Buy a round-trip ticket with the required fixed return date, then pay the airlineâs penalty to change your return when you finally decide on a date. That can cost an extra fee up to $150 (or more on some international tickets), but it may still be the best option.
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif., Aug. 1 (AP) Strother Martin, the actor who played grizzled sourdoughs in 30 years of westerns and who was perhaps best known as the prison warden in Cool Hand Luke in 1967, died after suffering a heart attack early today, the Ventura County deputy coroner said. Mr. Martin was 61 years old and lived here.
When Luke Jackson is arrested for drunkenly vandalizing parking meters, he is sentenced to serve time on a prison chain gang. Although the warden, guards and prisoners all try to break Luke's spirit upon his arrival, it soon becomes clear that Luke is not about to play by anyone else's rules. He eventually earns the respect of his fellow inmates by refusing to back down in a fight, and he earns their friendship by figuring out a way for them to get their hard labor done in half the time.
