March 20, 1974...TO MY SCIENTISTS COPY  &#13;
(1) I hope that you were sufficiently impressed...with my recent file to you, complete with photo of UFO, taken at Williamsburg, Virginia. As you know, I am known. The first happening was the giant UFO that appeared over the head of a policeman in Chase City, and stayed there for 15 minutes. Staying there that long was, of course, unusual for a UFO...but it wanted to make sure that the message was clear...that I had communicated with it and requested the happening, and it was delivering. The second happening was the man who took some shots of the sky, evidently on "impulse", with his camera...and when the photos were developed he had a beautiful photo of a UFO. Of course I know that he was "compelled" to take to the sky, in that particular place, at that particular time...so that the UFO's I had communicated with could deliver yet another message. If you do not agree...then consider the odds against anyone pointing a camera up at the clouds and walking away with a perfectly beautiful photo of a UFO in flight! (2) Now to predictions on my part. Last week my UFO's communicated with me and informed me that they had picked up some interesting information...which was that the higher-ups who had maneuvered Nixon into office had secretly decided last week to have Nixon murdered...trying to make it look like an accident; plane crash, heart attack, etc., instead of an out-and-out shooting assassination. They have also decided not to allow Vice President Ford to take over as President and continue. But they have not as yet decided on his disposition. These mysterious higher-ups have a new man ready that they intend to insert into the Presidency. The SI's told me that President Nixon would not live past 1976. The higher-ups will see to it... whether Nixon resigns or is impeached or not.&#13;

&#13;
TED OWENS OF CAPE CHARLES, the  &#13;
round man who describes himself as one of  &#13;
the greatest psychics in the world, says he  &#13;
knows where Patricia Hearst is.&#13;
&#13;
How does he know? "Impressions," said  &#13;
Owens.&#13;
&#13;
Eleven days ago, Owens sent a long letter  &#13;
to Patricia Hearst's parents in San Francis-  &#13;
co. He wrote, "Your daughter is being held  &#13;
on a boat south of San Francisco. However,  &#13;
the BGs (Bad Guys) have two other loca-  &#13;
tions where they hide her. They move her  &#13;
from location to location every two days."&#13;
&#13;
If the Hearsts invite him, Owens will  &#13;
drop everything, fly west and use his tal-  &#13;
ents (PK Power, he calls it) to assist in the  &#13;
search for Miss Hearst. The Hearsts'  &#13;
20-year-old daughter was kidnapped more  &#13;
than three weeks ago by members of the  &#13;
Symbionese Liberation Army.&#13;
&#13;
Letter and telegram&#13;
&#13;
In that letter of Feb. 13 and a telegram,  &#13;
which he sent two days earlier, Owens  &#13;
urged the Hearsts to turn to people who are  &#13;
good at psychometry. That is the ability to  &#13;
touch things (toys, clothing, jewelry etc.)  &#13;
and divine facts about the people who own  &#13;
these things. (In Saratoga Springs, N.Y.,  &#13;
Mrs. Joanne Tomchick was reunited with  &#13;
her two daughters earlier this week with  &#13;
the help of a psychic who used psychome-  &#13;
try).&#13;
&#13;
Said Owens, "I'd like to see a team of top  &#13;
psychics including Peter Hurkos, Jeane  &#13;
Dixon, myself and others assemble in San  &#13;
Francisco to get impressions."&#13;
&#13;
"And if these impressions and predictions&#13;
&#13;
"I'm the greatest," he insists, puffing on  &#13;
a cigar.&#13;
&#13;
"I have been picking up things from the  &#13;
Symbionese minds. When I read minds, dis-  &#13;
tance and time are no barriers at all."&#13;
&#13;
Moving around&#13;
&#13;
Filling in details of Miss Hearst's captivi-  &#13;
ty, Owens told me "The second location  &#13;
where she is being held is east of the boat I  &#13;
mentioned. Inland. It's a ranch or farm.  &#13;
There are chickens, livestock. From there,  &#13;
she is moved to San Francisco. To China-  &#13;
town. To a basement-type place in a run-  &#13;
down area. They have been using a laundry  &#13;
truck to transport her.&#13;
&#13;
"It's a triangular pattern of movement  &#13;
from boat to farm and then up to the San  &#13;
Francisco location. The main man holding  &#13;
her is a foreigner from the Mideast, I be-  &#13;
lieve. In the past he has been connected  &#13;
with airports and murders. Plane hijack-  &#13;
ings."&#13;
&#13;
Owens' vibrations tell him that the  &#13;
Hearst girl is in great danger. "The main  &#13;
man would like to murder her so that the  &#13;
next targets of his kidnapping would be gen-  &#13;
uinely terrified. But another man in the  &#13;
army has a plan to smuggle the girl out of  &#13;
the U.S. by boat, down the coast to Central  &#13;
America. Maybe Costa Rica.&#13;
&#13;
"My impression of the Symbionese leader  &#13;
is that he is short, about 5-5, has a dusky  &#13;
complexion, has a moustache, has a high  &#13;
IQ, is fanatical, trained in guerrilla warfare,  &#13;
arms handling and assassination."&#13;
&#13;
Owens said there is no connection be-  &#13;
tween the Hearst kidnapping and the abduc-  &#13;
tion of an editor in Atlanta last week.&#13;
&#13;
Although he is 3,000 miles away from the  &#13;
kidnappers of Miss Hearst, Owens says he  &#13;
is receiving the thoughts of the Symbionese  &#13;
loud and clear. "They plan to hijack a half  &#13;
dozen airliners at once. They will use no  &#13;
weapons. Their plan is to kidnap the presi-  &#13;
dent of six major airlines and their families  &#13;
and order these men to turn over planes to  &#13;
the Symbionese Army."&#13;
&#13;
Bad vibrations&#13;
&#13;
Owens did not say what the terrorists  &#13;
plan to do with the six airliners.&#13;
&#13;
Is Patricia Hearst alive? Owens hesitated  &#13;
and said, "Even for a psychic like me, it  &#13;
is hard to tell now. She has been in great,  &#13;
great danger. I feel like, well, I feel like  &#13;
the cutthroats have the edge in that army.&#13;

