Its actions on the sex and race provisions might give charter opponents a foothold to attack the entire document. sion member, felt "compelled" to insist on the latter sentence so the black community "won't call me anti-black." For the record, the U.

S. Census says he county's 1,605,016 residents are composed of 842.528 females (52'i per cent) and 762.488 males (47Vi per cent). There are 144,545 black males and females, about nine per cent of the total population. Means recommended Wednesday that the commission approve a charter provi-s i 0 requiring black and white representation on boards proportionate to the county's population. But the attorney apparently changed his mind overnight, thought the provision might be unconstitutional and urged the study panel to substitute a clause that no board be composed of only one race.

Miller opposed the change because it "didn't guarantee" black representation. He also pointed out there were tyve races recognized in the coun "Despite my request, I'm 100 per cent for home rule for Allegheny County even though the charter has policies and ideas which no one will agree with 100 per cent," Means said after the 30 minute meeting. "Home rule is so important to this county that everyone should support the charter." Means pointed out the charter has a severability clause, a provision that would allow any unconstitutional or illegal sections to be removed without affecting the overall document, and added a new study panel could be elected in four years to "correct any defects." Means disagrees with these sentences: "There shall not be a majority of more than one of either sex on any board, There shall be at least one member of the black race on each board." Dr. Jo-Ann Evans Gardner, a staunch feminist, advocated the former and, because of her success. William E.

Sweet of Common Pleas Court here by the Scrv-i Employes International Union. Local 5 8 5 charged Sweet "maliciously interfered" with grievance procedures contained in a contract between the union and Washington County commissioners in connection with the dismissal of a court employe. Sweet fired court duty officer Stanley Brobey in February, 1973, for allegedly directing profanity at him. In October, 1 9 73, two com i i ners Michael Flynn and Frank Jones Jr.

ordered Brobery reinstated with back pay, Sweet ordered the county treasurer to withhold payment.

Trains of the new Bay Area Rapid Transit district, which had been idled in San Francisco by pickets, began taking passengers today, and the cable cars climbed the steep hills again. Altogether, 380,000 transit riders were stranded by the strike. The pay agreement will provide a $600 annual wage hike for each of 15,500 employes.

The pay packrge will cost city about $9.5 million plus an additional $500,000 for a dental plan. But Mayor Joseph L. Alioto said the city saved $6.3 million in wages not paid during the strike. Rank and file union members voted 750-241 to accept the- wage agreement. A union spokesman said thousands decided to abstain from the voting after heated debate, UMW Rejects Site In W.

Va. Presi Washington Bureau WASHINGTON A proposed headquarters site in West Virginia has been rejected by the United Mine Workers' International Executive Board. The site, located between Charleston and Huntington, was rejected yesterday by the board, which also decided to continue its investigation of other sites, all believed to be in West Virginia. UMW President Arnold Miller was elected on a platform that included a promise to relocate the Washington headquarters in the heart of the coal fields. By LAWRENCE WALSH After 16 months of debate, deliberation and discussion, the final version of the county's proposed home rule charter has been approved unani-mously by the County Government Study Commission.

But the study panel's 120th and last meeting in Room 409 of the Courthouse yesterday ended in disappointment and anger when its attorney, John Means, asked that his name be removed from the 71-page document. Means believes 0 sentences which attempt to guarantee sex and race representation on county boards will ultimately be declared unconstitutional and thereby thwart their intended purpose. "I want it understood that I support the concern of femi-n i and minorities," he emphasized. The study group appeared momentarily stunned by Means' request to remove his name from the charter, although it had ignored his advice for three days. Renamed By P.

(UPI)-Mayor Ma'ynard Jackson of Atlanta urged blacks to work together as a people to "create a new way out of the old." Jackson, keynote speaker last night at National Black Political Conference, addressed a convention rife with division and reports that moderate black leaders were thinking of abandoning it altogether. "If we can prove during these 48 hours that here, in the old stubble-ground of hate and prejudice, slavery and segregation, black men and women of discipline, tolerance, wisdom and strength can ereale a new way out of the old, then we shall offer to people a model of possibility and hope in the midst of distrust, anxi-e and conflict," Jackson told an enthusiastic audience.

He said political power was more important for blacks than economic power, and stressed that blacks must organize politically on the local level, "precinct, ward, county and state before we can talk about delivering anything on a national scale."

County Commissioner Thomas Foerster had asked league officers to adopt a formal position for or against the charter. Delegates felt they did not have enough information to take a stand, especially in light of changes enacted in the three days preceding yesterday's charter filing for a referendum May 21. Changes in the charter are a principal topic of conversation at the ALM convention.

