Arraigned in Suffolk Superior Court, Lefty Gilday pleaded innocent to his charges and was immediately ordered to undergo 35 days of observation at Bridgewater State Hospital.

United States Commissioner Tully G. Leomporra reduced bail for Michael Fleshier from $50,000 to $35,000 in Philadelphia today and set an extradition hearing for October 23. Fleshier appeared clean-shaven and with a prison haircut.

According to the Boston Globe, Fleshier extended his forefinger to the press as he left the courtroom. According to the Herald-Traveler. he made an obscene gesture and snarled "Leeches."

Kathy Power asked a friend at Brandies to go on "commando raids" with her in late August, the CRIMSON has learned.

Stanley Bond today told a Herald-Traveler correspondent "I've seen both the girls. There was a meeting somewhere on the West Coast. Both girls and others."

Speaking in his Grand Junction cell, Bond said. "You can tell the parents of both girls that they are very probably safe by now anyway." Bond said the girls were heading toward a specific destination where they will meet with Angela Davis, also a fugitive currently on the FBI ten most wanted list.

In granting the interview, Bond insisted that the Herald-Traveler publish a three page statement he wrote in his cell Thursday night.

Excerpts of the statement follow:

"Poiltics have been an institutionalized form of violence and the political body, the instrument protecting those institutions; it is the body which represents an overt violence, becoming more and more the gun as the institutions themselves are stripped away. Because the institutions of American politics have been challenged in such a way as to force the protecting body to employ the use of nearly every gun at its disposal, anyone wishing to make a political statement against that body had best make it with a gun; the statement itself should be made with a gun, not merely backed up by one...."

"I remain an individual personally motivated toward a political course of action, but one who realizes that his reasons for doing things are very often the reasons for others, and in that cause we join together in action without surrendering the awareness of our separateness from which springs our spirit and from which we derive our sense of freedom...."

The truth emerging here is not that the masses will necessarily succeed in overwhelming wealthy men and nations, but that those men and nations in order to continue their picnic [ sic ] will necessarily subjugate completely or else totally destroy the unmanageable majority of those masses; literally, they will alter the world's reality which is wont, by destroying those who want even a small portion of what the wealthy have."

"The possibility that I should go ahead with my present commitment was increased by virtue of the knowledge of have been [ sic ] criminal in attitude and action at several points in my life. Shortly after first entering prison at the age of 21 I resolved that I would continue my existence if I could not somehow choose to change my attitude in such a way as to allow my life to assume a direction which might accord it a meaning other than criminal; in short, I decided to live my life in a manner that could be understood in its totality by others...."

The FBI today alerted news media to the possibility that they might name another suspect, "a recent Harvard graduate" working in the Boston area, before the night was out. The charging of the suspect never came.

Saturday, October 3:

The trail of suspects Power and Axe has gone cold. Police checked rumors that the girls were in either Providence, Rhode Island, Montreal or British Columbia, Canada. None proved true.

The focus of the search has centered on Kathy Power and Susan Axe, but the focus of the case has now beamed in on one man- Stanley Bond.
