Additional Judge In State Doubtful
WASILINGTOON July 96 Opposite actions by the house and senate left the possible appointment of an extra federal district judge in Oklahoma in doubt. The senate passed an omnibus bill with the Oklahoma provision intact while the house judiciary committee reported a similar measure without the provision. Senators Lee and Thomas noted Oklahoma faces more litigation per judge than the national average. Senator Read opposed the change, calling it a patronage bill for Democrats. Rep. Johnson said he would seek restoration of the Oklahoma clause.

Medics Win Point That Sherman Act Omits Medicine
In Washington on July 26 the federal court held the Sherman act does not apply to medical practice. Justice James M. Proctor sustained demurrers to an indictment targeting the American Medical Association and other doctors, saying medicine is a learned profession not a trade. The decision foregoes government charges against 4 medical bodies and 21 doctors in a dispute over Group Health Inc. cooperation in the District of Columbia. The court criticized the indictment as vague and uncertain with some material facts in error.

Watermelon crops yield fair despite drought impact
Early predictions of a bumper watermelon harvest proved overly optimistic as drought reduced the crop, though many county grown melons are now hitting markets.

Phillips planning two short trips after office hours this week, including a stadium dedication in Elk City and a first-ball toss at a local baseball game. In Kentucky, Edward Higgins was executed in the electric chair after being sentenced for murder, while Stillwater officials held an unusual budget session, reportedly consuming two gallons of buttermilk.
