Judges clash over Alameda County criminal calendar reform
Judge William McGuinness opposes a move to end the master criminal calendar and restore direct calendaring by individual judges. He cites 1964 72 liberal administration flaws, a backlog, and degraded court decorum, contrasting with Court Administrator Andrew Schultz and Russell Cramer's study recommending changes amid a rules committee dispute led by Judge Lionel Wileson.

Mitchell admits sitting in on bugging meetings in Watergate probe
Former Attorney General John Mitchell acknowledged for the first time that he attended meetings last year where bugging and more detailed intelligence against the Democrats were discussed. He refused to cover dates or participants, reiterated he had no prior knowledge of the June 1972 Watergate break in, and said reports he aided the plans may be correct. Mitchell, once Nixon's trusted adviser, left the attorney general post in March 1972 to lead the reelection drive. White House counsel John Dean II was also expected to be called in the investigation.
