rie News Journal, Mansfield, a Friday, April 30, 1982 12-A Continued I Fire guts hotel; 12 known dead Budget Fire Chief James limn said six people jumped from windows before firefighters arrived. John Tirado, 15, who lived on the second floor with his family, said he saw a woman toss her infant from a top floor window. The child was caught by two men on the street. "She had the little kid," he said. "The fire was in back 9f her and she threw the baby out window.

The fire hit her in the back and she jumped." Tirado's mother, Carmen, said her 16-year-old daughter was the first to smell the smoke and wake the family. As she ran from the hotel, she heard a fire alarm ringing somewhere in the building. "1 believe there were smoke detectors in each of the 12 apartments, but none in the hallways," Sheehan said. HOBOKEN, N.J. (AP) A fire of suspicious origin raced through a four-story residential hotel before dawn today, killing 12 people and injuring several others who leaped from windows to escape the flames.

One woman at a top floor window tossed her baby into the arms of two men down below, before she jumped herself. Deputy Fire Chief Edward McDonald said "an empty container of unknown substance was removed from the building. Something was there that shouldn't have been." Officials said 31 people, including 13 children were in the Pinters Hotel at the time of the fire. As firefighters dug through the charred debris, Deputy Fire Chief Ray Sheehan reported, "We brought out 10 (bodies) and two are in the hospital." McDonald said the fire "spread so fast, the tenants didn't have a chance to evacuate." Ian, director of community relations for St. Mary Hospital in Hoboken.

The 4:22 a.m. fire near the Hoboken waterfront was brought under control about three hours later, said Edward White, a communications officer for the fire department. Damage was extensive. Ms. Nolan identified the two of the dead brought to the hospital as Luz Delia Garcia, 17 or 18, and Anna Hilda Perez, 38 or 40.

"A 2-year-old baby was admitted to the pediatrics ward," Ms. Nolan said. A 20-year-old woman, Maria Colon, was sent to the burn unit of Hackensack Hospital, Ms. Nolan said. Elizabeth Garcia, 15, was taken by helicopter to the burn center at St.

Barnabas Hospital in Livingston. Donald Brunesky was in the hospital's intensive care unit with first-and second-degree burns. Santos Sepulveda, 29, was admitted suffering smoke inhalation and possible fractures. overtaxing ways and save our economy." The Senate already is considering such a measure, which has attracted 55 co-sponsors. It would require Congress to balance the budget except during times of war or by majority votes of at least 60 percent in both houses.

And it would prohibit tax rates from rising faster than national income. But the amendment would not settle the dispute over the pending 1983 budget. The difficulties Congress faces in drafting a budget this year were demonstrated just hours before Reagan's speech when the Senate Budget Committee met to take the first steps toward drafting a new spending plan. The session turned rancorous when Sen. Ernest F.

Hollings, DS.C., attempted to force a vote on Reagan's unpopular original budget. The panel's chairman, Sen. Pete V. Domenici, adjourned the meeting without permitting the vote, conceding Reagan's budget would fail if the roll were called. The committee did agree to begin work on a budget in earnest next week.

The House Budget Committee also is expected to begin work next week. He said Reagan's budget is unfair and carries an unacceptably high deficit despite cuts in social spending. The administration now projects a budget deficit for fiscal 1983, which begins next Oct. 1, of a record $102 billion, even if all the President's spending curbs are adopted. Without action, the deficit is projected to balloon to more than $180 billion.

Reagan talked of the sort of campaign that won him budget and tax victories last year. "Make your voice heard," Reagan told the broadcast audience. "Let your representatives know that you support the kind of fair, effective approach I have outlined for you tonight. "Let them know you stand behind our recovery program," he said. Bolling replied, "1 don't believe the solution is the kind of partisanship that prevailed last year.

