.....G. GORDON LIDDY FRAUD CASE
G. Gordon Liddy, of Watergate fame, was recently involved in
ta da TAX COURT. It seems he didn't pay taxes on the money he
received for his part in the break-in at the hotel.
The I.R.S. decided that $45,000 of the $375,000 was taxable
to him and that he committed fraud by not reporting said money.
They also said that Liddy's background, his publicly flaunted
"grotesque" morality and destruction of records was proof of his
fraudulent intent.
The court said "In a rather odd twist, Liddy's testimony was
all the more believable and plausible by reason of his bizarre
view of right and wrong.
Is the court nuts you ask? No. In fraud cases, intent to de-
fraud must be proven. It is easy to see how the I.R.S. could
look at the career of Mr. Liddy and see nothing but a lifetime
dedicated to fraudulent acts, the court decided. But, put simply,
Mr. Liddy did not know the difference between right and wrong and
it would be unjust to hold him accountable for this crime that
required an intent to deceive.
The court found him innocent.

.....UNDERWATER HUM IS AN ENIGMA -- story of the week--
A strange underwater hum is driving a houseboat marina crazy. "It's
like a electric razor noise, only 10 or 15 times louder," said
harbormaster Ted Rose. " The noise is coming through the water and
people are picking it up in the concrete houseboat hulls."
The harbormaster got a call from the Navy at Puget Sound and
they have exactly the same frequency level as we do - 58 hertz.
The hum starts in the summer and comes only at night starting
about 9 or 9:15 p.m. and stops at 6:00 a.m. The Sausalito hum is
louder this year than ever before. It has been heard for a decade.
Rose said the Navy must be interested in the noise because they
have asked for all the information collected sofar on the local
phenomenon.

.....A BIZARRE EPISODE FOR TWA FLIGHT 847 (Newsweek)
An oil-company credit card was at the center of what TWA Capt.
John Testrake describes as "the most bizarre episode" of the recent
Flight 847 hijacking. During its first stop at Algiers the hijackers
demanded that the plane be filled up. Airport officials refused saying
"You don't have a charge account here; we're not going to put any fuel
in the plane."
After a long delay a fuel truck pulled up and started putting
fuel into the craft. One of the ground crew walked around to a open
cockpit window and started shouting for a Shell credit card. A crew
member, Uli Derickson, tossed down her Shell card and was promptly
charged for 6000 gallons of fuel.
When the plane returned a second time the entire sequence was
repeated and they wanted her card again. "You've still got it,"
shouted Testrake.
In all $11,000 worth of fuel was charged to Derickson's Shell
credit card. TWA said that they will pay the bill.
