Editorial: Will Hungate Leave Congress
The piece discusses Congressman Bill Hungate of Missouri weighing retirement after this term. It notes his ten years in the House, Judiciary Committee roles, and strong re election, but cites his Kansas City governor bids and Nixon impeachment exposure as possible motives. It questions who would succeed him if he resigns and calls for regional leaders to consider the vacancy.

Missouri Loses A Good Man In Senate Battle
The Missouri Senate confirms or rather fails to confirm Robert L. James, the Republican commissioner of administration, amid a partisan clash in Jefferson City. James modernized budgeting, installed a computer for appropriations, and tightened travel rules, but faced harassment over parking spaces and hair length. He previously lacked a five-year residency, leading Gov. Bond to recast him as assistant to the governor before eventually ending the nomination. The episode is portrayed as partisan to thwart the governor, not a verdict on James’s qualifications.

TV networks press for trial tape broadcasts ruling
NBC CBS and PBS asked a Washington court to copy trial tapes as CBS newsman Fred Graham and colleagues sought permission to air tapes. Judge Hart advised the panel that verbatim transcripts already disclose enough, warning broadcast could undercut the ban on airing court proceedings. Networks saw potential in future unobtrusive coverage, while insisting this case is not about broader broadcasts.
