2-A Saturday, June 26, 1976 Philadelphia Inquirer Plaza's clothespin Fitzpatrick ethics case is dropped The Bicentennial What's going on today gets mixed revie vuo faVV A'-WMtS orf CLOTHESPIN, From 1-A One architect, who works for the city, stood on a corner opposite the plaza watching the installation and said: "It's not controversial. It's just a clothespin. There's nothing imaginative in that." But Jerry Cannon, a construction worker who helped build Centre Square, searched for the hidden meaning in its placement on the plaza. "What does it stand for? You think it has to do with being between two banks?" he mused. The clothespin, named "The Clothespin," is constructed of Corten steel that rusts to a red-orange.

Most observers said something like, "It's going to be left like that?" But Oldenburg said the rust achieved just the effect he wanted. The work was commissioned about 18 months ago by Centre Square's developer, Jack Wolgin, to comply with a city building code requirement that 1 percent of construction costs be allocated for art. When Wolgin announced his choice for a giant clothespin in the middle of the plaza, there were those who raised their voices in outrage. This seems to happen in a lot of cities that get an Oldenburg. In New Haven; for example, a 24-foot high "Lipstick" installed in 1969 on the Yale University campus practically caused a riot.

One thing about Philadelphia's Oldenburg. Not one spectator accused" it of being sexy. Observers watching the installation workmen hoisted the statue by crane from a flatbed truck said it a fine way to spend a lunch hour. One spectator, especially, will never forget it. Henry Brzozowski, of 3445 was being interviewed about his reaction to the statue when he felt in his back pocket and found, that his wallet had just been stolen.

A PRACTICE RUN is made by one of the 13 balloons that will participate in the Great Bicentennial Balloon Race at 9 a.m. today, winds permitting. It begins at the Belmont Plateau in Fairmount Park. Gaes Oldenburg 'it IS a clothespin' U.S. reporter sues Soviet weekly FITZPATRICK, From 1-A auto dealership in Chestnut Hill.

The Inquirer, in an article published Thursday, quoted reliable sources as saying that Fitzpatrick had repeatedly invoked the Fifth Amendment during his appearance and that he had sought to quash his grand jury subpoena. Fitzpatrick re-" portedly argued that the subpoena would violate his attorney-client privilege with the principals of Chestnut Hill Lincoln-Mercury, which folded last year after a mysterious $175,000 robbery. The Committee of Seventy, a civic watchdog group, has asked that Fitzpatrick make public a transcript of his grand jury testimony and a copy of his motion to quash the subpoena so that "the confidence of Phila-delphians in (the district attorney's) office will not be impaired." The FBI has filed affidavits in U.S. District Court maintaining that the Chestnut Hill robbery was staged by dealership officials as a means of generating cash to pay off huge debts to organized-crime figures. Reliable sources said the grand jury was particularly interested in Fitzpatrick's long-standing relationship with the dealership's general manager, Francis Harry Brown, a convicted felon and a former client of Fitzpatrick's.

The FBI affidavits described Brown as being "heavily indebted" to reputed loansharks Frank Sindone and Philip Testa. agents are known to have questioned and his administrative assistant, Stanley (Apples) Apfelbaum, about a meeting they had with Brown one week after dealership officials reported the robbery. It was this meeting, Fitzpatrick claimed, that was covered by attorney-client privilege, sources said. Apfelbaum has invoked the Fifth Amendment before the same grand jury, the sources said.
