Dr Todd to lead AMA amid health reform split
Dr Malcolm C Todd of Long Beach will be inaugurated as president of the American Medical Association amid divisions over national health insurance and a peer review proposal. The AMA negotiates with Congress on amendments while Todd opposes the law, and faces balancing diplomacy with the profession’s cautious stance on government-imposed standards. Chicago Daily News reports Todd’s conciliatory, Kissinger-like style as key to healing rifts and guiding the association through controversy.

Bremer near half year mark in Maryland prison routine
After 20 months of a 53 year term Bremer remains largely silent in Maryland State Penitentiary. He has a private cell, avoids interviews, and keeps to a daily grind in a medieval style facility with overcrowding and high walls. Authorities have denied appeals and federal charges may still proceed, while Wallace pursues political activity. Bremer works in the prison print shop and spends time with his father during occasional visits as he endures isolation and a restrained life behind walls.
