Supreme Court expands police search powers in arrest cases
The Supreme Court, in a 6 to 3 ruling, allows police to conduct a full search of anyone lawfully arrested, overturning a Circuit decision that limited searches to a put down search. The heroin found in a cigarette package during a District of Columbia man’s arrest could be used as evidence. Justice Rehnquist wrote the majority opinion with Justices Marshall Brennan and Douglas dissenting.

Bright spots amid energy gloom lift spirits and markets
The AP reports a small rise in the stock market as oil embargo fears ease. The Petroleum Industry Research Foundation says U.S. fuel shortages in early 1974 may be less severe than feared, with an estimate of up to 2.8 million barrels daily versus 3.5 million. Saudi minister al Yamani says embargo could end early next month if Israel withdraws from occupied lands. Congress moves to label energy consuming products and study reduced gasoline engines while DST legislation aims to save electricity.

Faculty raises top priority for Kansas colleges crisis
Kansas student leaders told Gov Docking that without substantial faculty salary hikes the state colleges face a faculty crisis and ongoing enrollment losses. They urged funding for well rounded programs beyond athletics and supported a waiver of student activity fees to bolster the programs and attract students. The group cited 11 leaders after a Cedar Crest dinner as saying faculty pay rises are the top issue for the 1974 session. Budget figures vary with 5 percent recommended by Budget Director James Bibb and 10 to 11 percent sought by the regents.
