A jolly woman who likes to com-: pose music, such as a piece titled "Waltz to Atlanta," as a pastime, and still speaks with a Hungarian accent, she gave this account: Her father had died and she was 17 years old and in boarding school in 1944 when she and her, mother became separated during the air raids when "the Americans were bombing us in the day, the Russians and the English at night" She was sent with a truckload of refugees to Vienna, where she was assigned to play the accordion for wounded German soldiers until being shipped six months later to a displaced persons camp in Bavaria in western Germany. After the war, she worked as a file clerk in the office of a chaplain with the American occupation forces in Nuremberg. Three times agents from Hungary sought her out and pressured her to become a patriot to work for the independence of Hungary.

He termed black support for Mr. Lomax, who also is black, as "weak." In the case of Mr.

The Urban Design Commission approved demolition of homes at 185, 191, 195 and 203 Savannah St after Starling Sutton, a consultant for the Atlanta Economic Development said it would not prove financially feasible to renovate all "but one of the homes. "Each one of those houses is in very much a advanced stage of deterioration," Mr.

Sutton told the commission members. Renovation was considered initially, but it became more of a "hardship or burden," he said. "Each house is racked very badly. The foundation is in a poor state. The houses have been stripped externally and completely gutted inside." A house at 199 Savannah St had previously been granted a certificate of appropriateness.

There is one home at 197 Savannah St that is occupied and will, not be affected by the construe-' tion. There is also a vacant lot beside that home which will be included when construction begins on the new homes in the middle of December. i Mr. Sutton said these homes, which average 500- to 600-square feet, have been unoccupied for eight years. Also approved was a certificate of appropriateness for construction of six low-income 950- square feet homes in place of those destroyed.

Two designs will be used for the homes. One design includes a one-story dwelling and the other a ltt story dwelling. Both designs will feature privacy fences between the houses, grade-level decks and French doors that open onto the decks and bay Mr. Sutton said these homes See HOUSES, Page According to pollster Harry Ross, former Mayor Maynard Jackson can begin making plans for a coronation in 1990 and anyone else interested in entering the race for the city's next mayor in 1989 should begin making other plans. "Atlanta's next, mayor will be Maynard without a doubt," said Mr.

Ross, who has gained national attention for his predictions regarding the voting patterns of blacks. "There are groups within the business community who remain uncomfortable with Maynard Jackson, and there are those individuals who believe a white candidate can draw enough votes in a three-man contest to pull off an upset, but, in my opinion, this is Maynard's city politically." Mr. Ross said he was making the predictions in the face of the likely candidacies of Fulton County Commission Chairman Michael Lo-max and businessman Charles Lou-dcrmilk.
