[Simon, Garfunkel - 7 O'Clock News/Silent Night lyrics]
Silent night holy night
All is calm all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace silent night
Holy night all is calm
All is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
This is the early evening edition of
The news the recent fight
In the House of Representatives was
Over the open housing
Section of the Civil Rights Bill brought
Traditional enemies together but it left
The defenders of the measure without the
Votes of their strongest supporters
President Johnson originally proposed
An outright ban
Covering discrimination by everyone for every
Type of housing but it had
No chance from the start
And everyone in Congress knew
It a compromise was
Painfully worked out in the
House Judiciary Committee
In Los Angeles today comedian Lenny Bruce
Died of what was believed
To be an overdose of narcotics
Bruce was 42 years old
Dr martin Luther King says he does not intend
To cancel plans for an open housing
March Sunday into the Chicago
Suburb of Cicero
Cook County Sheriff Richard Ogleby asked King
To call off the march and the police in
Cicero said they would ask the National
Guard to be called out if it is
Held king, now in Atlanta, Georgia
Plans to return to Chicago Tuesday
In Chicago Richard Speck, accused murderer
Of nine student nurses
Was brought before a grand jury
Today for indictment the nurses
Were found stabbed and strangled
In their Chicago apartment
In Washington the atmosphere was
Tense today as a special subcommittee of the
House Committee on
Un-American Activities continued it's probe
Into anti-Vietnam war
Protests demonstrators were forcibly
Evicted from the hearings when they began
Chanting anti-war slogans
Former Vice-President Richard Nixon
Says that unless
There is a substantial increase in the
Present war effort in Viet nam
The US should look forward to five
More years of war in
A speech before the Convention of
The Veterans of Foreign Wars
In New York Nixon also said opposition
To the war in this
Country is the greatest single weapon
Working against the US
That's the 7 o'clock edition
Of the news goodnight
All is calm all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace silent night
Holy night all is calm
All is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
