     An 8 -year-0ld girl was dragged about 900 feet by a school bus today in Livingston County.
     According to State Police, the incident occurred about 2:40 p. m.  on State Route 436 in the town of
Ossian after three sisters were dropped off the bus.
     As the last sister was leaving the bus, driver John Coley, 62, of Wayland, Steuben County, told police
that he was not paying attention when he closed the door and trapped her backpack inside. Coley then
continued 900 feet before he realized the girl was being dragged, State Police said.
     The girl was hurt and was transported to Nicholas H. Noyes Memorial Hospital in Dansville,
Livingston County, by Dansville Ambulance.
    Another 8-year-old child on the bus said he hit his head on the seat in front of him when the bus came
to a sudden stop, causing an earache.
     Conservation staff in New Zealand have put down 33 stranded(搁浅)whales after several attempts to
refloat them failed.
     The whales shot Thursday were the last of 99 that stranded themselves Monday on Farewell Spit on
the South Island. Department of Conservation area manager John Mason says staff and hundreds of
volunteers had tried all week to get the whales refloated.
      He says they thought they were successful Wednesday when they got the whales into deep
water-but were saddened Thursday to find that they had swum back ashore. He says the condition of
the whales had significantly become worse.
      As well as the 33 whales that were shot, 36 had died naturally since Monday and 17 were
successfully refloated. Thirteen remain unknown.
