Fromme defense seeks dismissal over suppressed evidence
Lynette Fromme’s attorney charges the U S attorney’s office withheld evidence that could prove she did not try to shoot President Ford. Judge MacBride recessed trial to Wednesday as Virga seeks dismissal or mistrial. Damir’s exculpatory statement cited, Damir testified to the grand jury but wasn’t called as a witness by prosecution. Damir’s police statement could have helped the defense, Heller says he would have wanted it.

Briscoe argues money won’t fix Texas education
Gov Dolph Briscoe told the 10th Annual Governor's Conference that large funding increases would break the state and aid little education. He noted higher education spending has risen fivefold since 1967 and now accounts for about half the budget, urging redirection to give graduates marketable skills and calling for better counseling, planning, and duplication elimination in postsecondary programs.
