5 Art Institute Grads Design Winners POST-GAZETTE: June 11, 1977-5 Flags Made Here in D.C. Exhibit 4rr JOSEPH MANGINI ptfiX: A M'. l4M Baby Corpses Shock Community Winning flag designs by five graduated students of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh will be shown in the National Sculpture Garden, Washington, following a special ceremony Tuesday-Flag Day marking the 200th anniversary of the Stars and Stripes. On Wednesday in the garden, on the Mall at Seventh Street and under the joint administration of the National Gallery of Art and the National Park Service, 27 contemporary flags chosen in a nationwide competition for design excellence will be on view through Labor Day. The exhibition is called "New Glory." "A Flag for the City of Pittsburgh" was designed by Donna L.

Bott. "I chose to do my flag because I feel the Golden Triangle is an outstanding historical landmark, which should be symbolized in the city's flag, using the city's colors, golden yellow, white and black," she said. Nancy Jane Martin, Pittsburgh native, designed "A Flag for a River-Oriented Organization, Pittsburgh." Her flag uses representations of the Point in blue, green, orange, yellow and black. "I spent all my life in Pittsburgh," she said, "and one could say, romantically speaking, that I grew up with the rivers. That is why I designed my flag: for the people who patrol ana care about the rivers." Pittsburgh-born Joanne Spagnolo created "A Flag for the Bureau of Indian Affairs." Her conception shows "the sun setting over calm Indian waters" and incorporates a feather to suggest the theme.

Other winners are Daniel Juravich, who designed "A Flag for the City of Rome, New York," his home town, and Jan Strunk of Mequon, whose entry was "A Flag for the City of Nantucket, Mass." The locally designed flags were done in the graphic design class of Art Institute instructor Jack Winschell. The number of winners was considered unusually high by the school. The New Glory'" competition was organized by the Santa Barbara Museum of Art with a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. 43 4k MRS. MARY SHANE children she worked with dearly and they loved her." Mrs.

Shane said that Mrs. Mangini had been valedictorian of her graduating class at East Deer High School. She had worked as an aide with the Allegheny County Health Department before joining the Head Start program and had attended evening classes at the University of Pittsburgh and Community College of Allegheny County, studying psychology and early childhood programs. It was while she was employed by the county, according to Wecht, that Mrs. Mangini had worked with poor women.

In the Head Start program she continued to work as a counselor with underprivileged families. The coroner's office reported yesterday that it had not yet been determined whether the bodies were full-term and, if so, whether they were born alive or had been stillborn. To date there has been no evidence that a criminal act took place, Wecht reported. "It's a puzzle," Walkiewicz said. "Whose babies are they? Where did they come from?" The Harrison chief said that if the babies had been placed in the attic before Mrs.

Mangini died, "What could we do about it in court? But if it is determined that they were placed there after she died we would have to try to find who put the babies there and question them. Until we know if these were miscarriages or abortions what is there to investigate?" Only autopsies and other scientific studies will provide the answers to those and other questions. by Donna Bott. l'aney Jane Martin. CHIEF ZIGMUNT WALKIEWICZ being pressed by the media, which had learned of the discovery of the bodies.

Walkiewicz said that Mangini, a security guard at the Brackenridge Works of Allegheny-Ludlum Steel who works infrequently as a township part-time police officer, called him Tuesday morning. According to the chief, Mangini, 46, the father of six children, said: "Chief, I'm getting married and we've been cleaning and remodeling the house from top to bottom. I found a suitcase in the crawl space and when I opened it I found a fetus. It was wrapped in a blanket and had been placed in a plastic bag. I looked around and found two more.

Now, what do I do?" Walkiewicz went to the house and called the coroner's office around noon Tuesday. A deputy coroner who responded to the call found a fourth body. Walkiewicz said Mangini felt that perhaps his late wife, who was known tor her interest in children and had worked with unwed, economically underprivileged women, possibly had tried to cover up something. "But," the chief said, "he blamed it on her sickness. She had cancer.

Joe said he had asked her several times, 'Don't you feel there's something musty in But she said houses sometimes get that way. He had no inkling of what was in the attic." The discovery was a shock, too, to Mrs. Mary Shane, a teacher's aid in the Head Start program at Trinity United Methodist Church in adjoining Brackenridge. "I worked with Mrs. Mangini from 1972 to 1975," Mrs.

Shane said. "She was a very pleasant person and a good teacher. It was a terrible shock to me when I heard about this. She loved the Mother, Daughter Charged Ttl Atrlr 2 DAtAntivc came to Joiner's aid, they also were attacked, said police. In the ensuing fracas, Mrs.

