Crackdown urged on sick airline pilots by medical official
A FAA air surgeon calls for scrapping the aviation medical examiner system for commercial pilots and letting airlines conduct exams. He cites doctors reporting reluctance to report pilots and cites cases of alcoholism and heart problems unreported by examiners while noting that revocation of certificates and lapses occur yearly. Airlines oppose the change citing legal authority and cost concerns.

Yorty Faces Campaign Review After Eleanor Chambers Death
Los Angeles Mayor Sam Yorty faced uncertainty about his presidential bid after the death of Eleanor Chambers, the 69 year old deputy mayor and longtime adviser. Chambers, a veteran California Democrat who worked with Yorty since 1945, died of pneumonia and her loss prompted Yorty to say he must reassess his plans. He had previously indicated he would press on despite a weak New Hampshire showing.
