North Ireland turmoil wounds five including 14-year-old boy
In Belfast's Turf Lodge area on Wednesday night a 14 year old boy was shot by soldiers amid sniper fire and thrown bricks and bottles. Neighbors dispute the weapon claim while authorities say the boy was not armed. A spokesman accused the IRA of using youths in the area. Across Northern Ireland a gun battle left a policeman wounded and a roadblock booby trap injured two British soldiers. London leaders met to discuss new policy moves, including possible changes to internment, as Catholic protests against internment showed limited disruption.

Hughes ideas on Jane Russell contour in book row
New York Times reports an unpublished Irving excerpt includes an anecdote about Howard Hughes berating a public relations man over Jane Russell's underwear and natural contour.
