Ohio Governor James A. Rhodes decided to sue Life magazine over its May 2, 1969 article The Governor and the Mobster, a move seen as cooling the piece as a campaign issue. Rhodes says the piece was untrue and he will refute it in court while Taft forces face questions about the story.

Jails, Jurists Split Over Indigent Prisoner Credit
Ohio courts debate daily credit for indigent prisoners in jail for fines and costs. The Ohio Supreme Court ruled $3 a day grossly unreasonable but did not fix a new rate. County cases from Butler and Warren reflect divergent local applications as mayors seek $5 to $10 a day credits while advocates press for equal protection under the law.

Condors Win as Water Project Is Halted in California
In Fillmore California the Interior Department suspended an 89 million dollar water plan to protect the endangered California condor. Officials say the project threatened nesting at Sespe Creek and could disrupt breeding. Ventura County Water Conservation District chair E Domingo Hardison lamented the decision but expects it to stand without presidential intervention. The plan aimed to supply 140 000 people via two reservoirs a diversion dam and a transfer channel from Sespe Creek through Santa Clara Valley to the Oxnard Plain. Condors with wingspans up to 11 feet once roamed the West Coast and now survive mainly in Sespe Creek and another Los Padres sanctuary.
