They called the administration a menace to citizens rights and said the government seeks to chill disclosure of government deception. The trial paused over a wiretap dispute after jurors were sworn in, with October set for resumption or instructions.

Regents Trim U of M Building Request And Plan
The University of Minnesota Board of Regents scaled back its biennial building request to about 63.8 million, down from 112.7 million. They cut the law school project to 400 thousand for drawings and withheld funds for a social science complex in Duluth, while keeping Morris and Duluth utility requests. Regents debated priorities and will push for working drawings funds if approved, with other actions including continued nonvoting student representatives and Barbara Knudson named dean of University College. Jupiter moons Callisto and Ganymede outsize Mercury, Titan surpasses them all in diameter.

Rider seeks Indochina pullout rider to tilt foreign aid vote
A House votelooming on a rider ordering U S forces out of Indochina this year could boost chances to defeat a 2.1 billion military foreign aid bill. Leaders forecast a narrow rejection of the war pullout mandate tied to prisoner releases and a ceasefire, with Morgan warning lawmakers to take the aid bill if the rider stays. The Senate has already dismissed Nixon foreign aid requests.
