Howard Metzenbaum, an Ohio Democrat who was a feisty self-made millionaire before he began a long career fighting big business in the Senate, died Wednesday night. He was 90.
Metzenbaum died at his home near Fort Lauderdale, said Joel Johnson, his former chief of staff. No cause was given. During 18 years on Capitol Hill, until his retirement in 1995, Metzenbaum came to be known as "Senator No" and "Headline Howard" for his abilities to block legislation and get publicity for himself. He was a cantankerous firebrand who didn't need a microphone to hold a full auditorium spellbound while dropping rhetorical bombs on big oil companies, the insurance industry, savings and loans, and the National Rifle Association, to name just a few favorite targets. Unabashedly liberal, the former labor lawyer and union lobbyist considered himself a champion of workers and was a driving force behind the law requiring 60-day notice of plant closings.
When other liberals shied away from that label, Metzenbaum embraced it, winning re-election in 1988 from Ohio voters who chose Republicans for governor and president, and by wider margins than either George Voinovich or George H.W. Bush. That victory produced Metzenbaum's third, final and most productive term in the Senate. When it was over, in 1995, he started a new career as consumer advocate, heading the Consumer Federation of America. Metzenbaum made his first big money when he and a partner got the idea for a well-lighted, 24-hourstaffed parking lot at Cleveland Hopkins Airport.
The enterprise expanded to Cincinnati and San Juan, Rico, and eventually became APCOA, the world's largest parkinglot company. SAM C. POINTER JR. U.S. district judge during desegregation Retired U.S.
District Judge Sam C. Pointer who received death threats because of his rulings forcing school integration in Birmingham, during nearly 30 years on the bench, has died. He was 73. Pointer died Saturday at a hospital after suffering from an illness, said his wife, Paula. He had retired from the court about eight years ago and joined the Birmingham law firm of Lightfoot, Franklin White.
"The legal community revered Judge Pointer for both his brilliance and his wonderful temperament," said Chief U.S. District Judge Sharon Lovelace Blackburn. Pointer issued controversial decisions as Birmingham struggled to desegregate its school systems in the 1970s. He ordered the busing of children to achieve integration in the Jefferson County schools. Because of threats on his life during the school cases, he was placed under round-the-clock protection by deputy U.S.
marshals. Pointer also presided over the complex litigation of nearly 26,000 silicone-gel breast implant lawsuits in the 1990s. ELSEWHERE Richard "Dick" Burke, founder of Trek Bicycle died March 10 in Milwaukee from complications from heart surgery, said his son, John Burke, the company's president. He was 73. Trek is known among cyclists for making the bikes Lance Armstrong rode in his Tour de France victories.
Phillip Lloyd Powell, a self-taught furniture designer who, working largely out of the public eye, produced elegant, sculptural pieces that are prized by collectors, died March 9 in Langhorne, Pa. He was 88 and lived in New Hope, Pa. Powell died after a fall, said George Gilpin, a friend and business associate.
