COLD, SWIRLING snow and electric lights combined to cause this eerie scene during the snowfall Thursday night. Beacon Journal photographer Ron Kuner caught Beacon Journal Columbus Bureau COLUMBUS An unsuccessful last-minute attempt to avoid a four-way split of Summit County produced bitter exchanges Thursday before the Ohio Senate completed action on a congressional redisricting bill. However, the House late last night fell short twice of obtaining the required (56 votes to approve the one Senate amendment, involving an agreed exchange of territory between two congressmen in Cuyahoga County.

If the Senate insists today on keeping the amendment, the dispute would be sent to a conference committee to be resolved. THE SENATE amendment divides Parma into two districts, the 20th now represented by Democrat James Stanton of Cleveland and the 23rd now represented by Republican William E. Minshall of Lakewood. Neither the House version nor the Senate version differs substantially from a compromise plan approved last month by Gov. Gilligan, incumbent congressmen and legislative leaders of both parties.

The compromise was drawn to favor 16 Republicans and seven Democrats, mostly incumbents. Districts must be set in time for candidates to meet the Feb. 2 filing deadline. The bill contains an emergency clause making it effective immediately after it receives legislative approval and Gilli-gan's signature.

rODA and Ocasek said their amendment was nonpartisan and had the support of political leaders of both parties in Summit County. "Maybe the congressmen don't like it," said Poda. "Big deal." BEFORE apologizing later, Gray, hands in his pockets and thundering at the Democrats, called the proposal a "crass amendment" and a "personal vindictive type of arrangement." He said afterward he never would have made the attack if he had not been informed by Senate Democratic leader Anthony O. Calabrese of Cleveland that approval of the amendment was essential for Democratic help in passing the bill's emergency section. The bill sailed through 26-4 on final passage, with negative votes from Ocasek, Poda, Calabrese and Sen.

The area outside Kent and Brimfield Twp. in Portage County remains in Stanton's 11th District. The new districts would range in population from in the 22nd to 464,578 in the 14th.

Javits New York Times Service LONDON Thirty-three leading scientists warned today that to avoid a world environmental catastrophe, Britain must soon stop building roads, tax the use of power and raw materials and eventually cut her population by half. In a document called "Blueprint for Survival," the scientists declared: "If current trends are allowed to persist, the breakdown of society and the irreversible disruption of the life-support systems on this planet possibly by the end of the century, certainly within the lifetime of our children are inevitable." INSTEAD of industrialization and growth, the statement said, our aim should be "a stable society." It would be characterized by steady or declining population, decentralized living and strict limits on the use of resources. A detailed program for reaching that goal was set out in 22 pages of the magazine, The Ecologist. A statement of support was signed by the 33 scientists, who said each agreed with the basic principles if not every detail. Among them were 'Sir Julian Huxley, the biologist; C.

Temperatures at Akron-Canton Airport dropped from 58 to 43 in five minutes; then continued to drop to 32 in an hour and into the 20s during the evening. An inch of snow was measured at the airport, with reports up to three inches in Northern Summit County. THE SUDDEN drop coupled with snow caused roads to become ice-covered and slippery in the Akron area. There were no major accidents, however. Traffic was slowed throughout the five-county area.

Lancione said the bill was not dead and the pay raise could be approved if Republicans cooperated in reviewing it again.

"It's dead as far as I'm concerned," said Kurfess, "and the responsibility of its defeat rests solely within the minority party. Let them explain that." IN OTHER legislative action, the House passed a Senate bill that will allow delegate candidates to be grouped together on the primary ballot under the name of the presidential candidate they support. The change was sought by Secretary of State Ted Brown to avoid confusion if delegate slates were filed for four or more Democratic presidential hopefuls. Under current law, candidates for delegates to national party conventions must be listed alphabetically. The change will permit a voter to cast a single vote for an entire block of delegate would have knocked the 11th District out of Summit County and pulled the 14th District almost entirely out of Portage County back into Summit.

The area involved is Hudson, Stow and Silver Lake in Summit County and Kent and Brimfield in Portage County. SENATE Republican leader Theodore M. Gray of Piqua accused Senate Democrats of "blackmail" for insisting that the Summit County amendment be adopted as the price of Democratic support for helping to pass the bill as an emergency. The amendment lost along party lines, 18-12. However, four Democrats did join with the Republicans to provide the bare minimum 22 votes needed to approve the emergency section.

Gray then apologized to the Democrats. ONLY Cuyahoga and Summit among the state's 88 counties are split up into four congressional districts under the new plan. However, only one incumbent congressman, Democrat John F. Seiberling of Akron (14th District) lives in Summit while four incumbents live in Cuyahoga. Besides Seiberling, incumbents who would share Summit County territory under the new district lines are Republican J.

William Stanton of Painesville (11th), Democrat Charles A. Vanik of Cleveland (22nd) and Republican Charles A. Mosher of Ob-erlin (13th). None of the four districts lies completely within Summit. SEIBERLING said he made an attempt early this week to talk Stanton into trading their respective portions of Portage and Summit counties.

"Stanton refused and told me that if he made any swaps, it would be with Vanik to get back part of Lake County that he lost to Vanik," Seiberling said. Lake is Stanton's home county.
