State faces bus funding fight over desegregation costs
U S District Judge Frank J Battisti told the Ohio Board of Education to share equally the cost of desegregation busing with Cleveland for the fall.

Negotiations with a bus service collapsed, and officials say the Legislature offers no new money.
