The Pulitzer Prizes for 1975, the 59th annual prizes, were ratified by the Pulitzer Prize advisory board on April 11, 1975 and by the trustees of Columbia University on May 5.〔Peter Kihss. ("Pulitzer Prizes Awarded 2 Biographers and Albee" ). ''The New York Times''. May 6, 1975.〕 For the first time, the role of accepting or rejecting recommendations of the advisory board was delegated by the trustees to the university's president, William J. McGill; the change was prompted by the desire of the trustees to distance themselves from the appearance of approval of controversial awards based on work involving what some considered to be illegal leaks, such as the 1972 Pulitzer Prize awarded for the publication of the Pentagon Papers.〔 It was also the first year that the prize for editorial cartooning went to a comic strip artist (Garry Trudeau, writer/artist of ''Doonesbury''),〔 and the first year that a film critic won a Pulitzer (Roger Ebert).〔(Pulitzer Prizes winners ) among alumni of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign〕 Dumas Malone, 83, become the prize's oldest recipient.〔 ==Journalism awards== The list of winners and the citations accompanying the award, are taken from the Pulitzer Prize website.〔(Prizes for 1975 ) from the Pulitzer Prize website〕 *Public Service: * *''The Boston Globe'', for its massive and balanced coverage of the Boston school desegregation crisis. *Local General or Spot News Reporting: * * Staff of ''Xenia Daily Gazette'' (Xenia, Ohio), for its coverage, under enormous difficulties, of the tornado that wrecked the city on April 3, 1974. *Local Investigative Specialized Reporting: * *''The Indianapolis Star'', for its disclosures of local police corruption and dilatory law enforcement, resulting in a cleanup of both the Police Department and the office of the County Prosecutor. *National Reporting: * * Donald L.
