Rain or Shine...

FRENCH RESCUERS were continuing their efforts yesterday to find seven potholers trapped in a cave for a week by floods that have killed 30 people in south-western France.

They became cut off as underground streams rose rapidly because of torrential rains. A police spokesman said two rescuers were injured in yet another attempt to reach the men, aged between 20 and 50, on Wednesday night.
