Maine Medical School Debate Hangs On Governor Decision
Gov James Longley will decide today whether to sign or veto a bill authorizing the University of Maine to create a medical school. Doctors split on cost, but a group named Physicians For A Maine Medical School pledges at least 100000 dollars in private funding to supplement state funds. Supporters argue rural shortages demand action while opponents warn about inflationary costs and timing. The legislature approved the plan, and a veto could prompt an override to meet state medical needs soon.

Washington's small shadow in a large national glare
After six months away from Washington the observer finds the capital barely matters to the daily woes of America. He notes rising costs, job loss, crime, and failed infrastructure while Washington clings to its own myth of influence, distrusting the governed and inflating its own importance. Only Ford Kissinger and Kennedy seem globally relevant, with others fading into ceremonial dullness as citizens grow weary of political theater.
