7 O'clock News / Silent Night - Simon & Garfunkel[00:00:00]

This is the early evening edition of the news[00:00:03]

The recent fight in the House of Representatives[00:00:21]

Was over the open housing section of the Civil Rights Bill[00:00:23]

Brought traditional enemies together[00:00:26]

But it left the defenders of the measure[00:00:27]

Without the votes of their strongest supporters[00:00:28]

President Johnson originally proposed[00:00:30]

An outright ban covering discrimination[00:00:31]

By everyone for every type of housing[00:00:33]

But it had no chance from the start[00:00:35]

And everyone in Congress knew it[00:00:37]

A compromise was painfully worked out[00:00:38]

In the House Judiciary Committee[00:00:38]

In Los Angeles today comedian Lenny Bruce[00:00:40]

Died of what was believed to be an[00:00:41]

Overdoes of narcotics Bruce was 42 years old[00:00:43]

Dr Martin Luther King says[00:00:44]

He does not intend to cancel plans for an open[00:00:45]

Housing march Sunday into the Chicago suburb of Cicero[00:00:47]

Cook County Sheriff Richard Ogleby[00:00:48]

Asked King to call off the march and the[00:00:51]

Police in Cicero said they would ask the[00:00:53]

National Guard To be called out if it is held[00:00:55]

King now in Atlanta Georgia[00:00:56]

Plans to return to Chicago Tuesday[00:00:57]

In Chicago Richard Speck[00:00:59]

Accused murderer of nine student nurses was brought[00:01:00]

Before a grand jury today for indictment[00:01:01]

The nurses were found stabbed[00:01:02]

An strangled in their Chicago apartment[00:01:02]

In Washington the atmosphere was tense today[00:01:03]

As a special subcommittee of the House Committee[00:01:03]

On un-American activities continued its probe[00:01:05]

Into anti Vietnam war protests[00:01:07]

Demonstrators were forcibly evicted from the hearings[00:01:08]

When they began chanting anti-war slogans[00:01:10]

Former Vice President Richard Nixon[00:01:12]

Says that unless there is a substantial[00:01:13]

Increase in the present war effort in Vietnam[00:01:13]

The US should look forward to five more years of war[00:01:15]

In a speech before the Convention of the Veterans[00:01:16]

Of Foreign Wars in New York Nixon also said[00:01:19]

Opposition to the war in this country is the greatest single[00:01:20]

Weapon working against the US[00:01:21]

That's the 7 o'clock edition of the news goodnight[00:01:22]

Silent night holy night all is calm all is bright[00:01:24]

Round yon virgin mother and child[00:01:25]

Holy infant so tender and mild[00:01:26]

Sleep in heavenly peace sleep in heavenly peace[00:01:27]
