Greetings again, Tarzan2,

I was so focused on Canada that I failed to see your remark "Need
Canadian or World Headlines for June 9th 1970"

Here are some events that took place on June 9, 1970 which may or may
not have been covered in Canada or globally.  I've placed two
asterisks by the ones that may qualify.

candidate Bella Abzug

**"For a time the FTC rocked in the winds; then President Nixon urged
the American Bar Association to undertake an independent investigation
of the FTC.  The Bar Association’s report painted conclusions even
more dismal than the Nader team had presented.  Mr. Dixon resigned. 
When, under the new leadership of Casper W. Weinberger, reforms began
taking place within the FTC, the New York Times announced the fact
this way in a front-page headline (June 9, 1970)"
