(Ap) - Federal officials said yesterday that a troublesome gas bubble no longer poses any significant danger of explosion at the Three Mile Island nuclear plant, advancing efforts to Bring the disable reactor to cold shutdown. Declaring “the bubble has been eliminated for all practical purposes,’ Harold Denton of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission tola reporters, ‘ T think the danger point is considerably down from where it was a few days ago.” “I would say there is no more bubble at the top of the core... We no longer consider a hydrogen explosion a significant problem,” he said. .“The site remains stable...the bubble poses no further significant safety problem.” Meanwhile, speculation arose that the cripple reactor might , have to be junked, but one NRC official said he doubted that. While Denton, President Carter’s special representative at the scene, held the briefing, tension was casing in the weeklong crisis caused by the worst nuclear mishap in U.S. history. Civil defense official estimated that between 80,000 and 250,000 of the region's 950,000 people had temorarily pulled out, but thousands were returning yesterday and some scnools were reopened. Askea when the emergency would be over at Three Mile Island, Denton said, ‘‘We are right now developing and looking at plans of the most effective way to bring this reactor to a cold shutdown.” He declined to predict exactly when that might be accomplished.

"Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town" Chicago may have ''toddled'' when Fred Fisher wrote those lyrics in 1922, but for 840 ATOSers it certainly didn't in 1985.

They showed us pipe organs in sites that took us to Joliet, Waukegan, Hinsdale, Rockford and Lan­ sing as well as to all corners of the city and its suburbs.

    Bill Veeck: Remembering the good, the bad and the in-between on his 100th birthday By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, February 7th, 2014 A man with the ultimate positive image as a friend of the baseball fan, Bill Veeck might have been the first to say that, yeah, he had feet (in his case, one foot) of clay. A speed reader of books, Veeck knew all about protag- onists who had many sides, not every one of them he- roic. It made a balanced portrayal for the book con- sumer. In that case, Veeck, whose 100th birthday is being marked Feb. 9, was the ultimate balanced man. His baseball-owner opponents would have added “un” to the front of “balanced.” In the process of bearding the game’s establishment, in attempting to be in front of trends to make money, draw more fans and ad- vance a personal, liberal philosophy, star promoter Veeck both succeeded and failed.

He was a true Re- Shirt Bill" for his refusal to wear ties naissance man, whose life impacted more than just in that button-down, dress-up era. events on the diamond. Veeck saved the White Sox for Chicago when there were no other local buyers in 1975. He gave Hall of Famer Tony La Russa his managerial start in 1979. Veeck prodded Har- ry Caray to start singing in the seventh inning, a tradition that has long outlasted Caray’s death.
