Weather picture by Laura Blythe Grade 1 St. Gabriel School Whitehall Almanac ranking is based on 9 categories don't lie to the public," Savageau said. "The first perception is you're lying because Pittsburgh is No. 1." Woody Paige, a columnist for the Denver Post, wrote a column about the ratings in which he stated, "I'd rather be a toilet seat in Denver than the mayor of Pittsburgh." He also wrote: "Pittsburgh is a great city if you like women with big calves and you're in the plate glass business." That was the reaction Savageau feared.

iV' "-V-- So when Pittsburgh turned up in the top slot in the almanac, Savageau said, he asked for a meeting with officials from Rand McNally to decide if they wanted to publish the book with that result or what they wanted to do. "They said, 'You wrote the book; we stand behind Savageau said. "Rand McNally didn't understand what all the fuss was," Savageau. said. Pittsburgh's rise to the top got help when Beaver County dropped out of the Metropolitan Statistical Area, Savageau said.

Beaver County finished 246th in the overall rankings. Savageau also said the city's decline as a major steel producer is as much responsible for its rating as' are any other criteria. "By J. Kenneth Evans Post-Gazette Staff Writer. Mayor Caliguiri attempted to present the authors of the "Places Rated Almanac" with a key to the "city yesterday, saying the No.

1 rating will open doors for the city. But author David Savageau told Caliguiri he could not accept the key. Savageau said he was so worried people would think the rating was fixed that he could not take the key. "Rand McNally publisher of the almanac is so paranoid that the fix is in. And so am quite frankly," Savageau said.

Co-author Richard Boyer accept-; ed the key and later defended his i action, saying, "It's not like it's an envelope filled with cash." Savageau and Boyer visited the I city to meet with reporters and defend Pittsburgh's ranking. The city was ranked fourth in the first edition, published in 1981. Caliguiri said the rating the book ranks 329 metropolitan areas will give Pittsburgh an added advantage in luring conventions, businesses and visitors to the city. William Parker, president of the Greater Pittsburgh Convention and Visitors Bureau, said plans are under way for a national advertising and public relations campaign to reinforce the No. 1 ranking.

According to the Associated Press, Parker also said the bureau plans to encourage visits here by national travel writers and other journalists. Savageau said he realized the problems with Pittsburgh's being rated No. 1. "If you're going to sell books, you Pittsburgh's top ranking in the "Places Rated is based on the city's performance nine quality-of -life categories, Here is a breakdown of how Pittsburgh fared in each category: Education. The authors considered the pupilteacher ratios (Pittsburgh's is 13.83 pupils to one teacher), the cost of educating one pupil ($3,079 in Pittsburgh), the average monthly teacher salary and an effort index (1.201), which is the amount of money an area devotes to its public schools.

It also considers the number of two-year (19) and four-year (13) colleges in the area. Pittsburgh placed seventh. Philadelphia was first. The arts. The ranking is based on the number of museums (three), public radio stations (two), public television stations (two), universities (four), symphony orchestras (nine), theaters (one), opera companies (one), dance companies (six), the number of books in the public libraries (2,039,057) and the number of books checked out yearly Pittsburgh was 12th.

New York was tops. Recreation. This considers the hospitals' (11), medical schools (one), cardiac rehabilitation centers (four), hospices (one), cost index for health care (excellent), type of air Eollution (sulfur dioxide). Pitts-urgh was 14th. New York was first.

Housing. Included the average cost qf a house property taxes, percentage of homes built; before 1940 (43.4 percent), number of hours air conditioning is needed (471), major source of energy (natural gas and electricity), annual cost for mortgage and taxes utility costs Pittsburgh was 186th. Joplin, was first. Climate and Terrain. Considered, among other things, average daily temperatures, days with temperatures of zero or lower (five), days with temperatures 90 degrees or higher (seven), days with clear skies (59), days with partly cloudy skies (102), cloudy days (204), days with precipitation (152), average relative humidity (68 percent), annual rainfall (36 inches), and snowfall (45 inches).

Pittsburgh was 87th. Oakland San Francisco tied for first place. By J. Kenneth Evans number of quality stars awarded restaurants per 1,000 residents (34 stars for 65.2 stars per capita). The stars correspond to the quality rating of the restaurants.

So a city with a five-star restaurant and a two-star restaurant, would have seven quality stars. The category also included the per-capita number of golf courses (80.5), bowling lanes movie theaters (71), zoos (two one zoo, one aviary), pari-mutuel betting facilities (two), the seating capacity at professional sports games (2.47 'seats per capita), and also for NCAA Division I schools (0.358 game seats per capita at Pitt, Duquesne and Robert Morris), outdoor recreational assets (45), inland water area (28.1 square miles) and national forests, parks and wildlife refuges (two). Pittsburgh was 90th. Seattle placed first. Economics.

Included indexes for the costs of housing (97), food (107) and miscellaneous goods and services (107), household income taxes local tax bite (3.01 percent), income growth (44.83 percent) and job growth (a 0.89 percent decline). Also included were indexes for white-collar workers (105), blue-collar workers (95), cyclical threat of unemployment (moderate) and the goods produced in the area (steel iron, aluminum, rolling-mill machinery, coke, oil, foods, plate glass and chemicals). Pittsburgh ranked 185th. Midland, Texas, was first. Transportation.

Surveyed the average daily commuting time (50.4 minutes), public transportation (915 city buses, 92 street cars, two cable inclines and 3.8 seat miles per capita), freeway traffic (heavy), the number of interstate highways (two), air service (two airports, 19 airlines, 368 flights a day), Amtrak service (four trains a day). Pittsburgh was 76th. New York was first. Crime. Considered the rates for murder (4.5), rape (21.2), robbery (226.9), aggravated assault (142.2), burglary (900.4), larcenytheft (1,552.8) and auto theft (461.7).

Violent crimes were multiplied by 10 because, as co-author Richard Boyer said, people are more wary of violent crime than property crime. Pittsburgh placed 78th. Wheeling, W.Va., finished first.
