Attorney General Won't Rule On 1971 Community College Act
Banner County attorney Robert Simmons says the Nebraska Attorney General will not rule on the 1971 Community College Act's constitutionality. Eight Panhandle counties challenge the act, arguing it is unworkable under the one mill ceiling, while Scotts Bluff opposes and some neighboring counties withhold support. The suit may proceed in district court or be amended for 1973 legislative consideration.

State Eyes Frontier Service Intentions amid Subsidy Rise
The Nebraska Aeronautics Commission will investigate whether Frontier Airlines plans to boost western Nebraska air service after the CAB raised Frontier's subsidy to 12.78 million dollars. Commission chair Ed Weaver Jr warned the increase may reflect trunk line activity rather than local expansion. Frontier cut some western routes but says service could return with higher subsidies, as it adds flights to Denver and other large cities and recalls laid off staff.
