Psychiatrist says Sirhan unlikely to be tried, expert testifies
The chief prosecution psychiatrist in the Sirhan Sirhan case testified he believed the Jordanian would not be brought to trial. He said Sirhan was mentally ill but not psychotic, though his confidential report had labeled him psychotic. The defense pressed for diminished capacity, highlighting delusions about killing Kennedy and Arab hero status, while the doctor maintained Sirhan had the capacity to form intent and premeditate.

Parley to Reform Calif Demos Set
Four hundred California Democrats will meet in Sacramento April 1 through 13 to hammer out a reform model for the party. Northern chairman G W Holsinger and southern chairman Leon M Cooper said the conference will let divergent groups speak and plan new directions for the party.

Also notes Easter recess for Congress and USC dean Dean Robert R Dockson resigning to join California Federal Savings and Loan Co after 18 years.
