Shanker Urges United Front of Teachers Unions
Albert Shanker, longtime leader of New York City teachers, urged NEA delegates to unite with the AFL CIO affiliated AFT and form a single national teachers union. He warned of attacks on tenure and urged collaboration from kindergarten to graduate schools to gain leverage with the presidency. Sam L Lambert, NEA chief, warned merger could split the association and oppose centralized control.

A 20,000 man South Vietnamese task force moved north to recapture Quang Tri Province. The operation, now in its second day, faced moderate resistance but yielded gains as government spokesmen reported enemy losses and captured equipment. Fresh Marines and paratroopers reinforced the push toward Quang Tri City amid civilian refugee outflows.
