Hunt for missing bishop Pike widens in Judean desert
The wife of James A. Pike described their Sunday ordeal as Israeli soldiers and police searched the Judean wilderness for the missing former Episcopal bishop of California. Pike, 56, and his wife Diane were in a rented car near Bethlehem when it stuck on rocks. He walked ahead, later suffering leg pains and telling her to continue. She said he remained atop a small mountain west of the Dead Sea after resting, while authorities and Bedouin tribesmen questioned locals about Pike’s whereabouts amid hopes he may still be alive in nearby caves. Officials found a map in the car leading toward the Dead Sea and Pike’s wallet and passport earlier.

Nixon Plans Random Draft Lottery System
President Nixon plans to set up a randomized draft selection unilaterally amid stalled congressional action. An executive order to direct the Selective Service would begin drafting the youngest men, likely 19 year olds, while ensuring monthly quotas differ by birth dates. In the transition year, those over 20 and under 26 join the 19 year olds, and deferments for college graduates shift them into the prime group to face possible conscription.
