New Gas Hearing Opens in Kansas City Area

Kansas Corporation Commission prepared for a third hearing on Gas Service Company's two year request to avoid taking on new customers in 25 small east central Kansas towns including Osawatomie and Paola. Franklin County Judge Coffman remanded the matter to the KCC for further hearings. The commission had earlier allowed the company to refuse new customers and later refused to extend, citing insufficient proof of locating new gas supplies. The ECC will also hear a complaint from the City of Galena over the firm closing a local office.

RFK Ballistics Panel Finds No Proof of Multiple Guns

A three man panel told Superior Court that there is no proof more than one gun was used in the 1968 Kennedy assassination. They could not positively determine if any of seven bullets found at the scene came from Sirhan Sirhan's .22 revolver, though three bullets matched test shots, with one expert saying the match was strongly suggestive but not conclusive. The panel’s report accompanies ongoing cross examination and renewed debate over the case.
