"I've been in the business for 23 years, and smoking has become less and less of a priority for customers. People are accepting this as a way of going out now." As for the idea that smoking bans hurt business, Alder said, "I'd say the opposite is true.

Rather than upset the 90 percent of people who don't like smoke, I'd rather dissatisfy the 2 or 3 who do." Alder noted that he used to manage the Home Plate Club at PNC Park, where no smoking is allowed. "We had people with season tickets who paid a lot of money. When they wanted to light up a cigar after a meal, we just invited them to step outside. It was never much of a Post-Gazette Staff Writer Business did not suffer at Gullifty's Restaurant after the eatery banned smoking in its dining room 2 12 years ago, according to its manager. "Most of the response was very positive," said Genie Rogers, who has worked at the Squirrel Hill establishment for 15 years.

"We used to have smoking on the lower balcony and the smoke would drift, even with ceiling fans for ventilation. There was no way around it, and people would complain." The waitstaff including those who smoke liked the ban because it evened out the section assignments, she said. "A lot of times no one wanted to sit in smoking so the staff there wasn't very busy. Most of my employees are college students who need the tips. They like it that there are no 'bad' sections now.

Everyone has a level playing field." Rogers' experience could prove instructive for other proprietors, some of whom have expressed fears that a mitted a request asking to resign as pastor of Holy Angels parish. Bishop Wuerl has accepted his request" Lengwin said it was diocesan practice not to make a public statement about the reasons any priest might decide to retire early. "It is always the right of parishioners to hear first from the pastor who has guided them about an impending retirement But because of the questions that have teea raised by so many people, we thought it was necessary to explain that he requested retire-' ment from Bishop Wuerl and it' was granted," Lengwin said. Crowley, who will turn 74 next month, was ordained in 1954 and has served Holy' Angels parish in Hays for 34' years. His six Sunday Masses are often standing-room-only.

In 2000, Crowley praised by local officials after a devastating flood struck Hays. He turned the church into a headquarters for relief work, and gave help and encourage-, ment to residents whether: they were parishioners or not: He is much better known for. giving away money than for asking for it "His selfless giving set an example for all of us city, Councilman Bob O'Connor, wrote of Crowley in a letter to the editor.

Alluding to the bishop, he said, "The stationmaster gave me a yellow flag and I said, 'Fine, I'm ready' He read his statement but did not celebrate the 10:30 a.m. Mass. He later said private goodbyes to members of the congregation as they were leaving the service and urged one man not to petition the bishop.

Some parishioners are still convinced he was made to leave against his will. "His whole life was devoted to his parish and its people. He was forced out but is too much of a class act to say so," said parishioner Fred Piel of West Mifflin. Crowley has not reached the mandatory retirement age of 75, but priests in this diocese can retire as young as 70 for health reasons. The parishioners who contacted the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said Crowley had health problems but that they did not believe he was too ill to continue, and they were certain he would have given them more than one week's notice if he had planned to retire.

The Rev. Ronald Lengwin, spokesman for the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, said last week that Crowley "has sub win; and several nieces and nephews. Friends will be received at the F.

The Allegheny County Health Department is considering such a ban, already in force in Boston, New York City and seven other states. Dr. Bruce Dixon, director of the department, told the county Health Board last week that he would begin working with attorneys to draft a restaurant smoking ban. It appears the key to such a ban would be to change state law, which now prohibits local governments from banning smoking in restaurants outright. The Pennsylvania Restaurant Association and the tobacco lobby have both successfully fought previous attempts to ban smoking in restaurants and bars altogether.

Pennsylvania's Clean Indoor Air Act, passed in 1988, requires restaurants with 75 or more seats to provide a nonsmoking section. Restaurants with fewer seats either must provide a nonsmoking section or post signs saying there is no such section. English.

j. to keep a tougher ordinance that predated the state law. In the city, restaurants with 50 or more table seats must have a no-smoking section. But the ordinance only applies when food sales equal 80 percent of the total revenue. The Star of India, a small, one-room restaurant in Oakland, banned smoking in 1998 and never looked back, said manager Navin Kohli.

"Indian food does not go well with smoking," Kohli said. "A lot of customers would complain if somebody lit a cigarette. We'd ask them to put it out and they were always understanding. "We want to have a healthy atmosphere," he continued. "If somebody feels they need to smoke, we offer them tea masala (a hot and spicy blend).

"There's no scientific evidence, but it seems to relieve their desire to smoke." One of the newest entries to the no-smoking list is Rotelli Pizza Pasta Perfect in Pine, featuring Italian food. robberies "He punched the woman repeatedly in the face and ripped out the Ehone," Kraus said, then he fled the ouse with $9 and the phone.
