Koop urges limits on alcohol ads to curb drunken driving
Surgeon General C Everett Koop urged Congress to back stricter alcohol advertising rules and tougher state blood alcohol standards while proposing industry funded health messages with ads. He called for eliminating certain promotional deductions and extending warning labels, though favoured voluntary industry action over bans. He cited Budweisers Spuds MacKenzie and Miller Lite beach parties as examples of ads encouraging risky drinking.

Possible date proposed for Secord trial
Iran-Contra figure Richard Secord may face trial in November or later. Prosecutor Reid Weingarten floated November 13 subject to the court. Judge Aubrey Robinson warned the date depends on declassification issues and no major trial complications. Secord’s attorney Thomas Green cited potential complications over declassifying material for courtroom use. Secord, allied with Oliver North, is charged in two indictments with conspiring and offering illicit gratuities to North to cover up posits from the Iran-Contra affair.