ginia House of Delegates Com-  &#13;
mittee today approved and sent  &#13;
to the House for full debate a  &#13;
bill to raise the state's minimum  &#13;
wage level from $1.60 to $1.87 a  &#13;
hour.  &#13;
The House Labor and Com-  &#13;
merce Committee approved the  &#13;
bill after representatives of the  &#13;
Virginia Manufacturers Associ-  &#13;
ation and the Virginia AFL-CIO  &#13;
voiced their support.  &#13;
The two organizations, one  &#13;
reflecting management, the  &#13;
other labor, agree so seldom  &#13;
that Jollan S. Carper, president  &#13;
of the Virginia AFL-CIO, told  &#13;
the committee, "This is the  &#13;
second time this session the  &#13;
Virginia Manufacturers Associ-  &#13;
ation and the AFL-CIO have  &#13;
been in wholehearted agree-  &#13;
ment."&#13;
&#13;
Committee member Richard  &#13;
M. Bagley, D-Hampton, could  &#13;
not resist smiling as he said,  &#13;
"In that case, God save the  &#13;
Commonwealth."&#13;
&#13;
The committee also approved  &#13;
a bill sponsored by Sen. Stanley  &#13;
S. Bendheim, D-Alexandria,  &#13;
that would ease the way for lo-  &#13;
calities who find themselves  &#13;
taking over private transit  &#13;
companies to get federal funds.  &#13;
Bendheim said the bill simply  &#13;
spells out rights of employees of  &#13;
the private company when a lo-  &#13;
cality takes over operations.&#13;
&#13;
This is necessary, Bendheim  &#13;
said, for the local governing  &#13;
bodies to qualify for funds avail-  &#13;
able under the federal Urban  &#13;
Mass Transportation Act.&#13;

