"And although we've made the repairs and gotten the power back, our job isn't done until we find out what happened." The arrester, located on Smith Street near Commerce Drive, is in place to absorb the power of a lightning strike. When it malfunctioned, the breaker that was supposed to lessen the outage was also destroyed, essentially shutting down the entire feeder. Kluth said LMU workers got most of the power back by about 6:45 a.m.

by switching the power load to another sub-station and that every household and company was on line by 8:30 a.m. Some of the companies affected were White-Rodgers, Matthew- Warren, Logansport Memorial Hospital and the Camelot Care Center. Jim Dillman, health, safety and environmental coordinator at White-Rodgers, said the company Public Records The marriage of Bridget and Donald C. Jr. Gribble was dissolved.

The marriage of Darlene J. and Hoby Agenda decided to send its workers home when the power went out. because they weren't sure how long the outage would last. He said the company usually keeps people at work if the outage is going to be less than an hour, but Divorces that he had to guess because he couldn't get through to the LMU. Klaus Hemberger, superintendent of the LMU, said that because the utilities only have seven lines that can accept calls, many people get busy signals when trying to reach the LMU.

"The switchboard simply becomes overloaded," Hemberger said. As it turned out, the power was only out at White-Rodgers for about a half-hour. "Most of the people returned within the half-hour," Dillman said. "The rest came in a bit later." TT, At Logansport Memorial rill I) 11 Hospital, emergency generators took care of the problem. "We had a few people show up for work late, but as far as patient care, everything was fine," said Alice Rothermel, associate director of nursing.

Lottery Continued From Page A1 lottery players in the lowest income brackets spent the biggest percentage of their gross income on lottery tickets. Conversely, they found that players in the highest income bracket, over $50,000, spent the lowest percentage of their gross income on tickets, just 0.75 percent. The IU researchers also tracked how much money players spent each week. In 1990, for example, the average amount was $7.36. In 1992 it was $7.93.

The results of the IU study prove that the lottery is acting as a "regressive tax," said Pirog-Good. In other words, people who make the least pay the most, where people who make the most pay the least. By contrast, the federal income tax increases as a person's income rises. "What it's doing is making the income distribution worse," she said. "The poor are getting poorer and the rich getting richer." Dillon disputed the study results and pointed to a 1991 poll that found that 66.4 percent of people who played the lottery had some college education.

The study also found that 70 percent of households earning more than $30,000 a year played the lottery. The Public Opinion Laboratory of Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI) conducted the poll, which sampled 2,000 random households throughout the state. Dillon also challenged the size of the SPEA study compared with the IUPUI survey. The 1992 sample, for example, used 464 respondents. Of those, 18 percent or 83 people earned under $15.000.

Continued From Page A1 NASA had planned to cut Hubble loose into a 369-mile-high orbit three hours earlier. But ground controllers found that a computer component was having trouble relaying data, and NASA wanted time to study the problem. Engineers traced the problem and concluded the computer system had backup capacity to get around it. NASA launched Hubble in 1990 with a primary mirror that was ground too flat along the edge. The defect left Hubble nearsighted and unable to answer astronomers' most pressing questions, such as the age and size of the universe.

The first of several servicing missions always was planned for 1993. An embarrassed NASA scrambled to fix Bubble's vision as well as a slew of other problems: shaky solar panels, failed gyroscopes, diminished computer memory and more. NASA officials warned going into the $629 million mission that Endeavour's four spacewalkers almost certainly would encounter problems installing the 11 new Hubble parts and that something probably would be left undone. Happily for NASA, the officials were wrong. Astronauts Story Musgrave and Jeffrey Hoffman, who went out three times, and Tom Akers and Kathryn Thornton, wEo went out twice, completed everything they set out to do.

They encountered only a fe.w minor problems, all of which were overcome: for example, a misaligned door that took a close, and difficulty in replacing the solar-panel electronics all the connections and screws. 7 r- "One of the major technical achievements of the Hubble repair mission has been to show that astrp- nauts can actually work in space, which will be a necessity for tfie space station program," said Sep. Barbara Mikulski, chairman of the Senate appropriations subcommittee that oversees NASA spending. John Pike, a space policy analyst for the Federation of American Scientists and a frequent critic -pf NASA, said, "It is, at a minimum, an example they can point to their ability to successfully do'-a complex mission." The flight was considered the most complex mission in more than 12 years of shuttle flying, the biggest space repair job ever and NASA's biggest challenge Apollo moon landings more than. 20 years ago.
