Lyman Co officials told a June 4 1981 hearing that only about one fourth of 25000 pounds of Tris treated sleepwear were cut into industrial rags while the rest were sold to consumers through the Chicopee mass outlet.

Donovan faces ethics probe over Schiavone ties and cash gift
Labor Department sources say Donovan plans to speak after gaining Reagan's confidence amid an Ethics in Government Act inquiry. The probe centers on his 1960s 70s role at Schiavone Construction and a 1977 luncheon in Long Island City where envelopes of cash were alleged to have passed to the Local 29 president. The special prosecutor found no prosecutable facts against Donovan but noted possible no show employees and potential perjury unrelated to the act, sending that aspect to the Justice Department.
