Train station bomb claims 80th victim BOLOGNA, Italy (UPI) An Italian mother who had gone to the Bologna railroad station to see her daughter off to summer camp has become the 80th victim of Italy's worst terrorist attack. Natalia Gallon, 40, died at a Bologna hospital late Sunday morning from injuries she suffered in the bomb explosion Aug. 2. Her daughter Emanuela, 11, died Thursday from her injuries.

Mrs. Gallon's husband, Giorgio, was injured by the bomb but was released from a hospital on Wednesday. The family had been together in the train station, but shortly before the explosion Gallon went to buy cigarettes and left his wife and daughter in the second-class waiting room. As he was returning, the bomb exploded and Gallon, who was hit by flying debris, struggled through the ruins to find his wife and daughter. The three were taken to separate but when Gallon's condition improved he was taken by ambulance several times to visit his dying wife and child in other hospitals.

PHONE 764-6781 jq Boy's Dinner Special TunnSEAHYTY, SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Union leaders are urging maids, bellhops, cooks and bartenders to ratify a tentative contract that would end their nearly month-long strike against 36 of the city's major hotels. Some of the affected hotels were closed for a time after the start of the strike July 17, but all were open today with non-union help and reduced services. The tentative contract between the Hotel Employers Association and Local 2 of the Hotel, Restaurant and Bartenders Union was reached in Los Angeles Saturday after a 36-hour bargaining session.

Union officials presented members with details of the pact Sunday. The 6,000 striking workers vote on the contract Tuesday. The Visitors and Convention Bureau estimated the loss to the city in tourist and convention business at over $20 million. Among lost conventions was one for the American Chemical Society, which shifted the site to Nevada. Late Sunday the union released details of the new proposal, which raises wages for top employees by 13 percent immediately and 33.5 percent over three years.

Workers at smaller hotels and those on jobs which include tips received smaller hikes of 7.5 to 12 percent immediately and 23.5 to 30 percent over three years. The proposed new contract also adds five new paid holidays over the three years and offers extra meal privileges for top employees.
