WASHINGTON — An aircraft
manufacturer was guilty of discrimi
nation in grounding a test pilot be
cause of his age, the Supreme Court
ruled Monday.
The justices, returning to the
bench one man short following a
two-week recess, rejected without
comment the appeal of McDonnell
Douglas Corp., which removed
Phillip Houghton from his test
pilot’s job at age 52.
Houghton filed suit in U.S. Dis
trict Court in St. Louis, Mo., and
Judge Kenneth Wangelin ruled
against him after hearing conflicting
testimony by experts on how age
can aflect a test pilot’s performance.
But the judge was reversed last
April by the 8th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals.
The circuit court granted
Houghton back pay and ordered
him returned to the job of chief
production test pilot if it can be
shown he remains physically capa
ble of “safely and effectively” doing
the job.

Employment Act forbids unfair
treatment of workers between 40

and 65 because of their age, but
makes exceptions in instances
where age is a crucial factor.
McDonnell Douglas claimed that
exception, but the appeals court did
not agree.
Chief Justice Warren Burger,
who spent the recess in the hospital
with a chronic back condition, was
on the bench Monday. But Justice
Harry Blackman, recuperating from
surgery in Minnesota, was missing.
In other cases Monday, the court:
— Agreed to review a ruling that
water ranks as a valuable mineral
that may be claimed and removed
from public lands under an old
prospecting law.
— Agreed for the second time to

United Press International
WICHITA, Kan.— Ara Cron, a
63-year-old gray-haired woman,
cannot understand why the federal
government would refuse to give
marijuana to people who are slowly
going blind.
T’m certainly going to do every
thing I can to work to legalize
marijuana for medical purposes,”
she said in a telephone interview
Sunday. “This should be available to
people if it’s helpful.”
Cron is somewhat of an expert on
the use of marijuana for the treat
ment of glaucoma, a hereditary eye
disease in which fluid builds up be
hind the eye causing pressure on
the optic nerve.
Glaucoma is a painful disease that
can end in blindness. Several
studies, however, have indicated
marijuana reduces the pressure on
the optic nerve, preventing the dis
ease from worsening.
Earlier this year. Cron’s glaucoma
took a turn for the worse. She had
severe headaches and intense pain
around her eyes. Her vision became
worse each day.
H er doctor suggested surgery,
but Cron held back. Instead, she
asked the federal government to let
her use marijuana.
“I started writing letters, I tried
every way possible, she recalls. “I
wrote to HEW, to state representa
tives, to just everybody I could
think of to obtain it legally—to no
mail from someone who hadk
