Nixon pledges to defend industry against pollution blame
President Nixon told leading industrialists the administration will not scapegoat industry in solving pollution. He cited 190 voluntary actions by companies and a 160-corporation effort as proof the private sector can clean up the environment without government punishment. Gerald Ford faced questions over campaign contributions and disclosure after funds routed through party HQ were used to pay post election debts. On USS New Orleans, Apollo 13 astronauts prepared to transfer to a plane for Houston after a safe recovery and quarantine following the lunar mission and bullseye landing.

Wisconsin Assembly Passes Monday Holiday Amendment
The Wisconsin Assembly approved an amendment excluding Memorial and Veterans days from a Monday holiday bill after emotional debate. The 63 to 35 vote marked a victory for veterans groups opposing the change, leaving Columbus Day and Washington's Birthday as the remaining three day state holiday weekends. Rep. William P. Atkinson said many colleagues were perturbed by shifting ceremonial holidays to October and May. Rep. Jon Wilcox urged action amid student hostility at the University of Wisconsin and reminders to avoid campus dorm confrontations. Wrightstown in Brown County became the first Wisconsin municipality to adopt a county-wide open housing code, completing county approval as the 24th and final local vote.

MADISON AP Students opposing the Laos invasion rallied for a second night and voted to keep protests active at the University of Wisconsin. About 1,000 people abandoned a six hour occupation of the Social Science Building and held a three hour rally at the student union amid calls for daily demonstrations and a weekend street march.
