Hoff named president of Coalition to Save New York
Former Vermont Governor Philip H Hoff has been named president of the Coalition to Save New York. He will split time between Vermont and New York, says the salary is undisclosed. Hoff views the role as uniting the Northeast and addressing New York Citys fiscal woes as a national issue. In Los Angeles, William Harris and wife Emily face closing arguments in a kidnapping robbery case, with Patricia Hearst a codefendant in a separate trial. Judge Brandler warned the defense about limits on testimony, and Harris rested without presenting evidence. The case is expected to go to jurors Friday.

Texas Comptroller Bob Bullock testified at the Aeronautics Commission hearing that linking Austin with Dallas Corpus Christi and the valley via Southwest Airlines could save about 200 000 annually for state travel. He described a conservative estimate based on 25 dollar one way fares and noted travel time savings of roughly 14 000. Bullock highlighted benefits of easier travel for government participation and said Love Field serves Dallas flights for his staff.

Court blocks $1.5B gas price ceiling hike
The U.S. Court of Appeals issued a temporary stay on the Federal Power Commission's Tuesday approval of higher interstate natural gas price ceilings. Opponents seek to block the increase and delay its rollout, arguing it would push up bills by about $15.60 annually for the average residential customer, with regional variations. The court directed the stay “until further order” as the case proceeds, with a decision on review not specified.
