Milliken is expected to sign i legislation making Michigan the third state to ban sales of freon spray cans in an effort to halt destruction of the atmosphere's pro- i tective ozone layer. The ban will not take effect until January, 1979, however.

The ozone layer shields the earth from harmful, cancer-causing rays of the sun. The legislation, which was introduced over two years ago, got 1 final, unanimous approval in the state House Thursday after its sponsor, Rep. Perry Bullard, reluctantly asked his colleagues to go along with a Senate amendment delaying the bill's effective date. Will Close N-Plant Power Co. says it probably will have to close its Palisades nuclear power plant for 1981 and 1982 for repair of faulty steam generator tubes.

A company spokesman said Thursday that he does not know how much it may cost to repair the plant or whether the costs will be paid by the company's stockholders or by its electric customers in Michigan. The generating problem at Palisades has nothing to do with the nuclear part of the plant. H. Rails May Get Job EAST LANSING Public Service Commission member William Rails said Thursday he has been approached by members of the Jimmy Carter transition team about the possibility of appointment to a federal regulatory commission. Rails said no firm offer has been made, however, and said he is still undecided about his political future.

In an interview on public television, Rails also revealed he will propose next week that telephone companies offer to list women's Mames along with their husband's in telephone books at no extra charge. At present, couples are charged extra if they wish both names listed, he said. Ex-Tiger Collects DETROIT Michigan Bureau of Workmen's Compensation has ordered the Detroit Tigers to pay $111 a week for life to Les Cain, a once promising pitcher who was forced to retire from baseball because of a shoulder injury, Cain's attorney said Thursday. Jerome Solomon, the Detroit lawyer who filed Cain's claim more than three years ago, said the decision, dated Wednesday in Lansing, was the first of its kind in Michigan. Cain, a lefthander, pitched for the Tigers starting in 1968 and was one of Detroit's brightest prospects until the 1972 season when he was sidetracked by a shoulder injury.

Cawthorne Sponsors Bill Overhauling Juvenile Code LANSING (UPD House Republican Leader Dennis 0. Cawthorne says youth crime has "gotten out of hand" and an overhaul of the state juvenile code is urgently needed. "It's time the legislature faced up to its responsibilities in rewriting the code so we can cope with a situation which is rapidly getting out of control," Cawthorne said Thursday.

"In view of the increasing seriousness of the juvenile situation in Michigan, I do not believe the people can be asked to tolerate much further delay in improving the system." Cawthprne has sponsored a juvenile code reform bill and says rival legislation is "too weak" and fails to give judges the tools they need to combat the problem. "My bill is firm but fair," he said. "It was drafted by a broad- based group of probate educators, social workers, law enforcement organizations, women's groups, parents and lawyers. "Youth crime in Michigan has gotten out of hand and major changes in the state's juvenile code are an absolute necessity," Cawthorne said. Cawthorne said the bill, which has been endorsed by the State Bar, the Probate Judges Association and the head of the State Police "truly represents a moderate aproach to improved juvenile justice." "It protects the public from injury and damage from delinquency and protects youngsters from neglectful and assaultive parents," he said.

"It also povides resources for rehabilitation and treatment of juveniles in need of these services." A key provision in the Cawthorne bill is the designation of "juvenile offenders" which applies to minors between ages 15 and 18 who commit crimes that would be felonies if committed by adults. Those youths could be assigned to secure detention facilities for up to three years. Cawthorne's bill, unlike some other proposals, would not do away with so-called status offenses such as truancy, which are not crimes if committed by adults. A hearing on the legislation was planned for today at the Saginaw Township Hall. Tentative hearings also were planned today for 4 to 6 p.m.

at Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City and at 9 a.m. Saturay at Northern Michigan University in Marquette. Other hearings slated for Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the City-County Building in Detroit and from 2 to 5:30 p.m.

