THE NEWS in brief
After absence, Anita Hill teaches law again
NORMAN, Okla. — Anita Hill is teaching law at the University of Oklahoma again after a yearlong absence, laying to rest reports that she was resigning.
Earlier this year, university officials said Hill had planned to leave the university at the end of the spring semester.
"She is one of four faculty that we welcome back with pleasure and open arms from leaves," said C. Peter Goplerud, law school dean.
Contacted by The Dallas Morning News, Hill said she was happy to be back. She is teaching contract law and a course on race, racism and the law.
Hill's sexual-harassment allegations against Clarence Thomas nearly derailed his confirmation to the U. S. Supreme Court in 1991.
While on an unpaid leave during the 1994-95 academic year, Hill lived in Laguna Beach, Calif., and wrote two books.

Center on Saturday.
"He's doing well," said the band's publicist, Michael Pagnotta. Asked about the suicide attempt, Pagnotta said, "It's a personal matter. We're not discussing it."
Depeche Mode had hits with "Just Can't Get Enough" and "Personal Jesus."
Girls rescue drowning dog from rough sea waves
PLYMOUTH, Mass. — When it looked like the dog paddle wasn't going to be enough for a Labrador retriever struggling in heavy seas, three girls used some quick swim strokes of their own to save her. Three pairs of sisters ranging in age from 9 to 14 were playing on an inflatable raft Sunday when they spotted the dog gasping for air. Three of the
girls jumped off the raft and started swimming battling high waves stirred up by Hurricane Felix. Adults watching from shore became worried about the girls' safety and began swimming toward them. Rebecca Thornton, 14, finally reached the dog about 300 yards from shore and pulled her to safety.