&#13;
Letter and telegram&#13;
&#13;
In that letter of Feb. 13 and a telegram, which he sent two days earlier, Owens urged the Hearsts to turn to people who are good at psychometry. That is the ability to touch things (toys, clothing, jewelry etc.) and divine facts about the people who own these things. (In Saratoga Springs, N.Y., Mrs. Joanne Tomchick was reunited with her two daughters earlier this week with the help of a psychic who used psychometry).&#13;
&#13;
Said Owens, "I'd like to see a team of top psychics including Peter Hurkos, Jeane Dixon, myself and others assemble in San Francisco to get impressions.&#13;
&#13;
"And if these impressions and predictions were coordinated by the police and FBI, it would give the Hearsts information they would not get otherwise."&#13;
&#13;
The Hearst family has not replied to Owens.&#13;
&#13;
Owens claims to be half man, half space intelligence. According to Owens, his abilities in psychokinesis (mind over matter) and extrasensory perception are the blessings of creatures from the cosmos. He has a pretty good record in predicting storms, earthquakes, pro football upsets, collisions of ships at sea and, once in a while, an assassination.&#13;
&#13;
filling in details of Miss Hearst's captivity, Owens told me "The second location where she is being held is east of the boat I mentioned. Inland. It's a ranch or farm. There are chickens, livestock. From there, she is moved to San Francisco. To Chinatown. To a basement-type place in a rundown area. They have been using a laundry truck to transport her.&#13;
&#13;
"It's a triangular pattern of movement from boat to farm and then up to the San Francisco location. The main man holding her is a foreigner from the Mideast, I believe. In the past he has been connected with airports and murders. Plane hijackings."&#13;
&#13;
Owens' vibrations tell him that the Hearst girl is in great danger. "The main man would like to murder her so that the next targets of his kidnapping would be genuinely terrified. But another man in the army has a plan to smuggle the girl out of the U.S. by boat, down the coast to Central America. Maybe Costa Rica.&#13;
&#13;
"My impression of the Symbionese leader is that he is short, about 5-5, has a dusky complexion, has a moustache, has a high IQ, is fanatical, trained in guerrilla warfare, arms handling and assassination."&#13;
&#13;

&#13;
Is Patricia Hearst alive? Owens hesitated and said, "Even for a psychic like me, it is hard to tell now. She has been in great, great danger. I feel like, well, I feel like the cutthroats have the edge in that army. She is scared witless. She is in poor shape."&#13;
&#13;
This is one time when Owens, who has been proclaimed a super psychic by Saga Magazines and other publications, hopes he is all wrong.&#13;
&#13;
If the Hearsts want him, Owens is near his phone over there on Eastern Shore, puffing away on a cigar and practicing psychokinesis and other things.&#13;
&#13;
ation and the Virginia AFL-CIO voiced their support.&#13;
&#13;
The two organizations, reflecting management, labor, agree so solidly that Julian S. Carper, president of the Virginia AFL-CIO, told the committee, "This is the second time this session the Virginia Manufacturers Association and the AFL-CIO have been in wholehearted agreement."&#13;
&#13;
Committee member Picha M. Bagley, D-Hampton, could not resist smiling as he said, "In that case, God save the Commonwealth."&#13;
&#13;
The committee also approved a bill sponsored by Sen. Leroy S. Bendheim, D-Alexandria, that would ease the way for localities who find themselves taking over private transportation companies to get federal funds.&#13;
&#13;
Bendheim said the bill simply spells out rights of employees of the private company when a locality takes over operations.&#13;
&#13;
This is necessary, Bendheim said, for the local governing bodies to qualify for funds available under the federal Urban Mass Transportation Act.&#13;
&#13;
It does not bind localities to terms of labor contracts already in force, Bendheim responded when Del. Stanley C. Bryan, D-Chesapeake, asked.&#13;

&#13;
VERACRUZ, Mexico (AP) Four bodies have been recovered and 39 men are missing following the sinking of a Mexican navy tug in the Gulf of Mexico Monday, officials said today.&#13;
&#13;
Navy officials said only three survivors were pulled from waters 60 miles off Veracruz. Boats, planes and helicopters were searching for survivors, authorities said.&#13;
&#13;
Authorities said many of the missing crewmen may have reached the coast on the two liferafts and not been found because of the mountainous rain.&#13;
