He really didn’t
want the money
ORLANDO, Fla. (UPI) -
Wilbur John Hunter really
didn't want the SI,BOO he robbed
from the Landmark Bank of
Orlando. According to his
lawyer, all Hunter wanted was
food and shelter, so he waited
in the bank lobby to be
arrested.
It was the second time in less
than a month that Hunter, 52,
Spring Lake Heights, N.J.,
committed a robbery and then
waited to be arrested, police
said.
Hunter’s court-appointed at

said that when his client sought
help from several social service
agencies in Daytona Beach
earlier this year, “they told
him he was too old or too
young, not a drug addict, not
an alcoholic...” and couldn’t
qualify.
Shepherd said Hunter appar
ently wandered without shelter,
food or money after his earlier
release April 8. He said Hunter
told him he slept in the woods
Monday night.
Police said the note given the
bank teller Tuesday demanded
money but made no threat.
Squirrels
invade bases
MONTEREY, Calif. (UPI) -
Squirrels have invaded two big
military bases and the Army
has been unable to mount a
counter-offensive.
The squirrels have burrowed
their way into earth-fill dams,
under an airpstrip and into
ammunition storage buildings
at Fort Hunter-Liggett and
Camp Roberts.
The two World War II vintage
bases are used by the National
Guard, Army Reserve and for
police training.
The Army once used poison
bait against the squirrels, but
in 1971 a presidential order
stopped the practice for ecology
reasons.

FORECAST FOR GRIFFIN AREA—Sunny and warm Saturday. Fair and mfld tonight with
a low in the mid 50s. High tomorrow in low 80s.
Good Friday,
Passover
money lack
Slow campaigns
United Press International
Three things combined to
slow the pace of political pother
today: Good Friday, Passover
and a shortage of campaign
money.
The two religious holidays
undoubtedly would have creat
ed a hiatus in any event over
the Easter-Passover weekend.
But the fact is that for most
candidates right now the
financial income is a trickle
and the outgo is a flood. It
tends to make them welcome
an excuse to slow down for a
few days.
Jimmy Carter was set to
outline his health policies at a
speech (at 11 a.m. EST) and
later a news conference (at
1:30 p.m. EST) in Washington
today, and most of the others
stayed busy through Thursday.
President Ford did no active
campaigning, but he announced
trips to Georgia and Indiana
coming up late next week, and
his press aide, Ron Nessen, had
another go at defusing the
Panama Canal as an issue.
He acknowledged the negotia
tions could lead to eventual
Panamanian control but not for
another 30 to 50 years. He said
failure to write a new treaty
could lead to further anti-
American riots in Panama and
possible confrontation with
other Latin American nations.
Republican challenger Ronald
Reagan wound up three days in
Texas still pounding away at
the canal and other foreign
policy issues, and said he is
“hoping and praying I’ll be
whistling ‘The Eyes of Texas’”
after that state’s primary May
1.
Both Carter and Udall went
after the labor vote that
supposedly favors Jackson, in
Pennsylvania Thursday, while
Jackson himself spent hours on
the telephone in fund-raising
efforts from Philadelphia.
The crucial Keystone Statens
primary is April 27.
Meanwhile a Gallup poll
showed Carter and Hubert
Humphrey virtually tied among
Democrats and widening their
Barry
flew it
first
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
Air Force may have yielded to
a little polite blackmail, but it
wasn’t taking any chances of
alienating Sen. Barry Gold
water.
The Arizona Republican, a
member of the Senate Armed
Services Committee, has
become the first person to fly
the new Bl bomber except for
the test pilots who put the
expensive new plane through its
paces.
Scripps-Howard Newspapers
reported that Goldwater, a
retired general in the Air Force
reserve, demanded to fly the Bl
before any one else or he would
not support the program, now
up for approval in the Senate.
Goldwater took the controls
for a portion of a test flight
Thursday at Edwards AFB.
lead over other potential
nominees of their party. Carter
had 32 per cent and Humphrey,
a noncandidate at present, 31
per cent. Wallace dropped to 13
per cent, Jackson to 6 and
Udall was unchanged at 5.
Udall was asked about that 5
per cent figure Thursday as he
campaigned at a Fisher body
plant in suburban Pittsburgh.
“Where I can get known, I do
well,” he said. “I’ll be living in
Pennsylvania during the next
week, shaking hands night and
day, visiting plants.”

Another poll, an NBC tele
phone survey of 1,500 voters,
closely paralleled Gallup’s re
sults among the Democrats but
had these additional findings: it
said Ford now leads Reagan 53
to 35 per cent, whereas last
December the President trailed
his challenger slightly.
And it said that if Sen.
Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass.,
entered the Democratic race 42
per cent of those queried would
switch to him while 49 per cent
would not. The rest didn’t
know.
