Supreme Court Reverses Washington View on Military Trials
The Supreme Court, in a 5-3 decision, held that soldiers charged with off duty crimes unrelated to military duties may receive civilian trials. The ruling contradicts George Washington’s stance on strict military authority and expands civil protections for service members in nonmilitary cases. The case centered on Sgt. James F. OCallahan, who faced a military trial for an off duty attempted rape in Hawaii. Civil courts were deemed appropriate as the offenses occurred outside military duties and within U.S. territory.

Winona college professor cites Mississippi River pollution
Dr. Calvin R. Flemling of Winona State College says the Mississippi from Minneapolis to Hastings is heavily polluted, likening upper reaches to a sewer. He cites chemicals, excrement, garbage, and other wastes, noting clearer water only after Lake City and that tourism and fishing may be affected. He also mentions Lake Pepin as a settling basin and observes sewer pollution near St. Louis. In Arizona, Frank Borman says he may consider politics but does not foresee running now.
