His trip here was shrouded in secrecy until well into the night, and there was speculation but no confirmation about his next slop on his trip home from Australia. There was some feeling he would stop at a secure base in South Vietnam and then possibly head for Rome and a private visit with Pope Paul, who called again Friday for a halt in the U.S. bombing of North Vietnam. Johnson sped to this American-built Thai air force base, 120 miles northeast of Bangkok, from Australia, where lie attended memorial services /or the late Prime Minister Harold E. Holt, his Vietnam war ally. POOR SUBSTITUTE Addressing the pilots, the 59- year-old president said: "I realize that an old man is a poor excuse for your wife and your family and your loved ones, but I wanted so much to be with you at Christmas. I want to look eacW or you in the eye." CONSTABLE CHARGED NEW WESTMINSTER <CP)- Burnaby RCMf constable Dar- ryle Splice will appear in m»g- istrate's court here Jan. 16 on a driving charge.
