Moynihan Named Ambassador to India by Nixon
President Nixon nominates Daniel Patrick Moynihan Harvard professor and former adviser as the United States ambassador to India. Moynihan would replace Kenneth B. Keating, who resigned to seek Nixon’s re election. Moynihan says India is important to the U.S. and cites improved talks between Nixon and Indira Gandhi as paving the way for stronger relations. He indicates possible departure for India early 1973 after grading Harvard papers.

Nader Claims DES Used As Morning-After Pill In Colleges
Ralph Nader and his Health Research Group accuse several university health centers of prescribing diethylstilbestrol DES as a post coital contraceptive without informing students of risks. They warn DES raises cancer risk in daughters and is not FDA approved or fully effective within 72 hours. FDA officials say they are investigating and hope to obtain studies from drug firms.

Nixon Attacked Over Lack of Women in Cabinet Posts
A coalition of Eighteen national women's groups criticized President Nixon for not appointing any women to Cabinet or sub-Cabinet roles in his second term. They urged high level female appointments and sought a meeting with the President, noting Jewel Lafontant as the sole woman named so far. Rep. Margaret Heckler voiced disappointment, while aides argued platform promises were not binding and that women have roles of substantial responsibility.
