Sirhan Charged With Murder in Kennedy Killing
Sirhan Bishara Sirhan was arraigned on a murder charge in Los Angeles in a heavily guarded chapel setting. The 24 year old Jordanian native faced a grand jury indictment accusing him of fatally shooting Senator Robert F. Kennedy as Kennedy celebrated his California primary victory. The judge ordered psych examinations, a plea date of June 28, and strict courtroom security to protect Sirhan’s right to a fair trial.

Chuckle Says Nobody Disagrees Proves Brilliance
A quip notes that not disagreeing may not prove brilliance and suggests self view as boss. The remark plays on vanity and authority in a light social media style. It reflects a sharp-witted, tongue in cheek take on confidence and leadership.

Crematory Permit Is Revoked in Cemetery Dispute
Saco Zoning Board of Appeals ruled the Laurel Hill Cemetery Association cannot obtain a crematory permit from the building inspector for Beach Street cemetery property in an A-2 zone. The board said only the appeals board may approve cemetery building permits and indicated the association can reapply, then seek review. The decision followed a public hearing on the May 8 permit issued by Inspector Richard Braley. Residents of Promenade Avenue adjacent to the cemetery led the appeal.

Back To The Ivies Would That Be Bad For Football
In New Haven AP reports that spiraling college athletics costs could push big time football back toward Ivy League status. The Ivies limit scholarships and practice, emphasize amateurism, and mainly play within their circle while still courting stronger rivals. Yale notes football as social, not madness, with stars like Brian Dowling and Cal Hill. Ivy rules restrict bowls and grant aid, yet Yale maintains a million dollar athletic budget with extensive programs and high entrance standards.
