Supreme Court to review retroactive service record rulings
The Supreme Court agreed to decide whether the 1969 ruling that military courts may try service-connected offenses should have retroactive effect. Two pre 1969 trials, a seaman in 1944 for auto theft and an airman in 1966 for rape, prompted federal suits seeking civilian trials and overturning military convictions. John W. Flemings, an 18-year-old seaman, was arrested in 1944 and court-martialed for auto theft and AWOL, receiving three years and a dishonorable discharge.

Supreme Court Rules Wiretapping Unconstitutional Without Warrant
The Supreme Court ruled that government wiretaps on domestic subversives require judicial approval. Justice Powell stated prior warrants protect privacy and free expression, leaving open issues for foreign powers and the 1968 wiretap statute. The decision also upheld arrest warrants by city court clerks and addressed other actions.
