Sanford and Son and Flip Wilson top national lists, while Cosby's CBS variety lags. Sidney Poitier and Bill Russell rise in video prominence alongside ongoing trends in westerns and black-oriented films.

The Senate approved a 74.6 billion defense appropriations bill through 1972 and defeated an amendment to cut air bombardment funds in Indo China. A Mathias antiwar amendment restating the 1971 policy passed in 1971 but Nixon later said he was not bound. The chamber also moved to ease KP duties, allowing civilians to relieve kitchen police, in a $60 million shift within the defense budget.