The Detroit Free Press in a Washington datelined story in today's editions quoted sources "close to the union and on the transition team of President- elect Jimmy Carter" that Woodcock was to have been named secretary of Health, Education and Welfare. Woodcock, who is 65 and scheduled to retire from the UAW in May, was the first major union leader to endorse Carter for president and reportedly had been under considertion for a Cabinet post, such as Secretary of Labor. Carter, the newspaper said, met with Woodcock on Thursday and wanted to check with him on possible cabinet nominations for the departments of Labor, HEW, Treasury and Transportation, among others.

School Vacation To Start Dec. 22 The Ludington Area Schools will close for Christmas vacation at the end of the day on Wednesday, Dec. 22. Schools will reopen following the holiday on Monday, Jan. 3.

WASHINGTON (UPD House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill met with Jimmy Carter today and cautioned a go-slow approach to the $15 billion permanent income tax cut for Americans suggested by major business executives Thursday. The Massachusetts Democrat told reporters on emerging from a Blair House meeling with the president-elect that Americans have not been eager to pump recent tax windfalls back into the economy. Asked if he personally favored a tax cut, he said: "That's hard to say in view of the reports that 60 per cent of the last tax cut went into the Ice Again Ties Up Shipping; 28 Vessels Backed Up At Soo SAULT STE. MARIE (UPD Shipping was halted on the lower St.

Mary's River for the second straight day Thursday when a Cleveland Cliffs Co. ore carrier ran aground in shallow water trying to avoid ice jams. Seven hours after the incident, as many as 28 vessels were backed up waiting for the 716-foot long Cliff's Victory to be freed. By late afternoon, the Coast Guard had begun unloading its cargo 1,500 tons of taconite pellets in an effort to float it free. Officials said they would consider reopening another portion of the channel closed two days ago to provide an ice bridge for residents of Neebish Island if the ship is still stuck Fridav.

Officials of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have said they anticipated the most severe winter on the Great Lakes in 100 years because of earlier than normal ice buildups and said the season could provide the first true test of year-round commercial navigation. banks of America." He suggested Carter await "the results of after-Christmas spending" before making a tentative tax decision. O'Neill said he and other congressional leaders discussed the possibility of a tax cut with Carter in order to stimulate the nation's slumping economy. But he would not be more specific.

A plan for a $15 billion cut in personal income taxes and $8 billion in job-creation and tax incentive programs was presented to Carter Thursday during a meeting with 15 major business executives from around the nation. Several of the businessmen reported later that the president-elect made no commitment but seemed receptive to their proposal. Dupont Chairman Irving Shapiro said "I think he (Carter) is doing all the right things now." Ford Motor Co. Chairman Henry Ford agreed, saying the business community was reassured by Carter's concern for the economy. Cloudy tonight with a few snow flurries.

Senate OKs Adult Foster Home Bills LANSING (UPD Legislation outlawing the use of local zoning laws to exclude neighborhood adult foster care homes and discouraging the formation of so-called "mental health ghettos" cleared the state Senate Thursday. Sen Anthony Derezlnski of Muskegon told the Daily News this morning that he voted In favor of all five amendments because he felt they were important to the state. Derezinski said he had received considerable communications from people in the Ludington area, both pro and con. "I intend to send a letter of explanation to those who were strongly opposed to the bills so that they may understand why 1 took the position I he said.

Girl Who Got Deathbed Wish Dies Of Cancer FLINT (UPD Asmahan Hamadi, granted her deathbed request that her imprisoned brother be allowed to visit her at the hospital, died today with her family close by. The 17-year-old cancer victim died with her father by her side and the rest of the family, including her brother who is now free on bond, maintaining a vigil in the waiting room at Flint Osteopathic Hospital. Her brother Khalil, 19, had been serving a term at the Detroit House of Correction for armed robbery and jumping bail, and the Wayne County sheriff's department was reluctant to let him visit his dying sister for fear he would again jump bail. But it relented Monday and two off-duty deputies escorted Khalil on the 75-mile trip to Flint for the tearful family reunion. Khalil was then released on $1,000 bond Wednesday.

