Japan election shows Liberal Democrats fall short by three seats
Partial returns from Japan's House of Councillors election show the Liberal Democratic Party headed for a three seat loss of the 252 seat upper chamber, risking a continued era of coalition government amid lingering Lockheed scandal anger and political shifts toward center parties like Komeito and the New Liberal Club. Independent and minor party gains trail behind as results unfold from urban and rural districts.

Produce Is Still Plentiful Despite Drought And Freeze
Associated Press reports Kent Christensen of the Food Marketing Institute says drought effects on fruits and vegetables are minimal overall with good summer supplies. Freestone peaches should rise above 1976 levels while cling peaches may drop about 6 percent. Officials note farmers used groundwater but warn 1978 may face shortages if water isn’t replenished. Nectarines stay plentiful June to September, unlike tangerines peaking in winter.

Renegade Bishop Eyes Own Seminary
French Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre plans to open a traditionalist seminary in the United States within two years. He spoke in Dickinson Texas during a chapel consecration, saying excommunication would not stop his mission to restore traditional Catholic teachings and that the chapel could become the center of true Catholic faith in the United States. About 500 people attended despite rain delays, with many travelling over 300 miles.
