast doubt .on his abili
ty to lead a peaceful protest,
so he returned to the city
to le'ad another march the
one his wife finally finished

Allied Troops Push
Fortress Recapture
SAIGON (UPD Brig. Gen.
Oscar Davis of the U.S. 1st .
Cavlary Division said Monday
North Vietnamese troops
trying to escape an allied jug
gernaut in the Khe Sanh area
were "pretty well doomed."
The U.S. command said 60
Communists had been killed
in a week of fighting and that
the toll was rising.
As Davis spoke from his
headquarters inside Khe Sanh,
about 1,000 South Vietnamese
troops moving out of the
fortress under heavy U.S.
artillery cover pushed toward
Lang Vei to recapture the
"Green Beret" outpost overrun
by North Vietnamese tanks
and inantry trhee months
ago.
The South Vietnamese col
umns moving toward Lang Vei
three miles southwest of Khe
Sanh reported killing 80North
Vietnamese, finding the bodies
of 71 more and taking five
prisoners.
The fall of Lang Vei in early
January opened a gaint hole
in allied defenses along the
Laotian border, and permitted
Communist commanders to
pour thousands of troops and
tons of war material into South
Vietnam for the siege of Khe
Sanh. The siege began Jan.
21, and the a 1 1 i e s finally
lifted dt Saturday with Opera
tion Pegasus.
Through midnight
U.S. losses in Operation
Pegasus were placed at 59
killed and 427 wounded. This
included 31 Army men killed
and 28 Marines killed, and 162
Army men wounded and 265
Marines wounded.
The push against the Com
munist survivors of Pegasus
coincided with an intensification.
said during an appearance on
XBC's "Today" Show.
"We hope he'll be under ar
rest quite soon. The focus is
sharpening and we are quite
close, we think, but that
depends on how some of the
leads we have develop," Clark
explained.
Piecing together the crime,
police theorize that the
assassin stood in a slimy
bathtub in a flophouse across
the street from King's hotel
and rested the murder weapon
the window sill.
The woman who runs the
flophouse described the
suspect as a neatly-dressed
young man an unlikely can
didate for the $8.50-a-week
room he rented.
It had been publicized in
advance that King would stay
in the Lorraine Hotel-Motel
while he was in Memphis last
Thursday to lead a march for
striking sanitation workers,
but this information wasn't
enough.
The Lorraine is a large,
many sided structure and in
order to map any sort of a
plan, the killer also had to
know King's room number. A
striking ooint in the in-
Sunday, vestigation is that the windows
of the rooming house on the
side facing the Lorraine cannot "
be seen from the . street, the
view being blocked by a high
wall and a growth of peach
trees.
On the other hand, there
are several other old hotels
easily in sight of the Lorraine,
but further away.
Authorities believe the killer
parked his car, possibly a
white Mustang, directly in
front of the rooming house
and walked quickly to it, only
to find that someone had park
ed too close to him and that
he couldn't squeeze through
between the bumpers.
Instead, police' theorize, he
had to walk around the second
car, and in so doing, spotted
one of the many police cars
that were speeding to the
scene.
He ducked into the doorway
of an amusements company,
police said, and was seen by
the operator of the store, Guy
Canipe, who quickly moved to
the rear of the building.
"I saw him drop the rifle,
but I didn't go out," said
Camipe. "If you had seen a
man drop a rifle in your
doorway, what would you have
done."
TOKYO (UPI) North Viet
nam repeated its warning
Monday that proposed
Washington-Hanoi peace con
tacts must involve n o
bargaining" but only
discussion on a total halt to
U.S. bombing and "all other
acts of war."
Radio Hanoi said a North
Vietnam delegate on the am
bassadorial level was willing
to meet with U.S. represen
tatives at Phnom Penh, Cam
bodia, or "any other mutually
agreeable city."
Prince Norodom Sihanouk of
Cambodia promptly announced
Hanoi had "chosen" his
neutral capital as the site. He
did not clarify whether he was
referred to the broadcast or
if he had had a direct request
from Hanoi.
Radio Hanoi said an un
conditional halt to the air at
tacks was a prerequisite to
any formal full scale peace
conference.
The broadcast, involving in
terviews of North Vietnamese
leaders by Charles Coll
ingwood, correspondent for the
Columbia Broadcasting
System, was monitored in
Tokyo amid Communist claims
of total victory.
Diplomats in London said
Peking was putting heavy
pressure on the North Viet
namese regime to continue the
battle "to the bitter end." Pek
ing insisted military victory
was near for the Communists,
the diplomats said.

Big. This year even bigger. Some Chevrolet Tri
Levels are longer. Some wider. Some with more
cargo room. Size up Impala. Nothing in its field
comes as big. For instance, in many others you
wouldn't dare try laying a 4 x 8-foot mirror flat in the
main cargo level. (Especially if you're superstitious.)
In Impala, no problem. The hidden storage compart
ment on the lower level also takes more of your gear
than any of them. The roof rack you order should
take care of the rest. For your comfort, there's extra
hip and shoulder room.
We make our Tri-Levels lots more attractive in other
ways, too. With such exclusives in Chevrolet's field
as an ignition warning system. You'll get a buzz out
of it if you ever leave your key in the switch. There
are rocker panels that clean themselves with every
shower you go through. Inner fenders that protect
the outer ones from rust. And hidden windshield
wipers on many models. Even with all these advan
tages, Impala and Chevelle Concours are the lowest
priced luxury wagons in their fields. And if that's
what you like to hear, hear this. Unprecedented
savings are yours now at your Chevrolet dealer's
'68 Savings Explo. See the details below.
