Lawyers who defended a barge towing company and its employees at the 199S trial said Thursday they were pleased with the ruling.

Cpntracts arc simply awarded tp the lowest bidder, said Bob Tonney. How· ever, all bidders must be experienced and run a financially viable business. A company with a bad safety record would have high insurance and work·. ers' compensation rates that would hinder its ability to submit a competitive bid, he said Thursday. "We depend on tharprocedure to keep unsafe contractors out of this mar· ketplace," Tinney said. TWo workers died Wednesday as a crew from C.J.

They were in fair condition Thurs· ' day at St. Maoy's Hospital in Huntington, hospital spokeswoman Renee Moss said. A crane operator escaped before the beams hit his cab. According 10 records from the Occupational Safety and Health Adminis· !ration, Mahan, which specializes in bridge work, has had 85 safety viola• tions since 1984. The company has been inspected 26 times in the last 13 years. OSHA officials released some of the citations Thursday, but said most could not be released immediately or without a written request.

Smithsonian looks to preserve Old Glory at' cost of $15 million . . By CARL HARTMAN Asaoclated Press Writer WASHINGTON - It could cost $15 million to save the original StarSpangled Banner, the huge flag raised over Fon McHenry in the dawn's early light of Sept. 14, 1814. It now hangs in the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Amencan History - 40 feet long and threatening to crumble. To preserve it from timt and pollution, $15 million will be sought. Just how to do all that is still under discussion. One problem is keeping the na!! on display during the long, high-teeh conservation. One idea is to let the public watch at least pan of the work.· · "I" think it's our duty to make it available to people for as long as we can," said associate museum direc1or Ron Becker, in charge of the opera· tion. ' · The flag dates from the War of 1812, when a decisive British victory might have reversed the Declaration of Independence a generatton before. Francis Scott Key. a Washington lawyer, was trying io get the release of a fellow· Washingtonian the British · · had taken the month before when they attacked and burned the capital. He arrived at an awkward time. The 'British were .try . ing to take Baltimore, OPEl IOI..fll. SAtt.. . •', ·' tOO. They kept him all of a stormy night aboard a SJ!lall sloop in the Patapsco River while they bombarded the fon. which ~guarded the sea approach to the city. The rockets' red glare and the bombs bursting in air - a new invention at the time -)!ave Key glimpses of a smaller storm flag above the fon. In· the morning Maj. George Armistead, the Amer.ican commander. raised the big one - the size of a four-story building - that he had made the year before. Americans stili hCld the fon. The flag, which inspired Key to write the national anthem, was kept in Armistead's family until 1907. Souvenir ~unters snipped away large pieces of it and persons unknown. for unknown.reasons. stitched a red V to one of the wliite stripes. "We're researching who did 'that, and why," Becker said. · The 15 stripes and blue field arc wool. The 15 stars - two feet across, point to point - are cotton. Sewn with linen thread. the ·nag had cost $40S.90 by the time Baltimore widow Mary Young Pickcrsgill and her 13-year-old daughter Caroline. finished it a month before the attack. The museum used !O hang a plain cloth hung over it, and raised it eveoy hour so visitors could see it as the national anthem played. Bin the cloth seemed to give little protection from visitors' breath and fibers . in the atmosphere, so the nag is now on permanent show. It got a light cleaning in 1982, but nothing like the preservation effon now planned, said Suzanne Thomassen-Krauss, the museum's top texti lc e xpen. "We used a vacuum with vcoy low suction, so as not to remove any of Jhe _original fiber," she said. "It.just took off the same liglii dust you'd find on your furniture." . . Last .November, Becker asseni-' bled about SO conservators from Britain ·and Canada as well as the ·United States. They met for ~o days, then broke up into groups available for consultation. Each group deals with a pari of tbe problem - how to build a showcase and how to control the environment inside. Building a ca<;e would require about seven tons of glass. That would be a much more complicated job than making a display ease for a small document like the Declaration of Independence. Many problems still need discussion, "including how to get it down without damage. It is uncertain just how much the flag weighs. Becker estimated 125 to 175 pounds.

'"'· La _,..... , . _ Pear Ann Landers: We in the Red River Valley of northern Minnesota and North Dakota want to say a hel~ted thank-you to the kind people all over the country who were our support and lifeline at a very difficult time. As most of you know, the Valley experienced a horrific winter of .ice and snow, far heyond what is normal. Fargo, N.D., received 116 inches of snow. Our last blizzard, also ~Mil ita the worst, came on April 6, u many in our community were sanclbasging 10 prevent overflowing rivers from flooding the area. Grand Forks not only floodo;d, but the entire down. town burned to the ground. During the month of April, we fought flood waters the likes of which have never been seen. While recovery will take months, I know we will band together and help one another get through this. I want to ·express my heartfeli thanks to the rest of America. Tile response has been incredible. People carne from hundreds of miles to throw sandbags in our communities. and there have heen incredibly generous donations from around the country. We know, too, that all the -news- prayers helped. The caring and con- cern expressed by thousands of people meant so much to us. The Red Cross and Salvation Army deserve special thanks for the enormous·assistance they've provided. Tiley arrived as soon as lielp was needed and will continue to remain here for several months, providing shelter, food, ciOihing, supplies and other necessities. Thank you, America. I am so proud to be part of this great country. You should be, too. -- Sherry in Fargo, N.D. Dear Fargo: Once again, America has proven to he the most generous and philant~ountry in the world. Tile sphit qfvoluntcerism is only one example. Not only do we take care of our own, but we reach out in all directions and help people way beyond our borders, irrespective of race, color or creed.

We school funding plan offered last week by Voinovich cauaed the problem, we over that principle alone. lhould be the folks to solve "We caused the problem, the problem," he . .ld. ·. we should be the folks 1o solve the problem," he said. Echoing those sentiments is State Rep. Joe Sulzer, D-Chillicothe. "If we 're going to put an issue on the ballot, lben let's abolish the legislature and the governor and just have people vole very six months on every hard decision we're supposed to make,'' he said. Unveiled on .Tuesday, Voinovich's $1.1 billion-a-year tax hike features a penny rise in the slate sales iax aDfl increases in cigarette and business property taxes while allowing for a modest reduction in residential property taxes. It now moves to the Ohio House and Senate Finance Committees for several weeks of simultaneous, daily hearings on the proposal. Eventually, if the plan gets 60 percent of the vote in both,chambers, lawmak~rs are expected to place it on the November ballot for a vote. A second ballot issue proposed by Voinovich, that would have eliminated judicial oversighl over the stale's school funding system, appears dead as Democrats and the bipartisan 20-member Appalachian delegation have joined forces to oppose the constitutional amendment: . . Although Sulzer didn't stale specifically that he opposed Voinovich's plan, he did say it comes at the wrong time. "How are we going to tell people to vote for this, when they don't k~ow where they're money is going? We haven't even defined what an adequate education is .. J just lhink it's putting the cart before the horse." The irony of Shoemaker, who testified against the slate in the landmark case overturning the stale's school funding system, voting against a tax hike that funnels more money into poorer schdols does not escape him. But he said .the plan only offers "about half" of what Ohio's schools need anyway. If "This is jus! a medicine man show by the Columbus poliJicians, if people back home think they are going to get what they need from this then they are crazy," he said. Instead of trying to pick apart the Republican~s school funding plan, minority part~ Democrats ought to try a different tact, Sulzer said. " I believe what the (Democratic) caucus shoul(j be doing is submitting their own proposals."
