First Hurricane May Miss Coast
The season's first tropical hurricane churned northwestward in the Atlantic with 90 to 95 mph winds near its center. Forecasters hoped it might veer north and pass up the coast while noting it likely would not reach the U.S. mainland before Thursday. Chief forecaster Grady Norton said it was too far out and too small to threaten coastal areas.

Court Test Sought Over City Pay Ruling
City Auditor T Frank Snyder plans to withhold a 10 cent per hour pay raise while awaiting a final legal determination on the Ferguson Act. City Solicitor Robert P Wilson issued an opinion that 212 city employees are entitled to the increase, but Snyder fears liability in a taxpayer suit for over $2000 monthly. The opinion notes the workers struck but did not notify as required, and suggests a mandamus action may be filed to force payment. The wage raise affects hourly and salaried staff, with pending council discussion and delivery of the opinion to the auditor.
