THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER Saturday, August 25, 2001 Judge chosen to rule on Microsoft MICROSOFT from D1 to the lower court. Also yesterday, the Redmond, company gave manufacturers the final code for its new Windows XP operating system, taking the final step before the software hits retailers' shelves in October. That action made it all but impossible for Microsoft to change Windows XP to avoid new accusations of anticompetitive practices. Windows XP includes many new features that are standalone products made by competitors, including a music video player and an instant-messaging system. Critics say Microsoft is using its operating system to muscle other software firms out of the market, just as the company is accused of doing with Internet Explorer.

Shares of Microsoft rose $2.93 yesterday to close at $62.05 in trading on the Nasdaq. The Justice Department, which represents the government in the case, had pressed for the case to be sent back to district court, and said it welcomed the appointment of a new judge. "We're anxious to proceed," Gina Talamona, spokeswoman for the department's antitrust division, said. Microsoft had hoped that the appeals court would put off sending the case back to the lower court while the U.S. Supreme Court considered its appeal.

Spokesman Jim Desler said yesterday that the move was expected by the company, but he declined to comment further. Kollar-Kotelly, 58, was appointed by President Clinton in 1997. She worked as an attorney for St. Elizabeth's, a Washington psychiatric hospital, and for the Justice Department's Criminal Division. She was also a judge on the District of Columbia's Superior Court from 1984 until being named to the federal court.

In two high-profile cases, Kollar-Kotelly issued consumerfriendly rulings. In 1999, she ruled in favor of credit unions in a lawsuit by banks seeking to restrict credit union membership. She also ruled in April against companies trying to keep Ivax Corp. from marketing a generic version of the cancer drug Taxol. Washington lawyers describe Kollar-Kotelly as an organized and efficient judge who is thorough and meticulous about weighing facts and making decisions.

"I would think she would have a thoughtful, pretty deliberate approach" to the Microsoft case, said John J. McDermott, a lawyer who has had several cases before Kollar-Kotelly. However, a lawyer who lost a case before the judge said Kollar-Kotelly caused to drag on unnecessarily. "Her decision-making process is very slow," said John Coale, who represented Julie Hiatt Steele in a lawsuit charging that Newsweek improperly named her as a source in its Clinton scandal coverage. "She took over a year to decide a motion to dismiss, which should be done in a week or two." Kollar-Kotelly was picked randomly from the 10 judges available to take the civil case.

Four judges removed themselves from consideration in the case, without saying why, court spokesman Joe Alexander said. Jackson, an appointee of President Reagan, found Microsoft guilty of antitrust violations last year, and ordered the company split in two. But Microsoft appealed that ruling, arguing in part that Jackson had shown bias against Microsoft. The federal appellate court subsequently embraced Jackson's findings that the company had violated the law, but did not endorse his breakup plan. vearn Notices Obituaries James Framo, pioneering therapist By Rusty Pray INQUIRER STAFF WRITER James L.

Framo, 79, a former professor of psychology at Temple University and an early practitioner of family and marital therapy, died Wednesday of a stroke at his home in San Diego. A native of South Philadelphia, Dr. Framo had been living in California since 1983, when he joined the faculty of United States International University, now Alliant International University, in San Diego. He retired and received emeritus status in 1999. Dr.

Framo taught at Temple from 1973 to 1983 and also served as chief of the familytherapy unit at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital from 1969 to 1973. His office at 1234 Locust St. was the first family-therapy facility in the nation, according to published accounts at the time. Dr. Framo was among a handful of maverick psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers in the 1950s who, working independently in different parts of the country, challenged the notion that bringing together parents and children or feuding spouses in the same treatment room was dangerous.

In those days, he said in his 1999 retirement speech, "novelists and playwrights knew more about family life than science did. Nobody knew how to do family therapy." Dr. Framo was among those who believed that talking honestly with parents, brothers and sisters might help resolve problems with a spouse or children. "Most of the time, we find that Johnnie's problem is his parents' disturbed marriage," he said in a 1972 interview. "In my experience, there has never been a disturbed child who did not come from a disturbed marriage.

Often we treat the marriage instead of the child, and the child's symptoms automatically disappear." Dr. Framo was a founding member of the American Family Therapy Association, which he served as its second president from 1981 to 1983. In 1984, he received the Distinguished Achievement in Family Therapy award from the organization. Dr. Framo made presentations at more than 300 conferences and workshops.

He also wrote or cowrote several books, including Intensive Diane Geiss, 64, of Media, a retired Arco Chemical Co. employee, died Wednesday of cancer at the Bryn Mawr Terrace Convalescent Center in Bryn Mawr. Mrs. Geiss was born in Philadelphia and had lived in Media for 36 years. She was a graduate of Haverford High School and Columbia Taylor Business School in Philadelphia.

