The New York Times had a front-page obituary for A.M. Rosenthal, a former executive editor of the Times, who died Wednesday at 84 after a stroke. A Pulitzer Prize-winning correspondent, who spent most of his 60-year career with the Times, distinguished himself by &ldquo,driving his staffs relentlessly, pursuing the news aggressively and outmaneuvering rivals for the executive suite,&rdquo, the Times reported.

Floridians also had a tough time of it. President Bush, in a visit to Orlando, said that a &ldquo,disquiet&rdquo, is hanging over Americans. To make matters worse, alligators continue to be a problem. A 28-year-old woman was attacked and killed yesterday, the Sun-Sentinel reported. The Charlotte Sun had a much happier ending for its front-page gator story: &ldquo,Woman, 75, fends off 5-foot-alligator with garden hose.&rdquo,

Texas newspapers had more details today on the deadly tornadoes that cut a swath through a rural community northeast of Dallas. Several newspapers ran an aerial photograph that showed a tornado's path, leaving uprooted trees and debris stretching for acres. Stories said that three people died and eight were injured. The extent of the property damage was still unknown.

Front pages in the Northeast were dominated by the sentencing of a former band manager whose pyrotechnics ignited a nightclub fire. One hundred people died. The manager got four years in prison. The newspapers' summation of family members' reactions was universal: ",anger,", ",anguish,", ",tears.",