Many delegates have expressed disapproval of last minute alterations, particularly provisions specifying how many female and minority members should serve on appointed boards and commissions. A workshop on the pros and cons of that charter was scheduled for this afternoon. Also on the agenda was a discussion of alternate transit proposals for Allegheny County: The three-day convention concludes Sunday. Guard Units Stay In State For Training Prss Slate Wirt INDIANTOWN GAP -four times as any Pennsylvania National Guardsmen' will train here this summer than last year, State Adjutant Gen. Harry J.

Mier Jr. said today. Because of the energy shortage, 7,300 guardsmen will receive their annual 15-day training at the military reservation here this summer compared with 1,800 last year. Mier said more than 40 per cent of Pennsylvania's ground units and 90 per cent of the air units will be trained within the state this year. Mier's report follows public and congressional complaints concerning the sending of Pennsylvania guard units to other stales for training in face of the gas shortage.

Pennsylvania military posts will be operating at capacity lo handle this year's increased workload. Mier said, adding the installations are not i enough to handle a 1 1 maneuvers for all of the state's units. 500 Mines To Close WASHINGTON (UPI) -The Interior Department said about 5 00 small mines in Eastern Kentucky, southern West Virginia and southwest Virginia will be closed at the end of the month if thny fail to meet federal safety standards. The closings would affect about 6,000 men for or against pending legislation. A 1 1 Allegheny municipalities are members except Pittsburgh.

Mayor Pete Flaherty has ignored offers of membership, according to League Chairman Alfred E. Mantini, a Scott Twp. commissioner. Under the reorganization, each municipality will pay dues to the league through the borough or township association to which it belongs. Membership is voluntary.

The general assembly of league members declined last Center Urged At Mon Flaza A South Side legislator has urged City Council to reconsider its approval of the 10th Street Convention Center site in favor of the Mon Plaza site, on the South Side. He's Rep. James Romanel-li, D-South Side, who expressed his wishes in a letter to City Council President Louis Mason. Mason said late yesterday he has not yet received the letter but that he could not go against council's earlier decision to back the site between 10th and 11th streets adjacent to the Strip District. Romanelli said he feels that the 10th Street site will not develop.

Although he didn't say so, the negotiations for the land have been bogged down by the bankruptcy of the Penn Central Railroad which owns the tract. The Mon Plaza site, also favored by Mayor Pete Flaherty and Councilwoman Amy Ballinger, is near the south end of the Smithfield Street bridge. "Had council chosen Mon Plaza site over years ago," Romanelli wrote, I feel that the convention center today would have been built Dam No. 2 To Close 2 Weeks The Army Engineers have announced that the small chamber at Lock and Dam i No. 2 on the Monongahela River at North Br-addock will be closed to navigation for about four weeks starting April 10.

The shutdown was ordered to permit repairs to be carried out on the lock gates. The Engineers said navigators should use extreme caution in approaching or leaving the large lock chamber to prevent damage that could completely block the river at that point.

The league is trying to avoid the impression it is promoting metropolitanism, according to Bambridge E. Peterson, league executive director.

2 that a high school friend who worked at the Federal Building told him the detective was going to turn him in. Directed Clark Arrested Joyce decided the investigation was too dangerous for McGreevy to continue and directed that Clark be arrested Feb. 19. During cross examination by defense attorney George Shields, McGreevy said Clark's twin brother, Calvin, who is serving time at Lewis-burg Federal Penitentiary, offered him money to get Alvin off. "I could have made a bun-d 1 with this thing." said McGreevy, who said he met with Calvin in a hotel lobby "to be out in public so everyone could see me." The defense attempted unsuccessfully to introduce an alleged tape recording of the meeting between the defendant's brother and McGreevy.

The recording was rejected allegedly because voices were unidentifiable and a transcript of the tape revealed nothing bearing on the case. Safety Panel Formed WASHINGTON (UP I) -The U. S.

The Alvin Clark, alleged narcotics distributor, has been convicted for the second time on 16 counts of bribery and corrupt solicitation in the payment of $6,600 to a city narcotics detective. Clark, 40, of 3011 Perrysville North Side, was found guilty in a Criminal Court non jury trial yesterday by Presiding Judge Samuel Strauss. Court Continued Bond Strauss ordered a presentence report and continued Clark's S40.000 bond. In 1970. a jury convicted Clark on the same charge for the payment of so-called "protection" money to Detective James McGreevy, who had notified his superiors of the bribe offer and was told to accept the money and gather information on Clark's operations.

Clark, who was sentenced to years in prison by Judge Arthur Wesscl. won a new trial when the State Supreme Court ruled last September that a reference during the trial to Clark's prior, criminal record was prejudicial. McGreevy testified yesterday that Clark approached him in August, 1007, after one of tne defendant's drug dealers was arrested.
