Thiemann, Erie, chairman of the state Democratic Party, argued that it violated the state constitution in that each party should be allowed to nominate three candidates. In a companion suit, Commonwealth Court Judge David W. Craig one of three judges up for reelection this year asked the Supreme Court to allow the same number of citizen votes and party nominees in the primary and general elections. Craig opposed the position of state Attorney General Edward G. Bies-ter that the limited voting law applied only to the November election.

Justice Robert N.C. Nix Jr. dissented, saying he considered the limited voting law unconstitutional. Justice Rolf Lar-sen also dissented. In a decision likely to favor Republican candidates for Commonwealth Court, the state Supreme Court yesterday upheld "limited voting" for the state appellate tribunal.

Bv a 4-2 decision, the justices upheld the constitutionality of a 1978 law under which each major political party will nominate only two candidates for Commonwealth Court this year, even though three seats are to be filled. Under the law, each voter will have two votes to cast in both the spring primary and the fall general election, and the two major parties will have the right to nominate two candidates apiece. The law is considered advantageous to the minority party, presently the Republican Party. Obituaries Pittsburgh Skies Sunset Wednesday 6:47 p.m. 5:58 a.m.

Baumbeck Ormandy Asks To Step Down As Conductor PHILADELPHIA (AP) Conductor Eugene Ormandy, who says he will stop conducting "only when I drop," has asked to be relieved as music director of the Philadelphia Orchestra at the end of the 1979-80 season, a spokesman for the orchestra said yesterday.

Ormandy, 79, has held the post since 1936 and is only the fourth conductor to lead the orchestra since its founding in 1900. When he walks off the podium at a concert in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., in August 1980, he will have spent 44 years in the job. After he steps down, Ormandy will continue with the orchestra as conductor laureate, spokesman Louis Hood of the Philadelphia Orchestra Association said. Ormandy's announcement comes after rumors of unrest from the orchestra, including complaints that his ability to instill excitement had dwindled and that his criticism of his musicians' playing had created resentment among them. "Eugene Ormandy has been a close personal friend for many years," said C.

wanton Balis board chairman of the association. The orchestra's board of directors, acting on Ormandy's advice, has held discussions with Riccardo Muti, the first to hold the title of principal guest conductor, on his future with the orchestra.

Third Blackout Hits 30,000 In Boston Area BOSTON (AP) The lights went out again yesterday for about 30.000 residents of the trendy Back Bay neighborhood and officials said it may be another day before power is restored. A third blackout in three days cramped the bustling style of this urban enclave, which one wag dubbed "Black Bay." Elevators were stuck, apartments were dark, refrigerators were dripping, many shops were closed and grocers were worried about piles of food going bad.

A Boston Edison spokesman said the latest blackout, which struck about 10 a.m., probably would continue until this morning while linemen wrestled with fire-damaged, overloaded cables. Meanwhile, the densely packed neighborhood of stylish shops, posh hotels and expensive apartments made do with warm drinks, cold showers and breathless treks up seldom-used stairs. At the elegant Copley Plaza Hotel, set ablaze last week by an arsonist, doormen used flashlights to escort guests through the cave-dark marble halls. The trouble began Sunday noon when a fire in a manhole destroyed one of seven main cables that feed the Back Bay. When utility workers tried to turn the electricity back on later that day, flames burst out of dozens of manholes.

And this has been the problem that has plagued the power company ever since. No one can explain exactly why it happens. Power finally returned Monday morn-ing, but it went off again that night. Lottery Number Yesterday's Daily Number 467. Thirty-one former employees of the bankrupt Keystone Harmony Dairy yesterday sued one of the firm's officers for money they said he owes them.

The ex-employees claimed in the suit that John R. Birmingham asked them last September to loan the hardpressed firm to help it stay on its feet. Birmingham then reneged on a promise to match the employee contributions with $75,000 of his own, the suit claimed. It said most of the money loaned still is to be repaid According to the suit, Birmingham called the 65 employees together last Sept. 5 and told them a loan from them was the only way to meet obligations then about to fall due.

The dairy, at 1231 Western Northside, was the city's oldest but had been experiencing financial difficulties for at least a couple of years. Birmingham, of 809 W. Waldheim Northside, was president and the major stockholder of Keystone Dairy, one of two firms that made up the enterprise. According to the suit, 65 employees loaned the dairy a total of $62,800. It said Birmingham expressed satisfaction with that sum.

But, claimed the employees, Birmingham failed to loan the firm the $75,000 with which he had promised to match their contributions. The suit said that failure was the sole cause for the bank- Surviving are his wife, Gertrude; two ruptcy of the dairy early in January. The suit said only a portion of the employee loan money has been repaid, along with the first three months of interest. The workers claimed Birmingham owes them wages, fringe vacation and severance pay and the value of fringe benefits from the dairy's last few months of operation. They also sued for the value of wages and fringe benefits lost since the bankruptcy, and anticipated losses of future wages because of their expected inability to find other employment that pays as well as their dairy jobs.

Most of the 31 men claimed they still are unemployed. Some of the others said their new jobs pay significantly less than did their Keystone Harmony jobs. The suit did not state a total of the claims made by the employees against Birmingham. Most of the 31 men claimed amounts between $4,000 and $7,000. Most of the men have filed claims against the dairy in a bankruptcy proceeding now pending in Federal District Court.
