Man A Salt Lake City woman has filed suit in federal court against 19 corporations. claiming asbestos products they produced and marketed led to her husband's death in 1984. Shirley Stevens Hanrath filed the wrongful death suit in U S.

Carl was exposed to asbestos from 1949-8"while installing and removing insulation and other asbestos products." the suit states. That exposure caused "peritoneal mesothelioma." or a tumor of the abdomen's membrane lining, from which Mr. Hanrath died in February 1984.

The school where he is principal has an enrollment of more than 700 students. Also, during visits to the classroom he writes comments on children's papers and uses a rubber stamp labeled The Principals Stamp of Approval.
