Workers demolish gym where gunman killed 16 children

STIRLING, Scotland (AP) - Workers began yesterday to tear down the Dunblane primary school gym, where gunman Thomas Hamilton killed 16 children and their teacher.

The demolition is expected to take several days and be finished before pupils return Monday from their Easter vacation.

A garden of spring flowers will be planted on the site.

No decision has been made about a replacement for the single-story modern structure, where Hamilton shot the 5-and 6-year-old children and their teacher March 13 before turning his gun on himself.

Passover products rejected by Quebec language officials

MONTREAL (AP) - Jewish leaders say Quebec's language watchdogs have gone too far in warning that kosher imported Passover products are illegal because their labels are not in French.

In a letter sent in late March, an official from Quebec's French Language Office ordered a food distributor to remove kosher products from store shelves because of their English-only labels.

The letter also demanded that the distributor, Hudon and Deaudelin Ltd., ensure that future shipments be labeled in French.
