Hartford Courant from Hartford, Connecticut • 16

THE HARTFORD COURANT: Friday, April 14, 1978 Courant Writer, Travel Editor Dies Continued from Page 1 individual editors were assigned to the magazine and entertainment. However, Massaro took on added duty in 1975 when he was put in charge of designing an electronic news editing system in which stories would be typed directly i into computers and edited on video screens. The system's installation, still in the planning stage, will be a milestone in The Courant's history. Massaro participated in another milestone just last November, when he rode the Air France supersonic airliner Concorde on its inaugural passenger flight from Paris to New York City. Among the other passengers were designer Pierre Cardin and newscaster Walter Cronkite.

He leaves daughter from the first marriage, Katherine Massaro of Milford; a son by the second marriage, Christopher Massaro 0 of Hartford; his mother, Mrs. Joseph Massaro of Milford and a sister, Mrs. JoAnn Formichella of West Haven. The West Haven Funeral Home, 662 Savin West Haven, has charge of funeral arrangements, which were incomplete Thursday. Massaro was a man of giant girth--he indulged a passion for fine food and drink--and glided through The Courant's corridors like a ship and sat at his various desks like a boat at its moorings.

At the state desk he puffed pungent cigars and meticulously deposited the volumes of paper he crumpled each day on the floor. He said the mess showed how busy he was. He told his reporters, "When you cover a fire, bring back a story that makes me smell it." Massaro himself was a vivid writer. In 1970 he was exported to New Haven to rewrite information being filed by a team of reporters covering the Black Panther Mayday demonstrations. He had a streak of irreverency that made him deplore timidity whether in the paper or in the people it covered.

Once Massaro was called by a new reporter worried that the board of selectmen in the town he was covering had censured him for writing an accurate story they found embarrassing. Massaro responded, "That's terrific. I wish someone had censured me when I was just starting out in this business." Years later he told another reporter, "They say you meet interesting, people in the newspaper business. I have met some of the biggest idiots in the world." His interests were as varied as his travels, which were worldwide. An outdoorsman, he hunted in this country and Europe and fished in the Caribbean.

He explored Mayan ruins in Yucatan and reported about life on nuclear submarines. Massaro had a special attachment for the sea. He kept his own sailboat and wrote numerous stories about submarines. In 1966, he dove in a mini-sub built by the Electric Boat shipyard in Groton. His story began: "For rent.

Sporty two-man submarine. Be the first on your block to explore the Continental Shelf. Dive up to 2,000 feet in complete comfort." He also had a special attachment to a corncob pipe that somewhere between the state desk and Sunday room replaced Parodi cigars as his preferred smoke. The pipe frequently found its way into the lighter columns Massaro wrote with a self-deprecating humor. He found "himself apologizing for the pipe at a gourmet dinner smoking was taboo; it interferes with the taste buds.

Reporting on a visit to the Great Pyramids, Massaro said he had removed the pipe while mounting a camel to avoid looking as foolish as he felt. "The animal pitched like a dink in a squall," he wrote. Massaro grew up in Connecticut. His father and uncle operated frozen custard stands at various shore points and later owned restaurants. Massaro finished three years at St.

Lawrence University in Canton, N.Y., before the Korean War interrupted his education. He came to The Courant after the war and was graduated cum laude from the University of Hartford in 1961. Four years later he went back to school elementary school--and spent a day learning about modern teaching techniques. His feature story began, "I was the dumbest kid in the class." He found the new math particularly baffling. Massaro was married twice.

The first marriage ended with the death of his wife from cancer and the second ended in divorce. Gold's Lawyer To Ask For Probe of Threats By THOMAS D. WILLIAMS The new defense lawyer for convicted murderer Murray R. Gold, a former New York stockbroker, said Thursday he will ask for an FBI investigation of threats made against himself, a Waterbury policeman and a member of Gold's defense committee. Waterbury attorney Timothy C.

Moynahan said the threats began Wednesday with a "harassing phone call" to Pamela Rocco, a spokeswoman for the Gold defense committee for the last three years. The male caller, Moynahan, threatened to kill Mr. Rocco's son after he got out of school. Later the same day, said Moynahan, he learned that Waterbury Police Sgt. Donald "Stubby" McKay, a cousin of Ms.

