BILLIE L. O'MALLEY

Driver Dies In Bozeman

   BOZEMAN (AP) - Billie L. O'Malley, 53, of Spokane, Wash., was found dead late Thursday night when his car struck a pole in Bozeman. Acting Coroner Alexander Schmall said Friday the death resulted from a heart condition and not the accident.
   Schmall said an autopsy revealed that O'Malley's death was due to aneurism of the aorta.
