Policeman, man in fight facing trial By Jim Gallagher Post-Gazette Staff Writer A Pittsburgh policeman and a Northside man both must stand trial on charges arising from a barroom brawl last May, District Justice Robert Tucker ruled yesterday.

Branko Kapusta, 31, said the policeman pounded him with a club while he was handcuffed. Kapusta's story was supported by his father-in-law, District Justice Charles Morrissey, who said he saw the beating. A prisoner in the city jail also testified that he watched the policeman bounce the handcuffed Kapusta around a cell. Officer Earl Woodyard, 36, charged that Kapusta was not band-cuffed and hit him first witb a "sucker, punch" to the mouth. Woodyard said he used a blackjack to subdue Kapusta after being punched, kicked and suffering broken teeth in the battle.

Woodyard's story was supported by another policeman, who said he saw Kapusta throw the punch as be was being led without handcuffs into the Public Safety Building lockup. District Justice Tucker did not believe District Justice Morrisey's story about watching a handcuffed Kapusta beaten. Tucker said Kapusta could not have been handcuffed during the beating. If he were, Tucker said, the policeman could not have suffered the broken tooth. Woodyard pulled fragments of the tooth from his pocket.

Tucker said the policeman may have used too much force. Tucker dismissed felony charges against both men. Instead, he ordered the policeman to trial for simple assault and Kapusta to trial for simple assault and failure to disperse. The trouble began with a donny-brook at Mahoney's Bar on the Northside last May 27. Woodyard and other policemen twice ordered a crowd to get off the sidewalk.

Woodyard said Kapusta refused and was placed in the paddy wagon. On the ride Downtown, Kapusta shouted obscenities and was "unbearably obnoxious," Woodyard said. Woodyard and his female partner took Kapusta out of the van and began walking him up the sidewalk to the Downtown lockup when Kapusta whirled and slugged Woodyard in the mouth, Woodyard said. Woodyard said he threw Kapusta over a car and tried to handcuff him. The officer said he pulled out his blackjack and hit Kapusta on the shoulders, Woodyard said he hit Kapusta again on the head when the man kept kicking and punching.

Kapusta was handcuffed and pushed into a cell when he refused to go in peaceably, Woodyard said. Policeman Tim Kirsch said he was standing nearby and saw Kapusta throw the punch. Kapusta, a construction laborer, said he hadn't participated in the brawl, but was trying to leave the bar because his baby had been injured at home. Kapusta said he tried to explain about his baby to the police, but Woodyard grabbed him and pushed his head against the paddy wagon door, saying "I'll show you what I think of you tough guys." Kapusta said he complained loudly on the- ride Downtown, saying, You arrested rne for nothing. He said Woodyard pulled him out of the wagon and handcuffed him.

"The next thing I know he was beating me over the head with a club," Kapusta said. In the cell block hallway, Kapusta said, he told the policeman he knew his badge number and "I'm taking you to court." Lottery numbers Yesterday's daily number 528.

There is a means of eliminating it; that it can be cleaned up. That intrigued them. So I really started then a long-term smoke control campaign. The problem was we couldn't get smoke control out of politics until David L. Lawrence came on the scene as mayor and John J.

Kane as chairman of the board of Allegheny County commissioners. "It took about 30 years to get smoke control out of politics and only five years to clean up after that. Seven major bills went through the state Legislature and did the job." Weidlein said that in all of his years here "the Mellons could not nave treated me nicer. They took a liking to me and treated me as though I were a son," he said. "R.K.

Richard King Mellon was a young fellow then. He would sit on the library floor after dinner, as I talked with his father, R.B., and his uncle, A.W." Weidlein recalled that Paul Mellon, son of Andrew spoke at testimonial dinners held for him on successive nights to accommodate all his friends and admirers here in May 1967. He added: "Paul was telling the audience how I extracted copper from low-grade ore and a cure for epilepsy from something else and so on, then he paused, looked out at the audience and said with a grin, 'But Weidlein was most successful at extracting greenbacks from the Mellons." Weidlein described his relationship with the late investment banker Bernard Baruch as "very close" and said he was friendly with Presidents Herbert Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt. "I knew Hoover better because he had been an engineer," he said.

"They were both good listeners. They were searching for information. They checked your information for accuracy, then they backed you." Weidlein worked for the federal government as a dollar-a-year man during World Wars I and II and is generally credited with bringing together the chemists who developed synthetic rubber for the War Production Board during World War II. He related that the United States didn't have any chemical industry at the time of World War I but built rapidly from then on. Weidlein was born July 14, 1887, in Augusta, Kan.

His father was a rancher who later became an oil developer. Weidlein remembered the delight of "riding fences as a kid" and seeking shelter during electrical storms, unlike any he ever encountered elsewhere. He was a graduate of the University of Kansas. When he became director of Mellon Institute, he was paid $5,000 a year. "It was a princely sum for that time 1921 and I was the envy of our profession, which was very small," he explained.

