Proportion of lead control costs debated by Coolidge
President Coolidge favors a commission to determine each community share of lead control costs, warning against federal prepayment of expenses. Italy mourns Haig's passing and Diaz's death, while Los Angeles hosts a hotel lawn duel tale. In Nicaragua, Marines suffer casualties from Sandino followers, and a Greek fraternity hazes face fines as pledges stride into risk. A mile race sees Lloyd Hahn dominate, with Conger and Pritzer far behind.
