Maryland church dinner sickens and kills diners
A Our Lady of the Wayside Church dinner in Chaptico Maryland left one elderly woman dead and at least 143 others sick after consuming turkey ham and oysters. Health officials blame salmonella though a source is under investigation with 17 more admitted to hospitals and many treated as outpatients. Illnesses range from ages 2 to 81 and concern extends to dozens more treated without admission.

Whitewater check found in tornado damaged car trunk
A cashier's check for more than 20000 dollars payable to Bill Clinton was found in the trunk of a damaged 1979 or 1980 Mercury Marquis after Arkansas tornadoes. Prosecutors say markings link funds to Susan and James McDougal's failed Madison Guaranty S&L, aiding Whitewater questions about Clinton's sworn statements. Attorney David Kendall mocked the find as unreliable and hinted at further inquisition delays. Independent counsel Starr has extended the grand jury siting for six months.

If successful, eight of ten panels will operate normally, with one still limited and one unrepaired. The mission follows a Monday spacewalk that faced an oxygen data transmitter issue and a hatch seal problem.
