UC admissions policy under fire by California senators
Sen. Lou Casanovich and Sen. Walter Stiern criticized University of California admission and affirmative action practices at a budget subcommittee hearing on Gov. Brown's proposed UC budget. They cited cases of qualified students being denied entry, while UC officials defended affirmative action as unrelated to the cited instances and emphasized campus capacity and independence from the legislature.

Bananas Rule Change Impacts Tourists at Greek Border
Greece maintains a 22 pound per person limit for foodstuffs including bananas. Tourists with more must eat or surrender the excess at the border. Bananas are cheaper in Yugoslavia, leading to cross border sales for profit. The junta banned imports to aid Crete fruit prices, a policy later reversed by Premier Constantine Caramanlis except for this limit.
