Fitzsimmons Overhauls Teamsters Pension Board in Stonegate Shakeup
Teamsters President Frank Fitzsimmons announced a new 10 member Central States Pension Fund board, saying the overhaul would streamline the fund but offering no clear answer on whether any old trustees were ousted. He defended loans to Las Vegas casinos, claimed media bias, and noted IRS and Labor and Justice input. Six members tied to the fund kept their positions on related Health and Welfare Board while new union and employer appointees filled other seats amid protest from PROD, Inc. governance critics. Las Vegas Mayor Briare presented a city key to a French official during a visit by French dignitaries.

Scientists Claim Hookers Have Societal Place
UPI reports two American researchers interviewed prostitutes in 1965 to study their role with vice officers. They found prostitutes can aid law enforcement by supplying information on drug rings gambling, arson, and nightlife networks while older workers counsel younger ones, and cooperation helps sustain prostitution though imbalances and raids occur, with eventual ecological balance restored.
