New Trial Possible For Sirhan
Los Angeles reports that Sirhan B. Sirhan faces a possible retrial for the Robert F. Kennedy assassination as the jurors deadlock on punishment after a first degree murder verdict. After nine hours over two days, seven men and five women split on death by gas chamber versus life, with potential for a hung jury and a new panel. Judge Herbert W. Walker could order a retrial if both sides agree.

Unemployment Drops In Nation's Slums
In early 1969 unemployment in poor urban areas fell to 5.6 percent from 7 percent a year earlier, outpacing the national decline. Officials caution the drop may reflect ongoing training and placement programs rather than broader employment shifts. Nearby, a U.S. Army photographer for Stars and Stripes, Spec. 5 Paul D. Savanuck, 23, of Baltimore, was killed in a North Vietnamese attack near the DMZ.
