South Korea Frigate repels North Korea torpedo attack
A South Korean navy frigate repelled a midsea torpedo attack by three North Korean boats off the east coast two miles south of the truce line. The 1200-ton frigate fired back with shelling as the attackers fled in dense fog. No crewmen were hurt and damage was not reported. The incident follows political upheaval after March elections and amid North Korea's demand for UN forces to leave South Korea. Demonstrations in Pusan and Seoul pressed for a new National Assembly and reduced presidential powers.

Rules Urged for Harris County Precinct Conventions
R S Dick Manne, chairman of the Harris County Democratic Executive Committee Rules Committee, urged Saturday precinct convention attendees to study the rules. The rules require secret ballots on votes if requested, protect ballot sanctity, ensure nominating speeches reveal candidates' stands, allow all who wish to nominate, and permit late or on time entrants. Manne notes the rules aim to restore orderly, grass roots participation and reduce past unfair methods.
