WASHINGTON A smashing Democratic in normally Republican Maine today jolted the GOP and boosted Democratic hopes for a nations! sweep in November.

Gov. Edmund Muskie. first Democratic governor in 20 ears. rolled up an overwhelming margin over his GOP opponent to win reelection easily. It was the first reelection of a Democratic governor in Maine in 22 years, i The Democrats also captured two congressional seats from in- cumbent Republicans, although the Rep.

Robert Hale of Portland was beaten by only a handful of votes in complete but unofficial returns in the first district. The only Republican victory was Rep. Clifford G. Mclntyre's easy win over Kenneth Colbath in I the state's third district. Under its state constitution, Maine elects its governor and mem- i bers of Congress on the second Monday in September.

Air Force weather plane missing since Mon- day when it flew into typhoon Emrna to track the course of the dangerous storm. Sixteen men were aboard the aircraft, a B50 reconnaissance bomber.
