In Minnesota, the House and Senate planned a brief session to adopt a memorial for Lyndon Johnson as Nixon declared a national day of mourning. The House Rules Committee’s split vote approved hiring Richard Nolan as state federal coordinator amid Conservative protests, with Nolan outlining a 1974 bid against Rep. Zwach. Nolan, 29, noted two terms in the Legislature and Washington staff work. He would earn about 7000 annually under a two year deal, with Senate talks ongoing.
