FAA probes numerous air incidents amid controller strike
FAA investigates more than two dozen incidents from the first week of the air traffic controllers strike. The union cites near collisions and close approaches, though officials stress many reports are unconfirmed and may take days to verify. President Reagan defends firing the 12,000 strikers as public employees cannot strike.

Refugee relocation plan after Cuban release order
Federal judge orders 322 Cuban refugees freed from Atlanta Federal Penitentiary starting Wednesday with resettlement across the United States within two weeks. Dale Schwartz says the U S Catholic Conference has sponsors lining up as hearings determine admissibility of others. About 130,000 Cubans arrived in Florida last year and were dispersed nationwide through sponsor programs. The judge criticized government cooperation and warned releases hinge on safety reviews. Schwartz notes roughly half of the freed refugees have relatives in the United States.
