oo Actor Edgar Buchanan dead Palm Desert, Calif. (UPI) Edgar Buchanan. 76, a character actor who was best known in recent years for his role as the gar Vefs fire away at Koch flag vefo By WILLIAM BUTLER "Why. the dirty so-and-so! That was the reaction World War 1 veteran Frank Moriarty to Mayor Koch's veto of a traditional $27,000 appropriation for the flag decoration of veterans graves on Memorial Day. Moriarty, 85.

of Woodside, Queens, who has been decorating the graves of World War I veterans since 1919, said Koch "won't get away with it. I'll picket the son-of-a-gun." He said he had fought with Mayor Lindsay when he had tried to cut the appropriation to $1,800 and the full amount had been restored. Moriarty said small American flags were usually placed on 24.000 graves in the city. 'Wouldn't have a city' Frank Magnani. Queens American Legion chairman for graves registration, protested: "If it wasn't for the veterans, he wouldn't have any city to be mayor of." He said the money usually was earmarked for $8,000 worth of flags and that the balance was used to reimburse local sponsors for bands, wreaths and other parade expenses.

"All I'm concerned about are the flags," Magnani asserted. Buchanan appeared in more than 80 feature films, including "Shane," "McClintock," "Donovan's Reef," "Texas," "Buffalo Bill," "When the Daltons Rode," and "Coroner Creek." He also appeared in the TV series, "'Cade's County." Buchanan was born March 20, 1903, in Humansville, the son of a dentist. His father wanted him to follow a medical career, but after a brief dream of becoming a cowboy, Buchanan decided to become an actor. He took pre-med and drama courses at the University of Oregon. At his father's urging, he went to North Pa cific Dental College, where he married Mildred Spence.

He underwent brain surgery there two months ago and never recovered. Acting the second career of his life spanned Edgar Buchanan three decades.
