Message in a bottle found by schoolboys in England Note makes transatlantic trip in one month
The Associated Press
LONDON — A month after New York schoolgirl Kimberly Corbisiero stuffed a message in a bottle and tossed it in the Atlantic, three British schoolboys found it on the southern coast of England, the boys' teacher said Wednesday.
"That's a distance of roughly 3,000 miles," Darrant said, whose pupils found the bottle Sunday during a fossil-hunting expedition near Weymouth. "The bottle must have traveled 100 miles a day."
"It came over in record time," said science teacher Brian Darton of St. Edwards' school near Southampton.
Kimberly, 7, a third grader at P.S. 32 on Staten Island in New York City, threw the bottle into the ocean Dec. 10.
She kept the package light, and Darnton speculated the tar-covered plastic bottle rode high

If you find this letter please mail it back to me and you can keep the dollar. '
St. Edwards' pupils Michael Long, 11, Adriane Strange, 14, and Chris Head, 11, opened it to find a bitter, an envelope and a dollar bill.
enough in the waves to be carried by the westerly storms that blew across the Atlantic last month.
The letter was addressed "Dear Friend."
"If you find this letter please mail it back to me and you can keep the dollar," it said. "I am in a
contest to see if someone can find this letter. Please help me and tell me where you found my letter."
Darnton said the bottle's contents were bone-dry. He said the envelope carried a domestic U.S. Christmas stamp, possibly indicating Kimberly didn't expect a reply from overseas.
But the pupils at St. Edward's, a boarding school for 80 boys, sent her one through the regular mail.
"One of the boys expressed an interest in going to visit her," Darton said. "They've been very excited by this. The boys who found the bottle are little heroes."
But Kimberly won't get her letter back. It and the accompanying dollar were framed and hung in the school library "along with the fossils and everything else we gather in our travels." Darnton said.

USSR allows publication of 'Zhivago'
in the book, Pasternak recounts the experiences of a young doctor, Yuri Zhivago, during the turmoil of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and the repression and privations of the civil war that followed.
MOSCOW — A Soviet monthly has begun publishing in installments Boris Pasternik's masterwork "Doctor Zhivago," which had been banned since it won the 1958 Nobel Prize for literature.

The literary monthly Novi Mir printed the first 102-page excerpt from the novel in its January edition, and is published by Soviet historian, Pritam S. Shachy.
Pasternak was forced by Soviet authorities to renounce the literary Nobel for "Doctor Zhivago," and was expelled from the official Writers Union.
In his commentary, Likhachew wrote that "Doctor Zhivago" is a "kind of autobiography" by Pasternak whose language and style harken back to the traditions of 19th-century Russian fiction.
He is one of the authors whose previously unpublished works are being released now under Mikhail S. Gorbachev's policy of glasnost.
Other long-banned books that have been published or soon will be published in the Soviet Union are Mikhail Bulgakov's "Heart of a Dog," Yevgeny Zamatyin's "We," and "Children of the Arbat" by Anatoly Rybakov.
In December, the weekly magazine Ogonygok gave its readers a sneak preview of "Doctor Zhivago" by printing four pages of excerpts recounting Zhivago's experiences on the war front during World War I.
