(UPI) — A Nashville police officer said Wednesday there is no substan tial evidence that missing heiress Patricia Hearst has been in Nashville, but the investigation into the rumor will continue. Detective R. C. Jackson said that reports of Miss Hearst’s presence had signaled a raid on a north Nashville house Tues day night but produced nothing but a good set of fingerprints and a blurred polaroid photo, “which could have been just about anybody in a blonde wig in that light and end up looking like Patty Hearst.” “If we polled all the young women in this area, I’ll bet Cannon rejects union KANNAPOLIS, N.C.

Jackson said the house was a sparsely furnished, run-down single-dwelling in a predomi nately black area. He added that the four people still living in the house, all black, were occupying the house but were in no sense sharing it. Two of the occupants had identified photos of Patricia Hearst, saying she was “Mary Ann” who had lived in the house with a black man for several weeks before the two left in a car bearing Florida license plates perhaps as recently as last Saturday. The white woman seen at the The workers, who cast ballots from 4 a.m. until 9 p.m. at the 16 plants in Cabarrus and Rowan counties, voted against affiliating with the Textile Workers Union of America (TWUA) 8,473 to 6,801.

In San Francisco the FBI agent in charge of the Hearst investigation said that rumors of sighting Miss Hearst come to the bureau constantly from all over the country. “Most of them we check out quickly and find there’s nothing to it. But we’re still running out the possibility,” said Charles W. Bates. Bates said the FBI is discounting the Nashville re ports. Nearly two dozen federal and state criminal charges have The defeat was a major setback for the union which has been able to organize only 12 per cent of the textile industry in the South. “We actually expected to win this election,” union organizer Robert Freeman said after the results were announced shortly before midnight. “There is a degree of uncertainity among all of us now because of the economy and they felt if they rocked the boat now it would be detrimental to them.” Freeman, a former Cannon worker who organized a drive that produced 11,000 pledge cards and led to the election, said they do not not plan to protest the voting unless there is evidence the company violated National Labor Rela tions Board rules. Freeman said the union was “caught up in the middle” of the economic situation. “There’s no doubt in my mind that six weeks ago if we could have had this election we would have won it by at least 80 per cent,” he said. “I’m sure we could have bargained with the company on a decent contract without any kind of strike.” been filed against the daughter of millionaire newspaper editor Randolph Hearst. Miss Hearst has been considered a fugitive from justice since last May when six members of the Symbionese Liberation Army, which abducted her in Feb ruary, died in a Los Angeles shootout with police. Miss Hearst and the only other known SLA members still at large, William and Emily Harris, were not involved in the shootout. While a student at the University of California, Miss Hearst was carried off scream ing from her Berkeley apart ment on Feb. 4.

After the food giveaway was completed, Miss Hearst was involved in an armed bank robbery with the SLA in San Francisco and later announced on a tape recording that she had joined their ranks. The last message from Miss Hearst was on June 8 when a tape recording she and the Harrises made was left outside a Los Angeles radio station. Nashville police said they are questioning people in the area for more descriptions of the woman who allegedly resem bles Miss Hearst. Officers said they hoped the set of finger prints would provide some indication of the fugitive heiress’ presence.
