Mr. Stevens was raised in Walpole, N.H. He attended St. Paul's School in Concord, N.H., and the Museum School of Fine Arts in Boston. He graduated from Tufts University after serving in the Army during the Korean War.

His love of art and writing led him to publishing, where he became executive publisher of the upstart Boston magazine. In the mid-1960s, he returned to New Hampshire, eventually becoming managing editor of Yankee Magzine, which he described in a story published in the Globe on Oct. 10, 1976, as a magazine "for all who are New Englanders, for those who formerly were, for those who wish they were and for those who are tired of the big and the glorious and long for the simple way of life." At Yankee, he wrote fiction and nonfiction, illustrated stories (including his own), drew cartoons, served as art director, and edited the magazine. His work appeared under several pen names, including Stephen Austin, August St. Evens, and Eno Nash.

Richard Harwood, 75; was Washington Post ombudsman WASHINGTON POST WASHINGTON Richard Harwood, 75, a retired reporter, editor, and ombudsman at the Washington Post who played an important role in the development of the newspaper for more than 30 years, died of cancer March 19 at his home in Bethesda, Md. Mr. Harwood established his journalistic reputation on the Louisville Times, which sent him to Washington in 1962 as a correspondent for the Times and its sister paper, the Courier-Journal. Mr.

Harwood joined The Post in 1966 as a reporter on the national staff. Two years later, he was named the paper's national editor, and spent the rest of his career as one of the Post's top editors, and as the paper's internal critic, or ombudsman. In his memoir "A Good Life," Ben Bradlee, the editor who hired Mr. Harwood, gave this assessment of 1 his abilities as a reporter: "primitive in his search for the truth, impossible to deceive, and without peer in his ability to write a declarative sentence." Mr. Harwood brought to his work a highly developed skepticism.

Martorano agreed to a plea bargain that will have him serve a reduced jail sentence and testify against James "Whitey" Bulger and Bulger's Winter Hill cohorts. The guilty plea comes a week after state prosecutors in Tulsa, and Miami filed murder charges against Bulger, Stephen Flemmi, and Martorano in the 1981 slaying of businessman Roger Wheeler and the 1982 slaying of Callahan, a mob-connected financier. Bulger and Flemmi could face a death sentence in both states while Martorano, who provided evidence against them, will serve years in prison under the plea agreement. Both Wheeler and Callahan had ties to World Jai Alai, a Miami-based gaming company where Bulger's and Flemmi's gang allegedly had a money-skimming operation.

Wheeler, the multimillionaire chairman of Telex Corp. and owner of World Jai Alai, was shot between the eyes at point-blank range in the parking lot of Tulsa's Southern Hills Country Club on May 27, 1981. Martorano, who is now a government witness, has admitted being the shooter and has told authorities that Bulger and Flemmi ordered the murder, sources close to the case have said. Martorano also admitted to killing Callahan in August 1982 at Bulger's and Flemmi's behest to cover up the Wheeler murder. Callahan's body was found in the trunk of his car at Miami International Airport.

reporters and editors tend to filter events and news judgments through the prisms of their own experience, and he pushed himself and his colleagues to step outside their own assumptions and prejudices. As ombudsman the first such appointment on a major American newspaper Mr. Harwood proved to be unsparing in his criticizm of The Post. In an internal memo in June 1970, he wrote: "Our standards are objective and whimsical. They reflect our tastes, values, prejudices, opinions and conveniences.

We are a 'white' newspaper in a Southern or crypto-Southern area of circulation. There are millions of Poles and Italians and Chicanos and farmers and coal miners out there but very few in our newsroom." On Jan. 1, 1989, he wrote that Post stories are too long, that the daily word count in the newspaper "often equals or exceeds that of the New Testament." He called The Post "one of the most long-winded and loosely edited journals in the western world, and it is getting worse." Eatery sues Big Dig firm over closing ASSOCIATED PRESS The owner of the Barking Crab restaurant has sued a Big Dig construction firm, claiming the company should pay for a sewage leak blamed on the famous waterfront eatery. The lawsuit claims that Modern Continental Construction was responsible for a sewage leak that closed the restaurant for three weeks last summer. The closing cost the restaurant $650,000 in lost business, according to owner Doug Lemle.

He also said that replacing the restaurant's sewage system cost him $500,000. The lawsuit, filed last week in Suffolk County Superior Court, alleges the construction firm broke the restaurant's sewer line five years ago while working on nearby Moakley Bridge. The subsequent sewage leak was caused by the damage done by the construction company, Lemle claimed. Lemle said he was seeking more than $1 million in damages. A spokeswoman for Modern Continental Construction said the company had not yet been served with notice of the suit.

The state highway department, which is responsible for the bridge where work was being done near the restaurant, is named as a codefendant in the lawsuit. A spokesman for the department said they had not yet been served notice of the suit. Phillipston wants a ZIP PHILLIPSTON Some folks in this 215-year-old town in Worcester County figure it's time they got their own ZIP code. Residents, who several years ago persuaded the US Postal Service to allow them to use a Phillipston address, are scheduled to vote at the May town meeting to petition the postmaster general to remove the community from the Athol ZIP code. "People are just fed up," said Nancy MacEwen, a retired postal carrier who has been trying to get the town a new ZIP code for several years.

"We are a growing community. We're pushing 2,000 people." She said the town once had its own post office, but it was closed in 1954. Since then, mail has been delivered to residents through the Athol Post Office, except for three streets that for a while were served through the post office in Templeton. Robert Groff, a spokesman for the US Postal Service, said it is unlikely the request would be granted because there are not enough mailing addresses in town to warrant the change. Town administrator Thomas Goodwin said selectmen looked into the possibility several years ago, but nothing ever came of their letters to the Postal Service and federal legislators.

ASSOCIATED PRESS Trash company fined $112,000 The city of Boston has fined a Norwell trash company $112,000 for illegally dropping off and picking up debris-filled dumpsters yesterday morning. Trucks from Waste Solutions were caught picking up four illegally placed dumpsters on Avenue de Lafayette. A city code enforcement officer stopped the drivers, asked them for identification and ordered them to wait for the police. Officials said three of the trucks fled the scene; the officer blocked in the fourth truck, which the city impounded. Macomber Construction, the contracting compay that employed Waste Solutions, was fined $1,000 for failing to properly dispose of its debris.

An investigation is pending..