If it's turned into a partisan rat race, it will be very, very difficult for anybody to win." Reagan, meanwhile, declared that "only a constitutional amendment will do the job. We've tried the carrot and it failed. With the stick of a balanced budget amendment, we can stop government's squandering, From Page I-A The President also urged enactment of a constitutional amendment to require balanced federal budgets. Although ratification could take years, Reagan said it is the only way to "stop government's squandering, overtaxing ways and save our economy." Reagan's address and the Democratic response came a day after the President and House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill were unable to reach a budget compromise during a face-to-face meeting in the Capitol.

The President blamed the failure on Democrats, saying he had offered "our best efforts to achieve a fair compromise." But Bolling said he omitted from his broadcast remarks his view about the lack of flexibility on Reagan's part. "You notice I didn't say the real reason we couldn't make the agreement," Bolling said. "The President's more of an ideologue than many of his leaders (in Congress)" Bolling said the public should demand continuation of the quest for a bipartisan budget compromise.

Patrick Leahy, executive director of the Ohio Democratic Party, said he believed the move to have Mrs.

Ashbrook run for the seat is merely an attempt to bolster support for President Ronald Reagan's budget proposals in Congress. Leahy said locat party officials will be discussing the election before a decision is made on whether to enter a Democrat in the race. Rep. Delbert Latta of Bowling Green, ranking Republican on the House Budget Committee, said, "We want all the votes we can get, and the people of the district are entitled to representation." However, Rep. Douglas Applegate, D-Steubenville, called the special election "a waste of the taxpayers' money." Applegate criticized Republicans for ordering the election, which he Falklands said would cost about $175,000 "to get someone in (Congress) who will do nothing but vote the way the White House wants." Rep.

Clarence Brown, R-Urbana, supported the decision for a special election. "Ohio and the people of John's district are entitled to be represented in budget battles and international affairs all the things John would want to speak on," Brown said. Rep. Don Pease, D-Oberlin, whose district inherits part of Ashbrook's turf next year when the redistricting takes effect, agreed residents of the district should have representation in Congress "even though the district is going to disappear." Mrs. Ashbrook said her husband thought of his 17th District constituents as a "family." She added: "I'd like to keep it together as long as we can." A graduate of Ohio State University, Mrs.

(AP) A woman who claimed her hair fell out after she bit into a beetle in the bottom of her yogurt cup seven years ago has won a cash settlement from the Dannon Yogurt Co. A Nassau county jury will decide how much Arlene Zuckerman of Valley Stream is entitled to after finding in her favor in a civil suit against Da nnon. Ms. Zuckerman was 17 on Jan. 6, 1975, when she was ate a spoonful of yogurt and "felt a piece of foreign matter in her mouth." Court papers said she discovered it was a dead beetle and "became hysterical, nauseous and ill." The papers filed in First District Court stated "the thought of actually having had the beetle in her mouth would not leave her," and she began to notice "that her had had begun to fall out; she had developed bald spots on various parts of her scalp." The court papers alleged the condition still plagues her.

Ms. Zuckerman noted in the papers that Dannon Yogurt is "widely advertised as a pure and wholesome product, for consumption by people who wish to eat fresh, nutritious food that is not adulterated (and) does not contain unnatural ingredients." Dannon denied the company was responsible for the presence of a beetle in the yogurt, and contended there was no cause-and-effect relationship taking a beetle into one's mouth and losing one's hair. 4' i -V-4---: A 4 -gip ') ,) 1 t' 1 i 1) c-r- i C141 "I 1- 12 A Ihttc, I 4 1 AI 4 fr fi- 14 l'04 11 4 1 oti 1 It 's to ig) 11 1 W.F T1 1 1 '1 11 i 4 44,,,, 84,.. i 4. 4 :3 I 1 i i I 6 1-44----k 11141114 '14- 1 't 2 I 1 4,, -11i 1 1: 1 1 st 4, 1 i ie 01 4 ,61,1 11 I I -I I I N.7 1 0)0 It I I 4 I' Uf 40 el" I I tt i f'''' I 4 ri .4 if; 1'1, 'c i ,......0,...
