Driving School Scandal Ties to Illinois Licensing
The New Delhi Driving School in Chicago faced scrutiny after court testimony revealed bribes to license examiners from December 1997 to November 1999. Of 470 students ordered to retest, only 77 kept their licenses as 60 of 63 showed up for retests and 23 failed. Gov. George Ryan’s campaign fund received $170,000 from the payoff network, though Ryan denies wrongdoing.

DNA tests aim to verify extinct Cape Lion lineage from cubs
Two lion cubs from Novosibirsk Zoo were sent to Cape Town, South Africa, for DNA testing to confirm if they belong to the Cape Lion breed long thought extinct. Curator Rostislav Shilo said the cubs originated from parents Rita and Simon and were born in 1961, with museum comparisons planned to preserve the lineage. Cape Lions, noted for larger bodies and black manes, were once believed killed in the 19th century though some captive individuals persisted. Specialist Helmut Pech of Vienna’s Schoenbrunner Zoo commented on their distinctive traits and historical status.