Mrs. Geiss had worked as a legal secretary for a Philadelphia law firm and as an administrative assistant at Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia. She was a logistics coordinator for Arco Chemical in Newtown Square before her retirement. She was active in Arco's outreach program, which helps disadvantaged people attend special events, such as ballet performances. Mrs.

Geiss volunteered at Elwyn Institute, helping disabled people, and had been a chaperone for the American Youth Symphony and Chorus on trips to Europe. She was fond of animals and birds and was active in the SPCA. She enjoyed music, gardening, arts and crafts, and walking for exercise. Mrs. Geiss attended Middletown Presbyterian Church.

She is survived by her husband of 42 years, Russell; a daughter, Linda G. Shea; a son, David W. Geiss; and an aunt.Interment was private. A memorial service will be held at 12:30 p.m. today at Middletown Presbyterian Church at 273 S.

Miriam Levitt Agency coordinator, 99 Miriam Levitt, 99, a field coordinator for the federal Retired Senior Volunteer Program and a tireless worker on behalf of Jewish causes, died Wednesday of organ failure at Lankenau Hospital. Born in Hazleton, Mrs. Levitt moved to Philadelphia with her family as a teenager and remained a resident of the city for the rest of her life. Mrs.

Levitt long served as a coordinator for RSVP, which matches senior volunteers with nonprofit agencies. In her early 80s, she retired from her paid position but continued to work as a volunteer at the Philadelphia Geriatric Center until she was 92, when she no longer could drive a car. A graduate of William Penn High School, Mrs. Levitt earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1923. For the next 15 years, she served as a social worker for the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies, specializing in the needs of unwed mothers.

Mrs. Levitt was long active in Na'amat, Israel's leading women's-rights organization. She also volunteered in a publicschool literacy program. She is survived by a son, Robert; a daughter, June Nislick; five grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren. Her husband of 49 years, Henry, died in 1982.

Dr. Framo held bachelor's and master's degrees from Pennsylvania State University and in 1953 received a doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of Texas.

He spent 13 years as a research scientist at the Eastern Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute before moving to Jefferson and Temple. A proud Penn State alumnus, he made news during World War II by hanging a Penn State pennant from the wall of his pup tent while serving with an Army howitzer unit in Italy. Dr. Framo is survived by his wife of 15 years, Felise; daughters Patricia Sommer and Joan Runfola; two sisters; one brother; and five grandchildren.

K. 78, Freeman Freeman, a brash By Michael Kuchwara ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK Kathleen Freeman, 78, a veteran character actress whose face if not her name was known to audiences from television sitcoms, the film classic Singin' in the Rain and Broadway's The Full Monty, died of lung cancer Thursday. Ms. Freeman gave her final performance in The Full Monty last Saturday. She played a sassy piano player in the hit musical and earned a Tony nomination in May.

Big, brash and funny were her trademarks in playing recalcitrant maids, demented nuns, mouthy housekeepers, battle ax mothers, irate landladies, and nosy neighbors. Starting in TV's Golden Age, Ms. Freeman appeared in such shows as Topper, The Donna Reed Show, The Beverly Hillbillies, The Dick Van Dyke Show, Hogan's Heroes, The Lucy Show, and The Golden Girls. "This will sound very corny and I'm sorry," she said last year, "but I have always had the sense I was put here to do this: I am somebody who is around to help the world laugh." One of her biggest fans was comedian Jerry Lewis, and she appeared in 10 of his movies, including The Ladies Man and The Disorderly Orderly. "I have never known an artist who loved doing what they do more than Kathleen," Lewis said last year.

In Singin' in the Rain (1952), considered by many to be the best movie musical ever made, she played Jean Hagen's frustrated voice teacher. Among Ms. Freeman's other films were the 1958 sci-fi thriller The Fly, The Rounders with Henry Fonda, Far Country with Jimmy Stewart, and North to Alaska starring John Wayne. More recently she appeared in Dragnet, Gremlins II, Nutty Professor II: The Klumps, and both Blues Brothers comedies. Ms.

Freeman was born in Chicago and was propelled into show business at age 2. Her parents had a vaudeville act, Dixon and Freeman, in which their daughter did a little dance. She attended the University of California at Los Angeles, where she majored in music and was going to be a classical pianist. Then, she said: "A terrible thing happened. I got in a play and got a laugh.

I just said a line and, For all her voluminous credits, Ms. Freeman's stage credits were mostly on the road touring as Miss Hannigan in Annie, in Deathtrap, and with Lauren Bacall in Woman of the Year.
