Vermont Supreme Court rules for unemployed aircraft mechanic
The Vermont Supreme Court ruled the Employment Security Department erred in denying unemployment benefits to Ronald Surowick, who quit the Burlington Flight School in 1974 after heat was shut off in a hangar. The justices said work in a cold hangar in February was unsafe and the lower pay offered elsewhere did not justify denial of benefits. The term opened with other actions upholding judicial immunity, PSB contract powers, and utility rights-of-way protections.

Derailment hearing urged in propane explosion case
Montpelier UPI State Transportation Secretary Arthur Ristau asked the Federal Railroad Administration to hold a hearing into the November 9 derailment of 19 freight cars that caused three propane tankers to explode. If FRA declines, Vermont may launch its own probe. B and M Rail attributed the crash to a faulty rear wheel on the lead box car after an internal inquiry. B and M President Alan Dustin rejected claims the tracks and roadbed were inadequately repaired. Ristau has not seen any federal investigation plans and would seek state authority for a state hearing if needed.
