Senate Delays Vote on Rehnquist Powell Nominees
The Senate Judiciary Committee delayed a vote on Supreme Court nominees William S. Rehnquist and Lewis F. Powell Jr amid demands for study time and party division. Some members pressed for more information on Rehnquist including his Phoenix poll watcher role, while Powell faced support from some colleagues who sought immediate action. The discussion touched on price control policy and impending post freeze rules, with a focus on rents and regulatory oversight as the Price Commission prepares guidelines.

Dust obscures Mariner 9 Mars camera probe
Dust storms over Mars hindered the Mariner 9 probe’s first images but allowed faint views of Syrtis Major and Hellas through haze. Deimos appeared as a pinpoint, possibly the first spacecraft sighting. Observations suggest the atmosphere may clear after Mariner 9 enters orbit.
