(AP) Influenza-related deaths dipped sharply across the country during the week ending Feb. 15, the National Center for Disease Control reports. However, the rate of flu-related deaths remained above the epidemic threshold for the sixth consecutive week, Dr.

Charles Hoke of the center's flu surveillance team said Monday. The latest statistics showed 690 flu-related deaths in 121 major U.S. cities for the week ending Feb. 15. That is 123 above the "expected number" established by the center's evaluation of flu activity in previous years.

However, it is 126 below the peak of 816 deaths reported earlier in February. "This year has been a mild flu year overall," said Hoke. "We see a definite decrease in flu-linked deaths in all regions except the Mountain and New England regions. The Mountain states, which include New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada, Utah and Arizona, remained slightly above the epidemic threshold, said Hoke. The New England states of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island were slightly below the threshold, he said.

Liito abandoned in snow in Wisconsin Light snow all remains of late-winter storm whipped early today, many secondary roads remained closed. Road crews worked through the night in many areas. Schools expected to reopen in most of southeastern Minnesota after closing for all or part of the day Monday. Traffic and school officials were optimistic that at least some schools would reopen in hard-hit sections of Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin. Classes were canceled Monday in an eight-county stretch from southwestern Wisconsin to the center of the state.

Many businesses and industries closed down Monday in sections of Wisconsin and western Illinois. All were expected to resume operations today. Rain continued in the Northeast today.

Career Training institute Alabama State approved seeking dues checkff By BILL PALMER Star Staff writer Union officials representing City of Anniston public employes still want the city to check off mjfon 'dues, and city of ficials agreed Monday to-recommend checkoff to the council in two or three months if they get cooperation on sanitation route reorganization.

Public Works Director Don Warden said the sanitation department is planning to reduce residential routes from six to five. "Give us support on this, and I'll go on record in support of you," he told union officials. He said he hoped to recommend checkoff by June or earlier. City Manager Jim Standridge said he would also recommend checkoff after the route reorganization. He has opposed checkoff in the past.

Arrrerican Federation of State, County and Municipal Employes (AFSCME) Local 1066 president Junior Doss asked that checkoff be instituted now. He objected to "always having a bone hanging out in front of you." STANDRIDGE and Warden said increased productivity and efficiency in the sanitation department over, the next few months is crucial because the city council has asked city officials to take bids for private contracting of garbage pickup. "When we get better planning, commitment, routing and accountability," Standridge said, the city will compare favorably with what a private contractor can offer. Union officials also asked why the city has delayed discussions of a new retirement plan for city employes. Finance Director Tom Wright responded that the city had to await passage of the federal Employe Retirement Act in September, and that the act is still being studied Jo determine what it requires of a retirement plan.

Wright said by late March or early April some sample plans will be presented for the employes' consideration. Employes have expressed a desire for a participating plan which would increase their benefits, city officials said. THE CITY has until June 30 to adopt a plan in compliance with federal law, Wright said. A principal feature of the federal legislation is more rapid vesting of employes. Union officials said employes didn't receive their allotted number of uniforms last year and some newer employes haven't received uniforms.

Standridge said the city might have to order uniforms more frequently or consider changing companies if delivery is slow. Personnel Manager Dave McWhorter asked union officials' cooperation in striving to improve what he termed a high employe accident rate. He said an average of seven accidents a month have been reported in recent months. AFSCME district representative Billy Briggs suggested setting up a safety committee. Standridge said he would set up such a committee containing employes from the various departments, which would meet at least once a month and develop safety procedures.

Two trials under way Two trials one involving armed robbery, the other a charge of assault of a police officer with a weapon are under way now in Calhoun County Circuit Court. Eugene Perry of Oxford, Rt. 7, is being tried on the armed robbery charge. He was indicted on the charge in November of last vear. Fred Duncan of" 911 W.

18th is being tried on the assault charge. He was indicted in August of last year. A spokesman at the Calhoun County District Attorney's office said the current cases, plus appeal cases from city and county courts, would probably take up the rest of the criminal court week.
