Return: A roster of pathos
SAN ANTONIO Texas AP On the surface the return is a roster of pathos. An Air Force colonel with a wounded arm and a hospitalized wife. An Army captain with blistered feet and weight loss fretting over his wife. An Air Force captain who may have spoken to captors to reassure family he is alive. An Army sergeant who called a wooden cage a home. Four veterans in military hospitals after POW release in North and South Vietnam. Col. James Lamar thanks Nixon for the day.

Arkansas House OKs mandatory school self insurance plan
The Arkansas House approved a mandatory self insurance program for elementary and secondary schools by a 72 to 14 vote, to start July 1, 1976. It would require all districts to participate with a $2 million state loan and rates set by the Board of Education, but opponents warned it intrudes on private enterprise. The Senate kept several appropriation bills in limbo amid a fight over city and county funds. In other action, the House passed a bill to allow full banking services at branch offices, despite concerns it could hinder new bank charters.
