Hays Survives Challenge as House Administration Chair
Rep Wayne Hays kept his post atop the House Administration Committee after a mid 1971 resolution gave the panel sole power to set expenses for members. Hays leveraged control of travel, postage and salaries to resist a bid by Rep Frank Thompson to replace him, as colleagues noted his influence over per diem and travel limits amid inflation.

Eight Die in City Row House Fire and Rural Blazes
Fire killed eight people from one family in a three story brick row house early Saturday. In Harford County a separate rural blaze claimed three elderly men. Near Towson Baltimore firemen reported three survivors, a 50 year old woman identified as next of kin, a 19 year old daughter and an unidentified man about 20. Firemen suspected arson as flames shot 10 feet from ground floor windows, suggesting long burn or accelerant. A spokesman said the house would have gone up like a torch if the fire had been detected late.