Under the direction of Weidlein, the institute concentrated on cooperation between science and industry with industry paying $800,000 into the institute by 1930. The institute furnished the building and basic equipment, while various manufacturers paid the salary of the industrial fellow ($1,500) and his expenses. A.W. Mellon had remarked that when Weidlein took over, chemistry was regarded "as a stepchild rather than a blood relative." The building, which houses Mellon Institute at South Bellefield and Fifth avenues, was completed in 1937. It is now part of Carnegie-Mellon University.

"R.B. Mellon did not live to see it," Weidlein recalled. "But A.W. Mellon, who had been ill, gave the dedication speech. Although he hated to give speeches, he enjoyed this one.

He even agreed to a radio interview afterward unheard of for him. He died three months later." Weidlein has been awarded many medals for distinguished work and served as an officer and mamber of many organizations concerned with science. But the award that gave him the most pleasure was the Priestley Medal from the American Chemical Society in 1948. He had served as president of the society in 1937. He was a member of the Chemist Club of New York and the Du-quesne, Rolling Rock, University and Pittsburgh Golf clubs.

Weidlein began achieving his goal of ridding the district of most of its soot and smoke in 1947 while he was chairman of the Allegheny Conference on Community Development, an organization established by the business, industrial and political leaders of the county, to deal then with these problems: Smoke control; flood control; stream pollution abatement; establishment of Point Park; the redevelopment of Downtown; and the shortage of housing. The conference, which he served from 1944 until 1950, is credited with bringing about the renaissance of Pittsburgh. Weidlein is survived by three sons, Edward R. a retired chemist who now lives in New York City and Ligonier, Robert B. of Greens-burg, Westmoreland County, a retired Koppers Co.

Inc. executive; John a retired manager of commercial development for PPG Industries who lives in Morewood Heights; 10 grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren. Private burial services will be held today in the Ligonier Valley Cemetery. A memorial service will be held at 4 p.m. Friday in St.

Michael's of The Valley Episcopal Church, Rector. Friends will be received afterward in the parish house. The family suggests that memorial contributions may be made to a favorite charity. and laws. He turned to Frankfurter, the Harvard Law School professor who had been supplying Washington with brilliant students since the administration of Woodrow Wilson.

Frankfurter sent Cohen and Corcoran, and together they came, up with laws to correct stock market abuses that had wiped out so many novice investors and ways to prime the pump of a dried-up economy. Corcoran's talent was as a push-er-thougb of legislation. He whisked about the Capitol's corridors, arguing, cajoling, pleading or threatening lawmakers to line up support for FDR's then-radical ideas. Cohen, tall but slouched, was a gentle, sad-faced pessimist, content to remain in the background, as the meticulous draftsman, the intellectual. Both were gluttons for work.

They shared a Georgetown apartment known as "the little red house on Street" and often WASHINGTON (AP) Cohen and Corcoran the shy, think-it-through Jew, the outgoing, get-it-done Irishman: It was a team that commanded Washington's attention in the early New Deal and reshaped America's way of doing business. They were called "the Gold Dust Twins" from a soap advertising slogan of the day (' Let the Gold Dust Twins do your Or some called them Felix Frankfurter's "two chief little hot dogs." The shy, intellectual Benjamin V. Cohen, 88, senior partner of this unlikely pairing, died Monday of pneumonia after two weeks in a hospital. He had lived alone, a bachelor with his dog who had been looked in on by friends. Thomas "The Cork" Corcoran died in 1981.

When Franklin D. Roosevelt took office in 1933, he said America had nothing to fear but fear itself, but he needed more than hopeful words to revive confidence. He needed ideas worked all night, figuring out how to overcome objections their bills had raised the previous day. Together, they planned the Tennessee Valley Authority, Ftderal Housing Administration, the first Wage and Hour Law, the Electric Farm and Home Authority. Their masterpiece was a body of law curbing Wall Street's malpractices.

They drafted the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1.35, helped enact it and, as special assistants to the attorney general, defended it against 81 lawsuits brought by holding companies. Washington lawyer Joseph L. Rauh a New Deal disciple of the two, said yesterday that it was Cohen's idea to transfer 50 old destroyers to hard-pressed Great Britain at a time that Roosevelt was sympathetic but immobilized by a national sentiment for strict neutrality. "Ben was the intellectual leader of the effort to prepare this country to stop Hitler," Rauh said. Sandra Berkman, industrialist's wife Sandra W.

Berkman, 69, wife of Steubenville industrialist Louis Berkman, died Monday in her resi-. dence in the Park Plaza Apartments in Oakland. Mrs. Berkman also was a longtime resident of Steubenville. She was active in the Ohio Chapter of the American Heart Association; General Federation of Women's Clubs; B'nai B'rith Women; and the National Council of Jewish Women.

She was a member of Rodef Shalom Congregation in Pittsburgh and Temple Beth Israel in Steubenville. In addition to her husband, she is survived by a son, Marshall and a daughter, Donna Paul, both of Pittsburgh; six grandchildren; two sisters, Helen Stadler of New York and Pearl Weiss of Pittsburgh; and a brother, J. Herman Weiss of Doo-ora, Washington County. Services will be at 11 a.m. tomorrow in Ralph Schugar Chapel, 5509 Centre Sbadyside.
