Muskie Opens Door to Senate Leader Challenge
After returning from a vacation, Senator Edmund S. Muskie of Maine says he is not yet prepared to decide on challenging Senator Russell B. Long of Louisiana for the Senate party whip or assistant leader. Liberal Democrats press Muskie to consider running, while Hart, sidelined by illness, had hoped to reach him. Republican leadership contests also unfold as Gordon L. Allott seeks the Senate Policy Committee chair.

DPS seeks tighter laws on drug prescriptions and conspiracy
Texas DPS officials urged a legislative overhaul to bar telephone prescriptions of barbiturates and narcotic cough syrups and to require prescriptions for all narcotic cough syrups. They pressed for widened conspiracy arrests at private marijuana parties and faster listing of new drugs on the prohibited list amid rising teen use.

Nixon victory shaped by Saigon delay and turnout
Pollster Louis Harris told Sigma Delta Chi that South Vietnam’s last minute balk at Paris peace talks helped Nixon win the presidency. He noted bombing halts, cease fire absence, and low turnout as decisive factors, with Humphrey gaining a brief edge among eligible voters but failing to translate it at the polls. Harris predicted a President Nixon with a narrow mandate and a fair public mood.
