Northport, NY - School Removes Hitler Quotes from Yearbook

Northport, Long Island, NY - Two high school seniors picked quotations from Adolf Hitler's book "Mein Kampf'' to appear under their high school yearbook pictures, prompting an apology from school officials.
"It's our responsibility and we failed miserably,'' said Northport High School principal Irene McLaughlin. "The fact that the book went out in the form it did was a grave mistake on our part.''

The district plans to send a written apology to parents this week. School officials would not comment on whether they would discipline the two seniors or Runyan. Officials also are discussing with the yearbook's publishing company either reprinting the section in question or offering special tape to people who want to cover the quotes.