Rocco, discovered a threatening letter in his said police locker. The lawyer the letter insinuated that McKay was helping Gold's defense efforts when actually "he has no connection with the case whatsoever." The letter threatened McKay and his family, said Moynahan, and also made threatening references about him. That same day, said Moynahan, he received a call from a Waterbury policeman who said the defense investigation was stirring up those hostile to Gold's cause. Moynahan said he knows the policeman well, but refused to identify him. He said the policeman told him that although he was not really familiar with the Gold investigation, the policeman believed that police investigators had botched the case.

William G. Millikin Thursday denied an extradition request from Gov. George C. Wallace that would have sent 60-year-old Lizzy Williams back to Alabama to serve the remainder of a 218-year prison term. Millikin's decision will permit Miss Williams to again conduct streetcorner revivals without the fear that some day she will be returned to the prison system she fled in 1951 after serving nine years.

"While I am mindful of Alabama's legitimate interest in securing the return of escaped prisoners, I have concluded that the ends of justice will not be served by Miss Williams' return," Milliken said in a letter to Wallace. Miss Williams is now 60 years old. According to records of the Michigan State Police, she has had no criminal involvement in the 27 years she has lived in Michigan. In view of this, I believe that no matter what her past transgressions, little would be served by further incarceration. Miss Williams, a stoopshouldered evangelist and parttime housekeeper, was sentenced to 218 years in prison in 1942 because she lied to protect her boyfriend Andra Rubinelli, 15, of Michigan City, died Thursday in a hospital in Michigan City where she was being kept alive in a respirator.

Her parents, Peter and Joan Rubinelli, had sought a court order to take her off the respirator. The girl had been in a coma since March 26 (AP). Deaths BOOTH. In Hartford. Arthur G.

Lawrence O'Toole Church, New Britain Hartford. Physicians Have Hope For Boy Waterbury police said they had no knowledge of threats against Moynahan, Ms. Rocco or McKay. "None of this has been brought to the attention of the local police," Lt. Ernest Deal said Thursday.

"I'm surprised they would talk to the media without getting this on paper with the police," he said. "Because of efforts to suppress the defense investigation and certain information surrounding the case," said Moynahan, "I'm going to ask for an FBI investigation. I'm not sure they'll give me one, but I'm going to ask anyway. "You can't ask the Waterbury police to police themselves," said Moynahan. Moynahan said that Ms.

Rocco has received a number of threatening calls during her work for Gold's defense committee. Because of these prior threats, said Moynahan, he at first didn't take the new harassing call, received by Ms. Rocco Wednesday, seriously. However, Moynahan continued, the threatening letter to McKay and his own conversation about the case with his friend on the police force convinced him to ask for a federal investigation. McKay could not be reached for comment.

Gold, 44, is appealing his November 1976 Waterbury Superior Court murder conviction to the state Supreme Court to ask for a new trial. On Jan. 26, 1977, Gold was sentenced to 25-years-to-life in prison for the slayings of his ex-wife's parents, Irving and Rhoda Pasternak of Waterbury. The slayings occurred in the Pasternaks' home on Sept. 26, 1974.

BOSTON (UPI) Doctors say a 10-year-old boy whose legs were almost severed by the wheels of a freight train during a sledding accident could some day walk again. Dr. Max L. Ramenofsky, a Boston Floating Hospital pediatric surgeon, said Lee Stimson has regained feeling: in both legs two months after the fourth grader skidded into the path of a moving freight train. Ramenofsky said it was, "extremely rare, if not unprecedented, for such injuries to be successfully repaired," but he expressed optimism that therapy would; restore the boy's use of his legs.

Stimson was injured Feb. 14 near his home in South Boston on a railroad embankment. When one of his companions freed him from beneath the train, Lee's legs were almost severed and his pelvis crushed. Lee, the youngest child of Henry and Jean Stimson, re-; ceived more than 20 pints of blood in the next 17 hours while a team of 35 doctors and nurses performed of his left foot was; amputated seven days after initial surgery. Doctors estimated the boy.

will be hospitalized "for at" least another month" and rehabilitation will continue for at least six months. "He's a little depressed," Ramenofsky said of his; young patient, "but he's improving rapidly, asking when he can go home because now he knows he can go home.".
