Drinan Exposes FBI CIA Files For $8.10 On FOIA Request
Representative Robert F. Drinan, a Massachusetts Democrat and priest, paid $8.10 to review FBI and CIA files about him. The packets include newspaper clippings, memos, speeches, and a CIA review alleging domestic spying, with no references to several trips or his Vietnam book. The FBI files span 1958 onward, reflecting Drinan’s civil rights activity and congressional work.

Ruling On Conviction Studied In Maine
A Maine prosecutor said the state is studying a Supreme Court ruling to determine if Stillman Wilbur Jr. should stand trial again for the 1966 beating death of Claude Hebert in Sherbrooke Quebec. Wilbur’s murder conviction was struck down, with potential retrial on murder or manslaughter. Powell's opinion emphasizes burden on the prosecution to prove murder beyond a reasonable doubt.

Medical School Bill Moves to Money Table in Maine
In Augusta lawmakers backed a $300,000 for a University of Maine medical school as the bill survived a late bid to kill it. The measure heads back to the Senate for enactment with funding decisions likely in the final week of the session. Supporters cite rural doctor shortages while opponents fear costs and Maine residency of graduates. The bill has House approval and Gov Longley proposed $190,000 for medical education. Other Maine actions include environmental hearings limits by the Civil Liberties Union and a compromise on abolishing the Executive Council with a 15 member confirmation panel proposed.
