Federal controls placed on Teamsters pension fund
The Labor Department and the Central States Pension Fund agreed to a consent decree establishing independent management of the fund for at least 10 years. Trustees are barred from influencing investments and must select a top firm to manage assets, with oversight by an independent court-appointed special counsel. The deal aims to keep asset control out of trustees’ hands and marks a Reagan administration victory amid 16 months of negotiations.

Space Mirror eyed as low cost relay for radio TV signals
A 10 foot umbrella shaped reflector of ultra thin wires could relay TV and radio signals over a limited area at far lower cost than satellites. The Space Mirror would be held aloft at 60 to 125 miles by ground directed radio beam, covering up to 2000 miles across. Experts note wind and altitude pose challenges and three years may pass before launch.
