Cape Canaveral opposes renaming Cape Kennedy
Cape Canaveral Florida officials and the Greater Cocoa Chamber oppose renaming the town Cape Kennedy saying the mass of land with historical significance should keep its name. They sent resolutions to President Johnson Florida’s delegation Governor Bryant and Attorney General Ervin. The council supports honoring the missile center in the name but rejects changing Cape Canaveral’s name. Spanish navigators called the cape Canaveral meaning reed or cane field.

Dear Abby puzzle and pet monkey letters from Iowa
A reader seeks advice on handling an ex-husband remarrying a new wife and the idea of judging or mentoring her style. Also, a Iowa reader asks about keeping or training a pet monkey and care needs. Another letter considers whether to return engagement gifts and photos to a former boyfriend. Abby answers: decline the mentoring task, monkeys are hard to housebreak but doable with care, and wait for the former boyfriend before returning items.
