Senate committee expands panel as wiretap claims surface
The Senate rejected two bids to add a third Republican to a proposed 5 member panel, voting 45 to 35 and 44 to 36. It then approved expanding the panel to seven with four Democrats and three Republicans led by Sen Sam J Ervin Jr. Widespread wiretap claims were raised by GOP leaders Hugh Scott and Barry Goldwater as the White House pledged cooperation if the probe remains nonpartisan. Depositions from Watergate investigations were released, including Maurice Stans admitting funds tied to the burglary were kept in Hugh Sloan Jr.’s campaign safe. Mitchell and Stans had roles in the Nixon re election effort.

Officials warned of widespread delays as the bankrupt railroad, losing about $600,000 daily, seeks payroll cuts by attrition into 1980.

A racial fight broke out before Boca Raton High School reopened. Six Black students were arrested for carrying weapons after shots were fired as they fled past two patrol cars in Delray Beach. Police recovered two shotguns, two pistols, and five knives from their car. The incident followed tense clashes between about 50 Black and 200 white students, part of a series of racial disorders at multiple Florida schools sparked by disputes over Confederate symbols and amplified by spontaneous shouting incidents.
