Honolulu Star-Bulletin Monday, Feb. 14, 1972 Honolulu Star-Bulletin Monday, Feb. 14, 1972 Honolulu Star-Bulletin Monday, Feb. 14, 1972 Sag, .49, HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY. And if youforgot to send flowers to your sweetie, you'd better order them quick And speaking of St.

Valentine's Day, Lin Comito, whose La Pasta restaurant has the motif of the Chicago prohibition era (complete with wait- ers wearing pistols, carrying 've' tommyguns and pictures of 4 7 many gangsters of the period adorning the walls in gilt v1 frames) is celebrating today by commemorating the massacre in Chicago. He's handing out glasses of wine for just 14-Phillips cents to anyone who walks in tonight and says, "Big Al sent Me." By the way, Clark Pascale, the host at La Pasta, looks and sounds like he just stepped out of a Clark Street garage. What a character! Now, all kidding aside, local cops were tipped recently by Mainland la enforcemerit officials that the Syndicate apparently was holding a meeting in Honolulu. Underworld leaders from four metropolitan areas flew to Hawaii, but nobody ever found out what was up Did you read the profile of Honolulan Wendell Phillips in last week's Newsweek? And can he really be worth all that money? If so, we nominate the 14th floor of the Bank of Hawaii building as the richest spot in town. It houses the offices of oil magnate Phillips and the-Hughes Aircraft Co.

The fire virtually destroyed the bedroom in the Pf ister s' apartment and caused heavy damage in the living room.

Also, there was smoke, fire and water damage in the hall. Three other apartments on the 24th floor and some below received water damage. CONDOMINIUM repr esentatives and the police and fire departments were unable to make any initial estimate of damage or suggest a probable cause. Seven fire engine companies and Rescue 1 responded to the alarm. Pico received a minor cut on the arm while attempting to put out the fire.

Lowther, from the Kakaako station which was the first fire company on the scene, joined the Fire Department in October. He said Cupp was the worst burned because he was wearing a "flimsy, light shirt." LOWTHER SAID the hot air that blasted into the ele- vator "just melted the skin" of the men not sufficiently protected. Lowther was asked if he thought he would have been able to find the fire exit if he had not been wearing an air, mask. "Yes, but I'm sure glad I had my mask on," he replied. "I would have been in the same condition as those guys."
