Five Formally Charged In Great British Train Robbery
Five suspects, two of them sisters, were arraigned in a small English courthouse for participation in Britain's Great Train Robbery and the related theft of 7.2 million pounds. William Boal denied the charges, with detectives recounting his remark that he should have stayed out of it. Police held the trio of men and two women until August 4 as investigators track looters and accomplices, with nearly 100 detectives scouring London for gang members. Authorities doubt new arrests are imminent though the net tightens.

Long Term Leases Rule Expands School Powers
Iowa Attorney General rules school boards may enter long term leases for buildings converted to schools without bond approval if voters rejected bonds. The decision follows a Howard County case where the board leased from the Howard Winneshiek Fair Board to provide space.
