The crushing of a 21~year-old if he hadn't apparently ran into‘make the legislation," he said.‘ laborer when a crane toppled the path of the toppling crane, on him has prompted a coron-iboom. The boom. he added. was with Maurice Fournier. inspector the operating engineers er‘s jury to recommend tliatlcapable of lifting a much heav- branch of the Department of anyone operating such equipâ€" ment must have completed a proper training program. Making the recommendation Thursday of last week was a five-man coroner's jury called to inquire into the sudden death July 6 of Guiseppe Bar-‘ bato of Downsview. The accident occurred in Maple on the property of the Dominion Welding Engineering Co., where he was employed. The iury cited a contri- buting factor to the acci- dent as being the insuf- ficient experience of the operator of the crane â€"- Joseph Rlugholer, 38. of 75 16th Avenue, Thornhill â€" to cope with a heavier than usual load. Tnexperience. the jury de- cided. led Mr. Ringhofer to op- erate the hoist "at an angle which placed the machine at a disadvantage causing it to top- p e." Mr. Ringhofer testified that he had operated the crane on a number of occasions in the normal course of his employ- ment and had experienced no previous difficulty. The witness said that on the day of Mr. Barbato's accident he was in the process of hoist- ing a 2.000 pound round cylin- der plate for inspection. Mr. Barbato. he said. was on the ground and had helped clamp the plate to the crane's cable and was standing beside the machine. "I had the one end of the plate off the ground about two feet." Mr. Ringhofer testified, "and was backing the machine away from it up a slight incline when the crane started to go.” Mr. Ringhofer said he saw the deceased “start to move away from the plate but I can‘t say whether he ran or not.“ He later ventured the opinion that Barbato might have been saved W“ PINDER BROS.

Mr. Ringhofer also told 1 Assistant Crown Attorney . i John Lawlor that he didn‘t have a crane operator’s lic- . ence because “the company the particular . told me I didn‘t need one i I for this size of machine." Later evidence revealed that ‘the Ontario Department of: Labor doesn‘t require an oper- ator to be licensed unless the. crane is over 25 hp, The machw ine in question had a h.p. rating; of 16.9. David Edward Russell. of To-,: ronto. an industrial X-rayi technician. testified he was pre-‘ paring to test the plate for de- fects when the mishap occurred; “It happened so fast." hel said. “that I have little con-.- ception of it. The operator pick-j it in a vertical position so I could x-ray it. “I was looking down at, the: time when I heard a shout or, a noise of some kind. I looked. up and the crane was already. on top of the deceased." Thef crane, he said. was only bear-‘ ing part of the weight of the plate. l Hugh Adams. a draughisman with Vaughan Township. said there was a slight incline in the area. He provided drawings showing the rate of decline ofi the slope. l Patrick O‘Reilly. industrial safety officer for the Depart- ment of Labor. said he felt the accident occurred "because the crane was operated on the grade. That was the chief cause in my opinion plus the weight of the plate." He was asked by Mr. Lawlor if a licensed operator would have been aware of the poten- tial danger and have avoided it. “I think he would have," replied Mr. O'Reilly. He added that the question of whether all crane operators should be licensed was up to the province to decide. “I feel all crane operators should be licensed but I don’t Labor, stated he had operated cranes for a number of years. "I'm an operator myself.“ he said. "and I believe I would have recognized the danger. But I don‘t know if everyone would have." He was asked if he didn‘t Ithink all crane operators should be licensed in the interest of safety. “In my view, yes." he ans- wered. Pasquale Defilippis. of To- ronto, an employee at Domin» ion. testified that some of the: plates or material moved around at the plant were some- times too heavy for the crane. On these occasions. he said. he dragged the material on the‘ crane instead of lifting it com- pletely off the ground. He stated that the shop fore- ed up the plate in order to putfmen always had the keys to the study At crane and named the person to use the machine on any day. i York Central Hospital Pathfi ologist Dr. Donald Guthrie stated that the immediate cause of death was due to multiplel fractures of the skull with at-‘ tendant injuries being lacera- tions to the back of the brain. "This is usually fatal." he I said. “and in this case was the: immediate cause of death.“ He said there was no alcohol con- tent in the victim's blood. "There were other injuriesfli he said. “but these were of a‘ less severe nature." The crane involved in the accident was referred to during the hearing as a “tri-cycle-like" vehicle with two wheels in the front and one in the rear. Its make was described as a Hyster Karry Krane Model K.D. Also present at the inquest were investigating Constable Jack Hamilton and Sgt. Thomas Shields. Both are members of the Vaughan Township Police. Coroner was Dr. B. W. Granton of Richmond Hill. Jury members were: Foreman Robert Brown, W. G. Davis, John P. Stephenson, James A.

Readers are reminded that the touring Canadian Armed Forces Military Tattoo is being staged all this week at the ONE and will be there until Septem- ber 4. The tattoo. which inâ€" ludes an ear-splitting re-enact- ment of a World War 1 infantry attack, depicts a spectacular history of the Canadian Forces which no one should miss. Part of the tattoo recently appeared on Ed Sullivan‘s TV show and it is interesting to note that the Department of National Defence subsequently turned down an offer by Ameri- can impresario Sol Hurok to put the tattoo on tour in ten US. cities. The department is said to feel that servicemen in the giant show â€"â€" the cast num- bers 1.700 â€"â€" must return to their regular duties after the show concludes October 10 at Shawinigan. Quebec.
