Senate debates tighter gun control on handguns
In Washington the Senate opened debate on a Bayh bill to ban snub-nosed handguns and bar concealed weapons not for sport. Hart's substitute to outlaw private handgun possession failed 57 to 11. Kennedy's plan to require registration of all firearms and licensing for owners was defeated 78 to 11. The moves follow the May 15 Wallace shooting incident. Bayh framed the bill as removing the weapons used by criminals.
