FDA Recalls 75,000 Cases Of Mushrooms The Food and Drug Administration Tuesday recalled at least 75,000 cases of institution-sized cans of mushrooms, including about 700 cases in Connecticut, which the federal agency said could cause deadly botulism. The 4-pound-4-ounce cans of mushrooms were produced by Emil Lerch Hatfield, beginning in February 1977. They were sold under 12 different brand names, including Elizabeth Park, distributed by S. Vogel Sons of East Hartford, and Mijla Special, distributed by Aljim Wholesale Grocery Co. of Waterbury.

The recall is an expansion of one originally announced Saturday, which involved only one day's production from Emil Lerch. The FDA said Tuesday that lab tests found other production lots were contaminated with botulin, the toxin which can cause sometimes fatal food poisoning. No deaths or serious illness have been reported. Josephine Wallack, manager of S. Vogel Sons, said FDA inspectors Tuesday halted the sale of about 400 cases of the possibly contaminated mushrooms now in stock at the East Hartford company.

Each case contains six cans. Ms. Wallack said hundreds of cases. have been distributed during the last. two years to hospitals, insurance companies, schools and country clubs in the area.

There have been no reports of food poisoning, she said. Marc Schaffer, president of Aljim Wholesale Grocery said he has about 274 cases of the affected product in his warehouse. He said the Waterbury company is trying to recall six cases that recently were distributed to restaurants in his area. The FDA said in Washington, D.C., that consumers and institutions should examine their stocks of No. 10 mushrooms and return any of the affected brands to the place of purchase.

The 1 mushrooms were distributed in Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The agency said the letters "El" indicating the manufacturer appears as two of four digits on the top line of a two-line code stamped on the end of each can. The FDA said it is testing other sized cans of mushrooms produced by the firm and if the same poison is found it will discuss the need to further expand the recall. "Other sized cans of mushrooms duced by the same company were processed differently from the No. 10 cans," the FDA said.

agency said it had no exact figure on total production since February 1977, but the recall covers at least 75,000 cases of six cans each, turned out since last October.

IN MEMORIAM FRIEND TO ALL Diane we miss you so. June 4, 1979 In loving memory of Diane T. DelGreco. who passed away 1 year ago today. You Light Up Our lives We came to you when we were sad, And needed an uplifting day.

We came to you when we were glad, To share our joy that day. We came to you to help us out Because our time went askew, We came to you because we knew There's nothing you wouldn't do. We came to you and gave you love, You added that special glow. We received two fold in return Knowing you'd never say "no." You touched the moments of our lives Though just for a little while, But now you've gone to heaven, On this day God called you home. From your family, Mom; Sisters Donna, Doreen; Brother John; Ken, Grandma, Aunt Michelle and Godmother Phyllis.

The Concorde, with 50 passengers aboard, landed at 5:35 p.m. and left for Dulles International Airport in Virginia, its original destination, after 8 p.m. The 11 other planes, with a total of 1,200 passengers, were scheduled to leave for their original destination, Kennedy International Airport in New York City.

The Concorde was the third to land at Bradley, Palmer said. Mrs. Showalter Fails In Unusual Legal Bid NEW LONDON Lucille Showalter has lost an unusual legal bid to obtain transcripts of a secret grand jury investigation that names a probable driver in her son's 1973 hit-and-run death.

Her lawyer, Averum J. Sprecher, said Tuesday his motion for the transcripts was denied by Superior Court Judge Daniel F. Spallone. Sprecher said a week ago that he believes Mrs. Showalter's request was the first in the state for secret transcripts by a person who has filed a related civil suit.

Spallone, who rejected the motion in a letter, gave no reason. Mrs. Showalter has an anonymous $600,000 lawsuit filed against whoever struck and killed her son here on Christmas Eve 1973. Sprecher has said he hoped the transcripts could help him in preparing the Sprecher, however, has stopped short of saying he name Harvey Mallove, a former mayor and a prominent businessman here, in the suit. Superior Court Judge Joseph F.

Dannehy, who was the one-man grand jury in the Showalter investigation, said in a public report released in February 1978 that it is "more probable than not" that Mallove was at the wheel of the hit-andrun vehicle. Mallove, however, has emphatically denied involvement in the has never been charged in connection with the death. Jilted Boyfriend Charged in Assault EAST HADDAM A 69-year-old woman fell and received a head injury Monday as she tried to intervene in a struggle between her granddaughter and the granddaughter's ex-boyfriend, state police said.

Mrs. Ritchter, who shares the same address with her daughter and granddaughter, fell and hit her head, police said. She was listed i in guarded condition Tuesday at Hartford Hospital. Schleidt was charged about 1:30 a.m. Monday with first-degree assault, second-degree burglary and second-degree larceny.

Schleidt was arraigned in Middlesex County Superior Court Tuesday, and was held later on $5,000 bond at the Hartford Correctional Center, pending a June 11 court appearance.

The Tass news agency said Soviet cosmonaut Valery Kubasov and Bartalan Farkas, Hungary's first spaceman, made a soft landing in the Soviet republic of Kazakhstan, 86 miles southeast of the city of Djezkazgan. Tass said they both feel fine. The two cosmonauts were launched into space May 26 aboard Soyuz 36, but came back aboard Soyuz 35, leaving the newer, fresher model for their space colleagues Valery Ryumin and Leonid Popov.

The two still aboard the station have been in space for 54 days in what appears to be an attempt to set a space endurance record. Interviewed on Soviet television shortly after landing, the two returned cosmonauts said Ryumin and Popov were in good condition, despite their two-month stay in space. Bartalan, the 30-year-old Hungarian space rookie, beamed as he described his eight days aboard the space station. "I hated having to go to sleep because there were so many thrilling and exciting things to see and experience," he said. A major feature of the Salyut 6 endurance flights has been frequent visits by other cosmonaut teams bringing supplies, mail, food and companionship.

Tass said last week the cosmonauts were studying the effect of weightlessness on the production by the human body of interferon, a protein that may have cancer-fighting properties. Congress Approves FTC Money Measure WASHINGTON (UPI) The Senate Tuesday gave final congressional approval to a $49.7 million appropriation for the Federal Trade Commission, allowing the agency to return to normal business.

Congressional opposition to the commission's policies had delayed funding and on Monday, for the second time in a month, it had to suspend operations for lack of money.

Accused Arsonist Loses Second Try NEW HAVEN (AP) The former owner of the Sponge Rubber Products factory in Shelton, which was set afire in 1975, has lost a new attempt to have his state arson charge dismissed. U.S. District Judge Ellen B. Burns Monday rejected a second request for dismissal from Charles D. Moeller, 53, of Cridersville, Ohio.

Moeller's lawyers claim the state charges against the millionaire owner of an Ohio conglomerate place him in double jeopardy because he was acquitted of essentially the same federal charges in 1976. The U.S. Supreme Court rejected a similar claim last year. The new motion before Mrs. Burns alleges that federal prosecutors initiat-: ed the state's action against Moeller after the federal authorities failed to win a conviction.

Mrs. Burns ruled that the matter must go before the state Supreme Court before she can act. Moeller was president and controlling shareholder of the firm that owned Sponge Rubber Products when one of its huge plants went up in a gasoline-fed series of dynamite explosions. It was the most costly case of industrial arson in the nation, the FBI said. Moeller was acquitted, but eight other men from Pennsylvania were convicted of arson-related federal charges.

Since then, Moeller, treasurer of his Grand Sheet Metal and another business associate have been charged by the state with arson in connection with the fire..
