Takes Hot Scat To Escape TaMrs Newsmen OKLAHOMA -CITY, Rossi Lomanitz preferred a high, hot seat atop a water tower yesterday ratJrer than talk to newsmen about charges of Communist activities.

Newsmen discovered Lomanitz working as a $1.20 an hour laborer at a power company plant under construction near here. Fellow workers warned him that reporters and photographers were looking for him.

This sent him up IKHfeet of steel girders to the top of the water tank. He remained there for almost two hours in 100-degree temperature. He took the laborer's job June 21 after he was discharged from a teaching job at Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn. His dismissal followed an appearance before the committee. on He refused, on Constitutional grounds, to answer questions concerning alleged Communist affiliations.

"He's a damn good working man, trying to make an honest living."
