It. became the joke of South- Philadelphia that Republicans had to scour their voter rolls trying to find someone with the courage to run against him. "When I found out that a lot of my Republican committeemen had jobs through the Democratic party, then I knew why Barrett was a giant in politics," rival ward leader Bill Black once said, "He built up an organization behind him that is more than a party organization." As the racial complexion of South Philadelphia neighborhoods changed, Bill Barrett didn't lose any of that following. His home was the only one on his block occupied by a white family. When Mayor Frank L.

Rizzo was elected in 1971, Rep. Barrett's 36th vvard was the only predominantly black ward to vote for him. union card in the Boilermaker's Union. Rep. Barrett did not abandon his education, however.

He later attended and was graduated from Brown Preparatory School and St. Joseph's College. In his youth he ran a real estate office, and rumor had it that he dabbled in bootlegging during Prohibition days with Henry J. Cianfrani, a South Phladelpha politician whose son now is a state senator. After Prohibition, Rep.

Barrett ran a taproom on South 23d Street, and he turned to politics. In 1935 and 1939, he ran for the City Council and lost. He acted as an aide to Rep. Jim McGranery and lost a bid to succeed him in 1942. In 1944, Barrett ran for Congress again and won.

After his defeat in 1946 he was so sure he would who has been helped out by Bill Barrett." Despite his popularity, Rep. Barrett kept his family life almost a secret. When his wife, former childhood sweetheart Rose Timmins, died at their seashore home in 1964, most constituents were amazed to learn that he was married, much less the head of a family of three children and 15 grandchildren. Born os Aug. 14, 1896, in a house just around the corner from i current home at 2324 Reed he was one of 14 children.

His father died when he was only 2 and his mother scrubbed floors to earn a living. Later he left Thomas Parochial School to help support the family. He became an apprentice boilermaker and welder at the Atlantic Refining Point Breeze plant. Until his death, he held a "I think I'd have to say I'm very much pleased by what the book Runs says. It hits my activity most accurately.

It is what my district needs. This is a procedure I've been following ever since I've been in public life." The procedure was indubitably a political asset. Attorney Russell W. Nigro, who was only 2 years old when Rep. Barrett regained his Congressional seat in 1918, ran against him in 1974 andf like the other opponents, took a sound beating.

Sizing up his defeat after the election, Nigro attributed it to all the favors Rep. Barrett did for various voters over the years. "He just called in a lot of IOU's," Nigro said. "There aren't many people in the First Congressional District who aren't related to, or at least a close friend of, someone BARRETT, From 1-A or traveling between the three places.

In the afternoon, he would fly back to Philadelphia, grab a lonely dinner at the airport, and then drive home for a brief nap before seeing his people. Not long ago, Ralph Nader's Congressional Study Group criticized him for his provincialism. The group described him as a "districter" who overlooked the affairs of state in his concern for his district, which included South, Southwest and West Philadelphia. Rep.

Damage to the Queeny was relatively light, and she has been back in service for a long time, with Kellogg as her master. Kellogg's attorney said that the captain "was very much concerned about the fact that the pilot had not been found guilty while he had been found guilty. "But he took it like a seaman," attorney Bank said.

"He took it with courage and equanimity." Kellogg had been convicted once before of violating Coast Guard regulations, in July 1970, when he was adjudged to have overloaded the tanker he was commanding then, the Chan-cellorsville, in New York harbor. Kellogg was placed on six months' probation for that violation, but his license was not suspended.

CAPTAIN, From 1-A day that no decision had been made on an appeal. The Coast Guard also brought charges against the Queeny's pilot, Sverre Sorensen, but those were dismissed by Judge Coughlin in a decision released in early March. The decision in Kellogg's case was dated last Thursday, but the release of the order was delayed until yesterday, after the captain had been notified. Specifically, Judge Coughlin found that: Kellogg did not have an anchor gang standing by as the Queeny swpg around in the Delaware River from the Monsanto chemical works at Bridgeport, N. to head north and deliver more cargo.

Kellogg failed to act quickly enough to avoid the collision, which occurred when the Queeny was about three-quarters through a turning maneuver in the Delaware. A third allegation of guilt that was made by the Coast Guard that to determine Sorensen's course before the Queeny actually etarted turning was dismissed by Judge Coughlin. Judge Coughlin also ordered that if Kellogg is convicted of any other infractions of Coast Guard regulations in the next 12 months, his license will Bicentennial events Noon: Concert: Harrogate Granby High School band, from London.

Judge Coughlin noted Kellogg's long record as a seaman and the character witnesses the captain had presented at the lengthy hearing. "The negligence of the respondent (Kellogg) in this case was not gross or reckless," the judge wrote.

"It was ordinary negligence. "I have also considered the strong and positive manner in which the respondent took over full command of his vessel (the Queeny) after the (collision) He backed safely from the burning Corinthos and proceeded to safe anchorage "Having considered the prior record of the respondent, the testimony and letters of good character, the prompt action after the (collision) and being mindful that the order is intended to be remedial and not penal, I am satisfied that it should be one of suspension The Coast Guard spokesman who released the decision also noted that the hearing against Kellogg "was strictly an administrative procedure to determine if he should continue hold his license as a master and was in no way directed against his person or property." The collision resulted in the worst loss of life in domestic waters since 1972. In additoon to the crewmen and the unknown number of visitors aboard the Corinthos, one of the Queeny's crew died of burns received when he was caught on the open deck by the explosion.
