Boston Bruins, in last place, employ Westfall as a marked man shadowing Bobby Hull of the Chicago Black Hawks to quell his scoring. Hull, top scorer with 82 goals and 55 points in 34 games, is held hitless by Westfall, who neutralizes Hull’s shots and keeps him off balance.

Johnson's State of the Union in dramatic color
President Johnson delivered a two part State of the Union with a color broadcast and floodlights in the chamber. He outlined the Great Society roadmap before turning to Vietnam as he noted Americans at war. Dobrynin studied the speech without visible reaction, while the crowd applauded mainly by tradition. A separate Miami report notes a Cuban exile fisherman saying Soviet dynamite work offshore has chased fish from Cuba’s north coast.

Scaling War First Message From LBJ
President Johnson uses the State of the Union to propose a ten word plan for Viet Nam to scale down fighting without negotiations or a cease fire. He vows to de escalate if the Communists reduce force, signaling a gradual end rather than a formal accord. A reference to declining Viet Cong activity follows with cautious administration optimism. The piece notes an unrelated Britannica fact about soot used in ancient Greece.
