Unknown pesticide contaminates water PITTSBURGH (AP) Thousands of Pittsburgh area residents did without or stood in line for drinking water yester day, as health and utility officials searched for the source of pesticide contamination. "It's bad enough that you have to stand in line for gasoline, but now we have to stand in line for water," said Paul Kihren as he waited by a tank truck in his neighborhood. "This is ridiculous." Residents of the Beechview, Banksville and Greentree areas became aware of tainted tap water Sunday and swamped the Allegheny County Health Department and the Western Penn- sylvania Water Co. with hundreds of telephone calls. Since then the water company, hit Monday by an employee strike, has been flushing lines and tasting water in an effort to pinpoint the cause of the pollutant. Tank trucks with fresh water are also available in the affected areas on a 24-hour basis. "We're working as diligently as we can, hopefully by our flushing efforts,.we'll get this cleared up as soon as possible," Bob Ross, a water company spokesman, said yesterday. The Pittsburgh Poison Center reported more than 100 calls REMINDER ::>;:~ Peanut butter cut from dorm dinner By IRIS NAAR Daily Collegian Staff Writer Residence hall students who enjoy the end of November.

"Most of our calls are informational and some people said they had ingested the water and were sick," said center spokeswoman Bonnie Dean. "We did get two reports of people with symptoms other than gastrointestinal muscle rigidity, stiff neck and chest pains." The Allegheny County Health Department estimated 20,000 L persons were unable to use their tap water and at least 20 I peri sons have reported illnesses believed to be related to the water. "Our staff is in the field taking samples of tap water for • laboratory analysis," said Health • Department spokesman Guillermo Cole. "We're also going to all the schools, restaurants and stores in an effort to find out how the water . •.) supply was contaminated." Two Pittsburgh schools canceled classes on Monday and yesterday because of the water problem. Ross said the utility is unsure of how many residents are af fected. And he said the water company is uncertain of the ex act type of pollutant or where it entered the system.
