State Terms Extended By Top Court
INDIANAPOLIS AP The Indiana Supreme Court reversed a Marion County judge ruling that three statewide officers could only serve two years. Terms for secretary of state treasurer and auditor extend two more years under a 1970 amendment, not subject to the November election. The decision, unanimous, cites a 1950 Hancock County sheriff case. The suit names Gov. Whitcomb and election board members and asks about ballot listings for five offices.

Gary Prepares For First Black Caucus
Gary Indiana AP report on preparations for the nation's first Black Caucus conference set for Friday. Organizers, led by Richard G. Hatcher and City Controller Esse Bell, estimate about 4,200 delegates and 3,000 observers, with lodging in Gary and West Side High School, and a $6,500 venue rent. The agenda centers on shaping positions for future presidential candidates rather than endorsing any. Local leaders aim to mobilize Black voters at the Democratic National Convention, while civic and military groups join a five to six week cleanup effort. Over 2,300 hotel rooms for about 4,638 people are booked, with another 1,130 rooms sought in private homes.
