Paroles board a copy of the evidence and information sent to California., but that “it was not given to him.” “They didn’t refuse; they just didn’t give it to me and I didn’t make an issue of it,” he added. “Regardless of what informa tion has been given to them,” said Nance, “the boy is certainly entitled to a hearing before Cali fonia authorities before he is sent back to prison.” Smash Over A Battalion Communists Make Gains In Viet Nam SAIGON, Viet Nam (UPI) — A massive Communist force today smashed more than a battalion of government troops in two daring daylight ambushes at Chuong Tien, southwest of Saigon.
