Point men seize Quang Tri city as citadel holds
A 1,200 man South Vietnamese force set a command post in Quang Tri city and spread through the town while government spokesmen delayed saying the city was recaptured until the citadel is controlled. Light resistance was reported with no storm of the citadel. A 20,000 man task force had entered Quang Tri province earlier as Communist forces remained unseen.

Debate over 50000 budget boost for California shuttle drive
The $50,000 state budget boost for space shuttle promotion cleared the Sacramento gauntlet but faces questions about administration use by the Commerce Department. Critics say funds arrive too late to aid bids for prime shuttle sites and contracts and fear siphoning these dollars to Lt. Gov. Ed Reinecke's 1974 gubernatorial campaign.

County Board OKs 40 Cent Rubbish Rate Hike for North County
County supervisors approved a rate committee’s plan allowing north county franchised haulers to raise basic household trash charges from 2.25 to 2.65 per month while denying similar hikes for South Coast firms. The action raises disposal rates to 3.40 per ton, with July 1 as the new effective date and credits of 10,000 dollars applied retroactively. The decision preserves current rates for Channel Disposal and South Coast Collection despite cost pressures from labor and equipment.
