Governor Hodges named W F Babcock to direct the new department of administration and Paul A Johnston as administrative assistant. Babcock brings traffic planning experience from State College and High Point, while Johnston, from Hodges Institute of Government staff, will oversee budgeting with D S Coltrane as head of budgeting.

Japanese trial debated in Girard case amid a US Japan pact
The Girard case tests a May 16 joint US Japan agreement letting Japan try U S troops for on duty acts. Girard shot a Japanese woman during a drill at the Somagahara range north of Tokyo, with prosecutors arguing the act was not on duty. His surrender was delayed by Defense Secretary Wilson to allow a full review, while the Japanese seek jurisdiction and a sentence of two to fifteen years if convicted.
