Ford Denies Israeli Ultimatum and Heads CIA Change Talk
President Ford told reporters there is merit in an advisory panel suggesting a noncareer head for the CIA but has no plans to replace William Colby. He warned that delaying a peace accord could spark unrest and another war, and he rejected Israeli reports of a U.S. ultimatum while endorsing a possible reconvening of the Geneva conference if talks stall.

Supreme Court ends term with rights gains and limits
United States Supreme Court wraps a term with new rights for women and students, limits for minorities, and application of federal price fixing to lawyers. Key rulings include ensuring a defendant can act as his own lawyer if literate and competent, barring warrantless searches at border checkpoints, and expanding student rights while holding boards liable for rights violations. The court also allowed a father to stop supporting a daughter at 18 while supporting a son to 21 and ruled Social Security survivor benefits not withheld from widowers with children. Capital punishment looms as 238 inmates await executions.

The measure preserves existing law, keeps the anti-recession program, and ensures benefits for those not covered by state plans. It also removes a clause affecting the $2,000 tax credit for new home purchasers.
