In Alaska a massive Air Force search for the missing light plane carrying House Leader Hale Boggs, Rep. Nick Begich, Russell Brown, and pilot Don Jonz continues, with over 2,260 flight hours logged, the longest on record. Divers probe an oil slick near Hawkins Island as crews widen the hunt beyond an intact aircraft.

Auburn seeks large budget hikes for pharmacy and veterinary schools

Auburn University asks the Alabama legislature for a 55 percent budget rise next year and 81 percent the following year to raise faculty salaries at the pharmacy school. A 4 million dollar building fund is deemed insufficient, with alumni gifts and federal funds expected to fill the gap. The plan delays construction to 1975 due to planning and site disputes. Auburn also seeks 44 percent and 12 percent increases for its School of Veterinary Medicine over the next two years to attract staff. The Huntsville medical school reports progress but lacks a dean amid personnel shortages. House Speaker Sage Lyons criticizes the medical college expenditure.
