Presidential race should be modest under new campaign rules
AP analysis notes that the 1976 race likely reduces campaign spending due to the 1974 Federal Elections Campaign Act. With public funding and strict limits, big donors face caps and ambassadors may be chosen differently. Minor candidates and independents stand to gain more, while incumbents must rely on limited private funds and media strategy.

Zimbabwean roots of a nation name debate and ruins
The piece traces the Zimbabwe name dispute in Rhodesia, detailing white and African views and the ruins near Fort Victoria that sparked theories. It notes archaeologists like Randall-Maciver and G Caleo-Thompson supporting African origins, while Cecil Rhodes framed Phoenician links, with modern Africans reclaiming the symbol as a future governance dream.
