Will defends aide's private drug war stance challenged
County Chief Administrative Officer Arthur Will defended Michael Silver a county anti drug administrator who applied on his own time for a $180000 federal grant to form a private drug abuse nonprofit. The Narcotics Commission split over the conflict with several members calling for clear separation between county duties and private program activities. Silver argued the agency would not compete with county aims and said he may not resign but offered no timing on potential steps if the grant is approved.

Senate kills 18-year-olds drinking amendment in California
SACRAMENTO UPI The Senate rejected a proposed state constitutional amendment to allow 18-year-olds to drink. The measure by Assemblyman Robert Cline Canoga Park failed 9 44 votes with 27 to place before voters next year. Proponents argued 18-year-olds already drink, while opponents said it was unwise for the Legislature to decide.

Legislature approves seven member Los Angeles County Board
The Legislature sent to Gov. Reagan a bill to expand Los Angeles County’s Board of Supervisors from five to seven members. Dymally predicts a veto, citing local control concerns, while supporters argue the state can redraw the charter. If signed, two new seats would be filled in 1973 with redrawn districts guided by one person, one vote. Burton Chace plans not to seek reelection, making a new member join in 1973 after 15 years. The report also notes SAN DIEGO on the delta canal plan, with a 10 year timetable.
