Cleveland City Council revolt threatens Forbes era end
In Cleveland, 11 of 21 newly elected council members declare to oust President George Forbes, who has led the body since 1973, and install Lonnie Burton, amid racial tension and calls for broader scrutiny of legislation from the VomNOVich administration. Burton, also black, cites divisiveness and vows a tougher review of bills. Forbes hints at withdrawing but accepts the vote. At Cape Canaveral, Columbia soars on second test flight with Engle and Truly, marking a milestone with a smooth lift off and a five day mission around Earth.
