Gen. William C. Westmoreland 59, retired Army chief, plans a party decision on running for governor of South Carolina. He travels state panels to spur growth, writes memoirs, and defends wartime choices while hinting at political aims. He stresses public service and recalls Vietnam with mixed views, insisting he could win but noting Democrat and GOP woo.

Hanson named to Blue Cross board in Vermont and New Hampshire
Dean F. Hanson of Hanson-Walbridge Funeral Homes in Bennington and Arlington was named to the Blue Cross board as a public representative, increasing the Vermont seats to 11 on the 27 member board. The resignation of Dr. Robert W. Coon left the Blue Cross Plan Board with no regular physician members, while Dr. Robert P. Darrow serves as ex officio on the Blue Shield Board. Hanson, a licensed pilot and longtime civic officer, replaces Coon and will help oversee a plan serving about 250,000 Vermont members.
