Fulton Missed White House Party Says Not Invited
Rep Richard Fulton of Tennessee explains in a constituent letter that he skipped a White House party for Johnny Cash because he was not invited, noting Nashville's Music City role and the difficulty of crashing such events. Florence Chadwick becomes a stock broker at 51 after 11 months of training, returning home to San Diego to care for her ill mother. She entered major competitions early in her career, setting records and breaking barriers as a woman in a male dominated field. H. Ross Perot, owner of Electronic Data Systems, loses about 445 million in stock value after a price drop, though he did not sell any shares and reports rising profits. A Berkeley police incident shows gun rights conflict with local business venues during anti ROTC disturbances, while Gen Maxwell Taylor is shouted down at Monmouth College by student radicals over Vietnam.

Teamster Pay Talks Reported Set for Washington Meeting
A high ranking Teamster official says union leaders will gather in Washington next week to press for reopening wage talks with the industry. The Chicago Tribune quoted two officials from each of 350 locals in national Teamster talks urging Frank E. Fitzsimmons to repudiate a tentatively accepted national contract. Fitzsimmons denied planning the meeting, while a Trucking Employers spokesman said the claim was untrue. The national agreement is described as dead by a Teamster official, with no referendum ballots mailed. With the wage deadlock, layoffs loom in hard hit areas as Chicago drivers seek a three year contract with a $5.65 hourly raise, fueling nationwide strikes in Los Angeles and Ohio.
