Marijuana seized at birthday party
NAUGATUCK, Conn.—(UPI)—She had planned her daughter's 17th birthday party for weeks, and, like all mothers, worried that some of the teen-agers might sneak in liquor, drink too much and get boisterous.
By 11 p.m., the party for Donna Dlugookecki was a loud and happy affair and the crowd of 170, mostly uninvited guests, was spread throughout the house and onto the lawn on Woodland Avenue, a prosperous section of town.
Mrs. Leona Dlugokecki, 43, was working in the kitchen. "Every once in a while I would open the door to let out the smoke, it was so heavy," she said. "But I didn't notice anything unusual."
Then, the front door burst open and another daughter, Andrea, 20, standing beside it, was knocked to the floor.
"Is this the way the Naugatuck police department treats young ladies?" she yelled at the men in uniform.
The mother ran in from the kitchen. "I said to the policemen 'What's going on?' What's happening?' They kept saying, 'It's a raid, lady. It's a raid.'" she said.
Mrs. Dlugokecki asked the police what they were looking for and they told her: Marijuana.
"We were worried about liquor, but who would have thought they were smoking marijuana," she said.
A force of 24 local and state policemen staged the raid at 11 p.m. Friday. One policeman said "the inside of that house smelled just like an opium den."
A $ ^{+} $ spokesman for the Nauga-
tuck police department said that quantities of marijuana were found in the house under rugs, behind a radiator, and between the sheets of a bed.
A total of 70 persons were arrested during the raid, mainly on charges of breach of the peace. Robert O. Birdsall, 27, whom Mrs. Dlugokecki said "all the kids love," was charged with violation of the narcotics act and furnishing drugs to minors. Police said Birdsall had been selling it for as much as $20 an ounce.
A policeman said this was "the biggest narcotics raid involving teen-agers ever made in Connecticut."
BEIRUT—(UPI)—Shrouded in secrecy, three U.S. servicemen freed from Viet Cong captivity left by plane today for home and questioning on their experiences in Communist prison camps.
Freed Yank soldiers return to U.S.
A tight net of security covered their moves, but sources said the three Army sergeants left on a Pan American World Airlines plane that was taking them to Washington tonight via Rome, Paris and New York.
They arrived in Beirut Sunday night aboard a Czech airliner from Cambodia, accompanied by an American antiwar activist.
Sgt. James E. Jackson, Talcott, W.Va., was described as "feeling tipsy" after taking his first drink in years aboard the plane. Another, Sgt. Edward Johnson of Seaside, Calif., appeared weak. The third was Sgt. Daniel Lee Pitzer of Spring Lake, N.C.
