Senate approves $1.25 million for Olson family in CIA LSD case
The Senate passed a bill to pay $1.25 million to the family of Army chemist Frank Olson who died in 1953 after being given LSD without his knowledge during CIA drug experiments. The bill, backed by Sen. Charles Mathias with White House and Justice backing, moves to the House. Olson's daughter Lisa declined to comment on the vote, while Mathias framed the act as government acknowledgment of deception and a pledge to prevent repeat incidents.

Blind man wins $300 settlement in auto theft case
A 60-year-old man who was blinded when a 16-year-old thief stole a truck and rammed his car received $300 from Standard News Co of Connecticut. Attorney Ivan Schneider said the company was liable because the ignition key was left in place, allowing the boy to start the truck. The theft occurred in Stamford, Connecticut, on September 28, 1974.
