Greensburg demolition discovers 70-year-old time capsule

GREENSBURG (AP) School officials here are trying to figure out what to do with a small time capsule found earlier this month as workers were demolishing the town’s high school, severely damaged in the May 4 tornado that destroyed most of the town. The copper box sealed with lead was hidden in one of Greensburg High School’s cornerstones in 1937 to commemorate the construction of a new auditorium. School district Superintendent Darin Headrick said the box could be opened as part of the town’s Fourth of July celebration or during a town hall meeting on July 9.

I think they may have unveiled it yesterday. I'll have to do some follow up...