"If it wasn't for her I wouldn't be out," Khalil said at the time. "I'd do anything for her." The Hamades, who moved to the United States from Lebanon four years ago, are on welfare. The father, Asmahan, is a sewing machine repairman who has been out of work for nine months and unable to support his wife and eight children. Snowfall Payola LANSING (UPD Thirty- eight of Michigan's 83 counties recorded more than 80 inches of snow last winter, which qualified them for state aid in snow removal. The largest payment of $115,243 goes to Houghton County, based on 211.78 inches of snow last winter.

The greatest accumulated snowfall in Michigan last winter was recorded by Keweenaw County, with 227.39 inches 19 feet. The smallest payment is going to Osceola County, which at 81.27 inches barely exceeded the minimum qualifying snowfall. Derezinski added that the amendments provide what we felt were considerable safeguards. "For one thing, no foster home will be allowed to have more than six patients. No foster home may be located within 1,500 feet of another.

And finally, the amendments include what I believe are very stringent licensing Derezinski said. House sponsors said they were confident the lower chamber would agree quickly to Senate amendments and send the five-bill package to Gov. William G. Milliken for his signature. "I don't like to overrule local government, but local government has excluded these people," said one supporter, Sen.

Robert VanderLaan, R- Grand Rapids. The legislation, which has been; in the works for some seven years, provides that cities, villages and townships could not exclude foster care homes with six or less retarded, elderly, blind or disabled residents from residential neighborhoods. But, if the homes proved to be public nuisances, local governmental officials could petition the state to review the foster home's license. If there was no response from the state within 45 days, the license would be automatially suspended. The legislation also provides that foster homes must be spaced at least 1,500 feet apart and 3,000 feet apart in Detroit.

Backers said that provision was needed to prevent concentrations of foster homes in old, decaying neighborhoods a practice that has afflicted several large Michigan cities. A movement by several Detroit lawmakers to have Michigan's largest city excluded from the bill was defeated. Sen. Arthur Cartwright, D- Detroit, had proposed that no foster homes be located in Detroit for two years to reduce that city's overconcentration of the facilities.

Amusement Park 'Dummy' Turns Out To Be Mummified Victim Of Murder 'Bionic Man' TV Crew Makes Grim Discovery CHRISTMAS TREES Fresh Cut Spruce, Scotch Pine, Douglas Fir.

then east on Rasmussen, 2 miles. LOS ANGELES (UPD The fluorescent "dummy" that dangled for years in an amusement park fun house is the body of a man who was shot to death, probably around the turn of the century. The mystery surrounding the "dummy" grew when coroners examined the body, the bizarre discovery of a television crew shooting a "Six Million Dollar Man" episode. The corpse that has been hanging in the Long Beach Pike "Laugh in the Dark" fun house since 1971 "is the dessicated body of a man about 5 feet 3 inches tall, presumably weigh- ing about 150 pounds," a spokesman for the coroner's office said Thursday. He was killed by a bullet in the chest, and the bullet was still there, said Coroner Thomas T.

Noguchi. "The bullet appears to be a Noguchi said, noting that is an obsolete caliber that has not been manufactured since the 1930s, but other evidence made it appear the body had been dead for some time by then. "The body was professionally embalmed," he said, employing a type of "embalming hardening compound used in the early 1900s." He said the body showed traces of "an examination conducted on internal organs It appears the victim was shot and then examined. How the body became available for display is unknown." Police were seeking owners of another amusement park concession, a now-defunct wax museum, who sold the body to the fun-house owners in 1971. It was covered with red fluorescent paint and dangled from a gallows, glowing in the dark when an ultraviolet light flashed on.

The television series about a "bionic man" was using the amusement park for a shooting background when a crewman tried to adjust an arm on the "dummy" and the arm fell off. "The guy was going to glue it back on, but then he noticed a bone sticking out," a detective said. The body cannot be identified from fingerprints because it has no fingers. If no identity can be established, a spokesman for the coroner's office said, it will be cremated "You just can't paint it red and use it for laughs," he said.
