If tomorrow is a clear day, Charles
Fries will climb to the top Of the statue
of the Goddess of Freedom on the dome
of the Capitol, 287 feet above the
ground, to replace the platinum light
ming tips that have been damaged by
storms in recent years.
Every four years when the dome is
being repainted. an examination is
made of the points on the statue. The
inspection this year showed several of
them in need of repair as the result
of intercepting bolts of lightning. The
points, which are approximately three
inches long, have been taken down and
are being reconditioned today.
