Hickel urges guts to set policies beyond politics
Walter J. Hickel returned to Washington and urged President Nixon to have the guts to pursue policies benefiting the American people rather than the Republican party. He criticized the White House staff for influencing policymaking, called for a stronger cabinet, and predicted fiscal policy might improve as focus shifts from foreign to domestic issues.

Deputies Shot in Arizona Repossession Ambush
In Phoenix two sheriff's deputies Warren LaRue and Rex Stone were shot and killed while attempting to repossess a mobile home to satisfy a lien on a car. The shooter, 49 year old Heeler Garcia, died in the exchange after firing on the officers and a truck driver who witnessed the event. Garcia had confronted the deputies as they tried to serve papers, and witnesses said he shot LaRue in the back and wounded Stone before Stone returned fire, killing Garcia. Stone was the father of a slain Phoenix officer who died weeks earlier.
