Frantic to get the car repaired before Bootan's father returned from a weekend fishing trip, Cooney and Bootan, 18, called three other classmates from Fordham Prep, a Jesuit school from which they were graduated on June 3. About 1 a.m. last Sunday, the five headed off in Jason Katanic's mother's Chrysler with three ski masks and a .22-cal. rifle.

Almost as regularly as the summer solstice sunrise that they come to celebrate every June, crowds of scruffy youths descend before dawn on ancient Stonehenge on Britain's Salisbury Plain.
