Free drug program for Maine elderly faces study
In Augusta, pharmaceutical firms donated 40000 to fund a free drug plan for about 15000 low income seniors, but Human Services Commissioner David E. Smith will run a computer study to see if the funds suffice. He warns the total annual cost would reach hundreds of thousands or more, with Medicaid expansion as an alternative to broaden coverage.

Communists denied request to hasten Jalbert action
In Portland Maine Superior Court Justice Sumner Goffin denied the Communist party a temporary restraining order and refused to fast track Rep Louis Jalbert's challenge to the party's presidential petitions. The court ruled the party failed to show definite harm from the Secretary of State extending the deadline to August 20 to present evidence. The suit, filed by Murrough O Brien for the party with the Maine Civil Liberties Union, argued the challenge could not be resolved in time for ballot printing.

Court voids Maine milk price orders over investigation flaws
Superior Court Justice Harry P. Glassman voided the Maine Milk Commission January and February price orders for failing to meet investigation requirements. The ruling lets the commission base prices on its 1975 order while urging adjustments for public welfare and market conditions. Cumberland Farms challenged the process, arguing for lower dealer prices, while the judge barred fixing prices at the absolute lowest level.
