- Admiral Elmo Zumwalt, the U.S. Chief of Naval Operations, assembled the highest-ranking admirals of the United States Navy in Washington, and told them, "The Navy has made unacceptable progress in the equal opportunity area.

Beginning on November 14, the U.S. Navy accelerated programs to combat racism within the service.[27] President Richard Nixon was unhappy with Zumwalt's handling of the recent African American revolt in the Navy. Presidential Advisor Bob Haldeman wrote in his daily diary that day "The President considered Zumwalt and his Navy officers had failed to act on the blacks that refused to sail on the Constellation. The President has told Henry Kissinger to have Melvin Laird order all the men court-martialed and to be given dishonorable discharges. However instead, Zumwalt gave them active shore stations with Coca-Colas and ice cream and now he wanted John Ehrlichman to let Zumwalt know that the President was terribly displeased."[28]

After hopeful winners have purchased 30 million tickets, a 'Million Dollar Drawing' will give previous winners a chance to line their pockets with $50,000 a year for the next 20 years.".[37] Hundreds of ticket holders won on November 24 if they had a ticket with either "130" or "544".[38]
