Our opinion notes the cost of federal investigations, citing the Dugway Proving Grounds nerve gas incident and the $371,685 paid to sheep owners plus $464,850 for the investigation itself. It mocks the idea of investigating investigators while lamenting government spending and public trust.
A Corry Evening Journal column quotes a public mood of national unease over Vietnam, inflation, crime, and housing. It contrasts a wealthier nation with a sense of powerlessness, citing labor strife, youth disaffection, and rising living costs. The piece also notes press-government friction surrounding air raids reports and Kissinger’s disputed role.
Kissinger recalls telling the Times not to publish numbers on air raids and offering Pentagon help to obtain facts while stressing military sources should speak. He notes Hanoi first announced the raids and cites intelligence on Soviet pilots in Egypt and casualties among Russian advisers. The piece links Soviet involvement to widening Middle East conflict and U.S. policy deeper into wars.
New York AP notes that show business awards drive big audiences for the Oscar Emmy and Tony programs. The piece blends humor about women with commentary on fashion while detailing how award ceremonies attract star gazing and public attention.
The Oscar Emmy Show within the industry and its ritual of sealed envelopes yields thank-you drama. Four of the forty five Grammy awards were handed out recently during NBC’s Thursday hour, signaling a shift away from typical award show clichés.
Local events include a family party honoring Janet Auer and F B Sullivan on birthdays, a school variety show for Loveland Field fund, a Bainbridge race with Cliff Buexink’s cars, and a failed plan to suspend Corry Hospital Training School for Nurses. The National Academy awards featured the Fifth Dimension winning Record of the Year amid varied performances.
