In North Carolina since July 5, 23 people have either been sentenced or pleaded guilty in federal courts on heroin distribution charges.

Israel Syria exchange charges over mistreatment of POWs
The Associated Press reports Israel accusing Lyra of brutal torture of Israeli prisoners and planning a UN protest, while Syria counters with charges of mistreatment of Arab prisoners. Each government denies the other, as Israel cites indignation at reports of beatings and electric-light torture. Meanwhile, border noise and troop redeployments unfold west of the Golan, with a June 23 withdrawal target and UN talks planned. President Assad discusses possible better U.S. relations in a ABC-TV interview, and Nixon prepares a 15,000 mile Middle East trip after touring Europe. Palestinian leaders defer Arab-Israeli peace talks to Geneva.
