Saturday. Jim? 2:1. 1079 Philadelphia Inquirer 311 7 77Tr Obituaries Martin Green, administrator of city board A touch of class closes up By Murray Dubin Inquirer Stall Writer It has been a Friday luncheon tradition for 30 years. At the week's end, D. Barlow Burke, 76, a distinguished-looking gentleman who was once prothono-tary of Philadelphia, dines at the Poor Richard Club with his dear friend, A.

Edward Morgan, 76, an equally substantial-looking chap who once owned an advertising agency. Their 30 years of tete-a-tetes is worth noting because yesterday the tradition came to an end the Poor Richard Club is closing. "I'm having a second cocktail today in honor of the passing of the Poor Richard Club," said Burke, a man who apparently does not often partake of a second cocktail before lunch. What closed yesterday was not the fraternity of advertising, journalism and public relations workers, but the building at 1319 Locust St. that has housed the organization since 1927.

Fifty years ago, hundreds lunched and supped at the club's daily meals and affairs. Today, rarely do more than 20 a day eat at the club. That situation, plus a dwindling membership and rising expenses, has shut the club's doors. The owner of the building recently sold it to the Hospital Workers Union, Local 1199C, which intends to convert it, and the building next door, to administrative offices and a training complex. The union hopes to move in this fall.

The club will probably meet again in the fall in some other private club or restaurant, but the members insist it will not be the same. "This place is steeped in tradition," said Al McCrea, 75, a former club president. Indeed, it is. Celebrities from Bob Hope to Lassie have visited the dark, brown brick building designed by Wilson A. Eyre, the architect who headed a team that designed the University Museum.

It was a club of tradition, of black-tie dinners, separate menus for men and women, a gentlemen's club with long, elegant cigars and short, simple drinks. The club, of course, was named after Benjamin Franklin in 1906 by Joseph Appel, an advertising man who worked for John Wanamaker.

The front room of the club is frequently over the son's drinking. "I think it was a shame that they took the old man in," Raymond Smithson, 208 Johnson said. Smithson said the father came to his mobile home, which is across the street, about 10:30 p.m. Thursday saying, "Call the police I just stabbed Sonny." Police found the younger Barron's body on the screened patio of the mobile home, where his mother, Violet, and a brother, John, 46, also live.

Pennsylvania has reciprocity agreements with other states that exempt truckers from fuel taxes, Larson said. However, he noted that Pennsylvania truckers make far fewer trips into the other states. Larson advocated elimination of the reciprocity agreements and far stricter enforcement of the existing permit system. took a pint of blood from Michael in the basement of St. Davids Episcopal Church.

The Devon youth, a slim, brown-haired boy who attends Conestoga High School in Bcrwyn, said that when he was casting around a few months ago for a good service project, he looked at what other aspiring Eagle Scouts were doing setting up racks in the library, painting lines in church parking lots and these seemed "too easy, too fast." When a troop adviser, who worked with the Red Cross, suggested that he organize a bloodmobile project, Michael latched onto the idea because "you've got to keep the community blood supply up," he said earnestly.

A preliminary hearing was set lor next Friday at 10 a.m. idle since the accident. Metropolitan Edison which operates the plant and owns 50 percent of it, has discussed with the NRC the prospect of returning the undamaged reactor to service as early as mid-August. Thornburgh said the Pennsylvania Department of Justice would petition the NRC for a suspension of Met Ed's operator's license if the company tries to reopen the reactor before he is satisfied on a number of counts. Thornburgh said he was aware that keeping1 the reactor closed means that the plant owners must pay more to purchase replacement power.

Before the reactor resumes operation, Thornburgh said, he wants to be satisfied that: Official investigations into the accident are completed and their findings fully disclosed.

Thornburgh said his concern increased Thursday when the NRC Truck policy Associated Press WHITE HAVEN, Pa. Interstate truckers cause more damage to Pennsylvania highways than they pay in fees and taxes, state Transportation Secretary Thomas Iarson said yesterday.
