SOME PERSONS RAISED
gypstinns as tn whether_Frank
Rinaldi’s defense attorney, Barry
Winston, could represent his cli
ent in the Chapel Hill Recorder’s
Court, thinking that Winston was
still in Uw practice with Judge
William S. Stewart and his part
ner, Robert Midgette. Few knew
that Winston quietly hung out
his, own shingle in Carrboro re
cently after officially leaving the
Stewart and Midgette firm on
Dec. 1. He’d been,an associate
and partner with them for the
past year and a half, coming
there from a year in Atlanta af
ter finishing law school at the
University here.
MR. AND MRS. ROSS PORTER
of Hillsborough are being trans
ferred from Cambodia to Iran,
according to information just re
ceived by relatives herd. Mr. Por
ter, nationally known in the field
of hospital administration, has
been a member of the United
States mission in Cambodia for
over a year and it is assumed
the transfer is connected with
the embattled-' country’s recent
refusal of further U. S. Foreign
aid. Mr. Porter is a former ad
ministrator of Duke Hospital and
a former member of the Orange
County Board^f Education.
