Reformatory Without Walls Trial Shows Promise
The Kan sas Honor Camp at Turtle Creek Reservoir uses 17 inmates from the Kansas State Industrial Reformatory in a wall free program with unarmed guards. Inmates work on park projects while living in a converted building and may stay in camp as plans expand to multiple state parks. Officials say the program helps the men and could provide work and job references after release.

Mantovani, 52, Britain's top paid conductor, will have surgery in London on Sept. 19. Harry Stonehill, Chicago financier, deported from the Philippines, checked into a Sao Paulo hotel.
