Washington environmentalists helped sink a $6 billion loan guarantee plan for synthetic fuel development as Congress deleted the measure from ERDA funding. Supporters like Rep. Harold Runnels argued the project would aid national gas supplies and New Mexico jobs, while opponents feared environmental damage and a subsidy to big business. The bill now awaits Senate action or a conference move.

Academy coeds will join Air Force as underclassmen next summer
Capt. Maxine King, Olympic diving champion and cadet diving coach, says women entering the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs next summer will be designated underclassmen and housed on separate floors from men. They will mix in dayrooms and social areas but remain outside dormitory pins, with full integration into squadrons for class work as about 1,500 first-year men join a total enrollment near 4,000.
