Continued from page 1 the federal agents investigate is a matter of conjecture. The Lawrence police think information about federal investigations leaks to attorneys before it reaches the police.
Norwood acknowledged he had evidence of drug investigations when he was preparing Tyler's defense, but dismissed this fact as insignificant "because there are investigations at all college campuses."
Dan Young, county attorney, said he didn't know how the lawyers get the information, and said he'd rather not discuss the matter.
There is some bickering, which does not help the investigations. Lawrence police claim credit for much of the leg work in many cases, and tip the federal agents who make the actual purchases. Arrests may not come until much later—six months in Tyler's case—to protect the original informer.
When the arrests do come, federal agents go to the county attorney, who gives the warrants to the sheriff to serve, leaving the police largely in the background.
Whoever takes credit, there are investigations, with both reason and apparent success.
Griffin wins, Evers happy in Miss. vote
JACKSON, Miss. — (UPI)—A staunchly conservative Democrat, Charles Griffin, easily defeated Negro leader Charles Evers Tuesday in a runoff for Congress that featured balloting almost strictly along racial lines.
It was the strongest showing this century by a Negro candidate for major political office in Mississippi, and Evers called it "a history-making occasion."
Griffin, 41, was named to succeed his boss of 18 years, now Gov. John Bell Williams, as representative of Mississippi's Third Congressional District, 'where white voters outnumber Negro voters 125,000 to 70,000.
Almost complete returns in the 12-county district gave Griffin, Williams' former congressional aide, 85,039 votes to 42,684 for Evers. Mississippi's foremost Negro civil rights leader.
Evers, on leave of absence as state field secretary for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), had led Griffin and five other white candidates in a primary. But observers correctly predicted Griffin would pick up the votes cast for the other candidates in the followup voting.
Griffin, in his victory statement, pledged to "provide all the people of our district with dignified, honorable representation at the national level."
Evers saw encouragement in his defeat and indicated he might try again for the seat in the November general election. Griffin will serve the remaining nine and one-half months of Williams' term.
"The mere fact that we were able to get Negroes involved is a victory for us," Evers said. "The mere fact that we stopped our opponent from running a racist campaign shows a victory for us."
Non-candidates must make decisions soon
CONCORD, N.H.—(UPI)—The New Hampshire Primary created new dilemma today for Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller.
Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy's remarkably strong showing against an incumbent president inescapably increases the pressure on Kennedy to move in and challenge Lyndon Johnson for the Democratic nomination.
Richard M. Nixon's landslide Republican victory—79 per cent to 11 per cent for Rockefeller—makes it virtually impossible for the New York governor to sit out the primaries and await a draft.
Kennedy, despite his sharp differences with Johnson over the administration's Vietnam policies, has remained cautiously aloof from McCarthy's peace campaign against the president.
He congratulated his Senate colleague today "for bringing out the issues clearly and courageously.
"The result certainly indicates the existence of a growing opinion concerned over the direction of U.S. policy at home and overseas," Kennedy said.
Despite Kennedy's avowals that he will not be a candidate this year, the large New Hampshire vote for McCarthy against a well-organized write-in campaign for Johnson may force the New York senator to rethink some of these questions:
If Johnson continues to fare poorly in the primaries, particularly in Wisconsin where both the President and McCarthy are on the ballot, might Johnson suddenly announce he will not seek
re-election and endorse Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey to succeed him?
If McCarthy makes another strong showing against Johnson in Wisconsin, could Kennedy step into later primaries and score wins that would force Johnson to step down in his favor.
These are just a couple of the factors to be weighed by the New York senator.
Rockefeller's problem is more clearly defined. The New York governor, who has made it increasingly clear in recent days that men bitten by the presidential bug never recover, must move fast before Nixon locks up the GOP nomination.
Even though Michigan Gov, George Romney's withdrawal left him without any major active opponent in New Hampshire, Nixon's strong showing will not go unnoticed by Republican party professionals.
Wallace to try Oklahoma ballot
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - (UPI)
MONTGOMERY, Ala. —(UPI) -- Campaign officials for third party candidate George Wallace said today the former Governor would try for ballot position in Oklahoma this weekend.
The announcement came simultaneously with report that Wallace's wife, Gov. Lurleen Wallace, would undergo surgery at noon today. There was no immediate word whether Wallace would cancel a scheduled appearance Saturday night at Tulsa.

Seven young political economists take a critical but objective look at the draft in all its aspects and at the alternatives to it. They conclude that conscription in any form is inequitable and then examine in detail the advantages and problems of a volunteer army.
WHY THE DRAFT? is a book that every thoughtful American will want to read, consider and discuss in this important election year.
"This is an excellent piece of work by a group of men of sound professional training and of the relevant age and concern. Policy on the draft has always been made by the old and the aging, and never so much as now, and by the specialists in cliché and tradition. This fresh view is exceedingly welcome and I, for one, hope it will be highly influential."