Moore allegedly kicked Mullen in the groin and scratched the back of White's right hand. Police said the women had to be restrained and handcuffed before they could be transported to No. 1 Station at the Public Safety Building. "fifty Pittsburgh" "River-Oriented" flag by Steel Dissidents' Appeal Ousted The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans has dismissed an appeal by dissident members of the United Steelworkers who want to nullify an agreement giving minority mill workers special seniority rights. The appeal was filed by a group calling itself "Steelworkers Justice Committee." The group sought to intervene in the case so legal objections could be raised.

The agreement, known as the Steel Consent Decree, altered the seniority system in the basic steel mills and directed that nine steel companies and the United Steelworkers pay $30.9 million to 40,000 minority workers for alleged past discrimination. The circuit court opinion said the Justice Committee appeal was not timely. Rankin Woman's Body Found County homicide detectives and Rankin police were investigating the death of an elderly Rankin woman who was found lying on her back on the floor of her livingroom yesterday. Police said Jessie Anderson, a widow, of 105 Braddock was pronounced dead at the scene of a possible stab wound of the chest. An autopsy is planned for today to determine the exact cause of death.

Police were called to the scene at about 4 m. by Luther Harrison and his wife, neighbors of the 65-year-old victim. Harrison told police while he was going upstairs to his residence he looked into Mrs. Anderson's livingroom and saw her on the floor Harrison climbed through a window to gain entry and then called police flriiiiwii.

Africa Drops Rule Plan CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) South Africa bowed to Western demands yesterday and scrapped plans for a transitional government in South-West Africa (Namibia) that critics felt could prejudice the outcome of elections. The South African government said it would appoint an administrator-general instead. The plan received qualified approval by five Western powers after a renewed round of talks here on the future of the disputed territory. South-West Africa is administered by South Africa under an old League of Nations' mandate that has been repudiated by the United Nations. U.N.

resolutions have called for free elections that would bring independence and black majority rule to the mineral-rich territory. In a statement at the end three days of talks, envoys from the United States, Britain, France, Canada and West Germany said they considered the South African move "helpful to the extent that it contributes to our aim to achieve an internationally acceptable solution to the Namibian question." They would now consult with "other parties" and might then renew talks with South Africa. By ALVIN ROSENSWEET Post-Gazette Staff Wrlter Residents of the Allegheny Valley remained shocked and puzzled yesterday as they pondered the gruesome discovery of the decomposed bodies of four babies in a pleasant home on a quiet suburban street in Natrona Heights, Harrison Township. "We're all in total shock. We almost passed out," said a woman who identified herself only as Pat and said she is the fiancee of Joseph Mangini, in whose home the bodies were found.

Pat, who was in the house at 2708 Overland St. Tuesday morning when the babies were found wrapped in plastic bags, said, "We wanted to believe it was a baby doll." She said that Mangini and his wife, Mary Ann, who died of cancer on March 31, 1976, at age 41, had "a loving marriage." Meanwhile, although county police conducted several interviews yesterday, Homicide Lt. Charles Mosser said some time will be required before a number of facts can be determined. Among the mysteries are the age, sex and color of the babies and whether they were placed in a crawl space in the attic of the Mangini home before or after Mrs. Mangini died.

This last question proved of concern to Harrison Township Police Chief Zig-munt Walkiewicz. Chief Walkiewicz said he had asked Coroner Cyril Wecht to wait until he had made his final coroner's report before releasing information to the media. "Did it happen before or after she died?" Chief walkiewicz said. "The agreement was to be for the coroner to determine the answer to that question." But Walkiewicz conceded that Wecht released the information only after carrier I I (n 8s the TWO as often From 10 pip By FRITZ HUYSMAN Post-Gazette start Writer A Wilkinsburg woman and her daughter face a City Court hearing Friday in connection with their alleged attack on three city narcotics detectives following the conviction of the mother's son in Criminal Court for drug charges. According to police reports, Emma Moore, 42, of 1457Vz Cresson St.

and her 19-year-old daughter, who has the same name and address, attacked the detectives along Ross Street as they were leaving the county Courthouse. The incident occurred shortly after a trial Thursday for Joseph Moore, 22, of the Cresson Street address, who was found guilty of drug and firearms offenses. The women are charged with simple assault, terroristic threats, harassment and resisting arrest. Detectives Joseph Joiner, William Mullen and William White reported they were leaving Judge Robert E. Dauer's courtroom on the fifth floor of the Courthouse when Mrs.

Moore threatened Joiner with bodily harm. Deputy Sheriff Daniel Isenberg witnessed the alleged threats and notified the sheriff's office as the three detectives walked away from the women. Police said the women followed the detectives outside where they called Joiner a liar and again threatened him. When Joiner attempted to arrest the daughter, Mrs. Moore allegedly grabbed the detective's necktie and proceeded to kick and punch him.
