PRINCES: BACK TO SCHOOL
Prince William and Prince Harry have returned to school, 12 days after the death of their mother, Princess Diana. St. James's Palace, home of their father, Prince Charles, said that the heir to the throne had taken William, 15, back to Eton and 12-year-old Harry to Ludgrove School on Wednesday. Britain's newspapers appeared to be abiding by their recent promise not to intrude on the young princes. No photos of the return to school appeared in early editions Thursday.

DRIVER'S DANGEROUS COMBO
Diana's and Dodi Al Fayed's driver, Henri Paul, ingested a dangerous cocktail of alcohol and prescription drugs, prosecutors said Wednesday, a combination doctors say can cause drowsiness, trouble concentrating and impaired vision. A third blood test to determine the blood-alcohol level of Paul detected fluoxetine -- the antidepressant best known as Prozac -- and Tiapride, used to prevent aggression and treat alcoholism. Both medications can cause drowsiness when combined with alcohol. "Prudence in the use of these medications is normally recommended to drivers," the prosecutors' statement said. NBC News reported that a lawyer for the Al Fayed family, which employed Paul as a security guard at Paris' Ritz Hotel, conceded that Paul should probably not have gotten behind the wheel of a car.

DRIVER'S MOTHER SPEAKS
The mother of Princess Diana's driver said in an interview published Thursday in the Paris daily Le Figaro that her son did not suffer from alcoholism or depression despite tests showing he had drugs used to treat those illnesses and high blood-alcohol levels in his system. "My son wasn't an alcoholic," the paper quoted Gisele Paul as saying. "Can one imagine that the Princess of Wales and Dodi Fayed would have agreed to get in a car driven by someone who is drunk?"
