Curious Sea Lion Survives Sealab 2 Visit
A sea lion named Samantha briefly exposed to the high pressure helium rich atmosphere of Sealab 2 appears to survive the near escape from the capsule. Aquanauts reported the animal poked its head through the hatch before retreating as flashbulbs scared it. Navy officials noted the atmosphere inside the capsule was seven times surface pressure and warned of potential embolism as the animal ascended. No sea lions washed ashore and Samantha reportedly exhaled during ascent. Capt. George Bond said Rich Grigg, 28, was treated for a scorpion sting and returned to duty as the 15 day phase of the 45 day experiment nears completion.

Chicago School Funds Crisis Urges Daley Action
Chicago public schools face a $30 million federal fund withholding over Civil Rights Act noncompliance. The Coordinating Council of Community Organizations urged Mayor Daley to intervene, citing a resistant school system and a near-paralyzed board. Superintendent Willis, 63, was rehired last May to a four year term, with retirement planned in December 1966. Willis condemned the federal move, calling it despotic and a threat to local control.
