Japanese correspondents in the. North Vietnamese capital reported of people gathered around the Ba Dinh Palace in Hanoi mourning the death of their 79-year-old president.

According to the New China News Agency, Chou and his entourage went straight from the airport to the palace and laid a wreath of flowers beneath the portrait, lined in black ribbons. Ho had carefully walked the middle of the road in the Sino- Soviet feud, accepting arms from both Communist giants but favoring neither in their confrontation. The top three or four men he left to rule the nation were reported somewhat divided 1 on whether to turn to Moscow or Peking, and both Kosygin and Chou were expected to court their favor in the coming days. Eulogies to Ho arrived from Communist and non-Communist nations alike, with many of his supporters in the Vitnam War urging the new leadership to press on with their battle against America. In Paris, a source close to the Allied peace talks delegations said the North Vietnamese could be expected to flaunt a harder line in the coming weeks to demonstrate how they, can get along without Ho.

Included in the project will be an additional 12 acute beds, bringing the total acute beds to 60.

This will include an intensive and coronary care unit and a new surgery suite, along with, ancillary services. The plans caE for 30 extended care beds, plus a 30-bed rehabilitation unit, and physical therapy department. Also, a new public health department and physician office building would be provided. The doctors' building would be paid for separately from the hospital through a lease agreement. At least one-third of the project would come from federal funds.

The remainder will be raised locally and through a bond issue, if the project is accepted. Richard J. Reichow, hospital administrator, said that in order to provide the community with quality medical care and to maintain an adequate general hospital, complete comprehensive services must be made available.

Nolan A. Hibner pointed out that Monticello has one less practicing physician now than it had in 1956, and there has also been a decline in outlying areas.

Crew Killed In Flaming B-52 Crash LIMESTONE, Maine All seven crewmen were killed Thursday night when a B52 bomber crashed in a ball of flame in the rugged wilderness near the Canadian border. All the bodies were recovered.

The plane, the Air Force's major long-range bomber, crashed after takeoff from Loring Air Force Base three miles away. The crash ignited a bright glow that could be seen for 30 miles. The crew contained six men on a training flight and one military observer. A spokesman for the 8th Air Foree at Westover Air Base in Chicopee, which controls the 42nd Bomb Wing to which the B52 was attached, said there "defeinitely were not" any nuclear weapons aboard. Search efforts were severely hampered by the dense and swampy terrain in the Butterfield Lake area.

One observer who had been at the scene said some of the 50-jnan search party were in water up to their waist. He said the plane was a charred ruin and occasional flames could still be seen. The area is known locally as a fisherman's paradise and a state police official said the area was "rough country without any roads." The B52 crashed at 9:38 p.m., an Aif Force spokesman said. Rescue teams did not reach the crash site until 1:15 a.m. They were still trying to bulldoze a path for ambulances- and fire trucks three hours later.
