High Court Backs Massachusetts Veterans Preference Policy
The Supreme Court upheld a Massachusetts law granting an absolute lifetime public employment preference to veterans, ruling it does not unconstitutionally discriminate against women by a 7-2 vote. Justices Marshall and Brennan dissented, citing gender-based discrimination. The case involved Helen Feeney, a state employee challenging veterans’ priority that favored male veterans over female non veterans.

Plague Carriers Targeted Near Los Angeles Hills
Health officials trap ground squirrels east of Los Angeles and test fleas for plague after a Riverside County case involving a 15-year-old boy near Idyllwild. If confirmed, fleas and burrows will be dusted and squirrels reduced to curb near the metropolitan area. Government experts say early treatment is effective and complete eradication unlikely.
