Moreover, police found flaws in Matlick's story, particularly his account of driving her to the airport at 6:50 a.m. for a trip to Florida. There were no Florida flights out of O'Hare before 9 a.m.; Mrs. Brach had no reservation with any airline...
Police have questioned Matlick about eleven checks that cleared her bank account after she disappeared, including one for $3,000 that was made out to him.

After such studies, Smith College, for one, kept most of its disputed stock but sold 42,000 shares of Firestone because, says the college, the company failed to give an adequate account of its South African policies. In another approach, the University of Minnesota is pressuring companies directly by introducing resolutions on South Africa at stockholders' meetings...
