- <p> DIED. DANIEL FLOOD, 90; Congressman; in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
- Known as "Dapper Dan" for his waxed mustache and sporty capes,
- the Democrat was a powerful gatekeeper to federal loans and
- aid money as chairman of a key House Appropriations subcommittee.
- His 32-year career came to an ignominious halt in 1980 after
- prosecutors accused him of taking bribes. He resigned and spent
- the last 14 years of his life in virtual seclusion.
