Supreme Court rejects Manson and Texas death row inmate appeals
The Supreme Court declined to hear appeals from Charles Manson in California and a Texas death row inmate seeking death as punishment. Manson was convicted for the 1969 Tate murder, though California no longer imposes capital punishment. A Phillips Petroleum official said no cap would be attempted before Tuesday on the North Sea offshore rig spewing mud and oil, with about 4 million tons of sludge in the air daily.

Carter seeks hospital cost cap and child health program
President Carter urged Congress to cap hospital cost growth at 9 percent next year and create a 180 million program to provide medical care for poor children. The plan targets Medicare Medicaid Blue Cross funding, exempts federal and HMOs, and aims to save billions by 1980 while expanding Medicaid for poor under six.
