A man says a chunk of ice that fell from an airplane and through his roof will be expensive to clean up. Larry Citrano, 49, said Tuesday he and his family of six were awakened Monday by a crash he first thought was a meteor. It turned out to be a chunk of waste water that leaked from a plane's lavatory, froze and peeled off. The ice smashed a hole through his roof, a widows' walk and a ceiling, before lodging in the pantry, Citrano said. He estimated it will cost him $2,500 to repair damage. A safety inspector for the Fed- (UPI) 14-in- eral Aviation Administration called the incident "a rarity." "The thing that disturbs me most is the FAA informs me there's no way they can determine what airplane dropped the ice block," said Citrano. "They just can't go around dropping ice bombs on people. They just can't do W W J 1 rT -1 fm k " & my SPRAY ' OsJ yt)88 Y0UR rMJy ,o uw ,pfay bot. n Qn r vV I SYSTEMIC ROSE & FLOWER CARE J f Xll Sl XA size. ,le- Njl &S) OR rJ 1 Stops weed and gross growth up to year.

(UPI) -Twill no executive dining rooms or reserved parking places and workers will be able to stop the assembly line for quality problems under a new Japanese-styl- e work system at a refurbished Pontiac plant.

I in- - here Tuesday discussed the system with reporters at the plant where the new Pontiac Fiero sportscar will be produced. About 2,200 workers will begin e work this summer on the new compact. The fiberglass car will go on sale this fall at a price between $8,000 and $10,000. Pontiac is shooting for production of about 70,000 in the 1984 model mid-engin- , year. The plant where the car will be built has been overhauled to replace an old Pontiac assembly plant and companion Fisher Body facility. Inside, the plant looks much the same as any assembly plant except for its cleanliness and a group of robots waiting to begin their tasks. The big difference is the new work system drawn up by General Motors Corp. and the United Auto Workers. Hourly workers must training complete a unique program to take part. At the base of the system are assembly workers, who will be referred to as "operators." They will work in teams of 12 to 15 on various jobs. Other teams involve floor supervisors, materials and maintenance workers as well as 1 C The system copies many of the highly touted work methods of Japanese auto plants, including allowing any worker to stop the production line for a manufacturing or quality problem.

There is one parking lot for all employees, one dining area and a dress code that makes suits and ties optional. Hourly workers will be allowed to have radios on the job and can take cars home overnight for evaluation. Officials for both the union and the company praise the new system, but both also are taking a cautious view about achieving instant harmony in a company known for constant differences. "We do work very, very closely with the union, but nobody should work under the misconception that we have a love-i- n with them," said Dennis Pawley, general superintendent of the plant. Jerry Lewis, chairman of the s'iop committee for UAW Local 653, said workers are willing to "give this a chance." "They are leery of management's commitment because management has in the past started a lot of programs and let them fall by the wayside," Lewis said. "I don't think this is one of them. I'm committed and convinced that this is going to work." f jj (5)88 FB XZ&. ICZT SoBM 40-ho-ur administrators. - 1J taa I H ftff I PI3' feJUP ? 1 AT 1 5 OREM PLAZA 157 N. STATE ST.
