Boston physician Dr. Kenneth C. Edelin, 36, remains free on appeal after Judge James P. McGuire denied a motion to overturn his February 15 conviction for manslaughter in the death of a fetus during a 1973 elective abortion. Planned Parenthood president Jack Hood Vaughan called the ruling a minor setback in the march toward justice, while supporters vowed continued appeals.

CIA Director William Colby faced sworn questioning as the Senate Intelligence Committee opened its first testimony. Chairman Frank Church said Colby gave a general review of covert operations and would return for further questioning next week amid debate over revealing highly sensitive details to select members only. A prior private meeting with Church and John Tower discussed limiting disclosure. The panel, created to probe the CIA and FBI, holds equal access for all 11 senators. Aris Anagnos criticized Ford for military action in Cambodia as usurping Congress’s war powers.
