This tally sheet shows the votes on Article I, the recommendation that the House impeach Mr. Nixon for obstruction of justice in the Watergate cover-up. As the tally reveals, the vote was 27-11 to recommend impeachment, with six Republican committee members joining the entire Democratic side in casting “aye” votes.

Title: College -- will it break the family budget?
Description: Text transcribed from caption: Suggested for use with RNS college series PC-45964 COLLEGE -- WILL IT BREAK THE FAMILY BUDGET? This co-ed, studying on a tree-shaded lawn of an American college campus, represents, in some cases, an investment of $20,000 or more. With the cost of college education now at record high, students and parents are becoming increasingly concerned about the problem of getting a son or daughter through school without breaking the family budget. And the prospect of paying up to $20,000 or more for a 4-year college education is raising many second thoughts. However, the picture is not that bleak for all students. Scholarships are available, as are low-interest loans, and on many campuses, part-time jobs for students are plentiful. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (C-WAS-8E-74-DS)
