4) Housing Authority meets tonight. The town deliberative session is tonight's big event, but the Londonderry Housing and Redevelopment Authority is also scheduled to meet at 7:30 p.m. in the Sunnycrest Conference Room at Londonderry Town Hall.

5) On this day in 1974, Patty Hearst, the 19-year-old daughter of newspaper publisher Randolph Hearst, was kidnapped from her apartment in Berkeley, California, by two black men and a white woman, all three of whom were armed. Her fiance, Stephen Weed, was beaten and tied up along with a neighbor who tried to help. Witnesses reported seeing a struggling Hearst being carried away blindfolded, and she was put in the trunk of a car. Neighbors who came out into the street were forced to take cover after the kidnappers fired their guns to cover their escape.
