By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, May Ga c. I. O..
wage strike affecting approximately
1000 employees today halted opera
tions at the Federal Enameling &
Stamping Co.'S plant in nearby Nc
Kees Rocks.
The strike was called in defiance
of John A. Dutchman, organizer
for the Steel Workers Organizing
Committee, who declared the strike
violated a union contract and or
dered union members to continue
working.
The local union voted Saturday
to accept a wage increase averag-
ing 1872 per cent, but strike lead
ers later put forth demand for
a fiat 10 cents an hour increase,
declaring the original boost was in
adequate. The first increase, rang
ing from minimum of 7la to 231a
per cent, according to work classi-
fications, would have advanced
women's wages from 31ta cents an
hour to a minimum of 36 cents, and
men workers pay from So to As
cents an hour minimum.

The mild and pleasant June evenings bring with them an in- teresting summer constellation and star. The Gemini, Castor and
 Pollox, alone are left ofi our map out of the host of winter cofistella- tions which surround the group of Orion. Widespread Virgo now lies with It's eastern end across the meridian and stretches far to the westward until 1t touches the east ern boundary Of Leo the Lion. Tine brightest gem in Virgo is spica, 6 brilliant blue-white star lying just to the westward of the meridian at map-tlme. Virgo represents Ceres, the classical goddess of plenty, and Spica is an ear of grain which she holds out to the hungry world.Al- most overhead is c brilliant yellow ish-Whlte star: this is Arcturus ifl the constellation of Bootes. Coma Berenices lies to the west of Bootes;
 to tho eastward of Bootes lies Cor ona Borealis, and still further east Is Hercules. The circle of Corona stars is easily recognized md ali the stars lying between Corona and Vega in Lyra belong to the Hercules con- flguration. The brightest star in the latter group, Alpha Herculis or RaS Algethl, is only of the third magni' tude; 1t Is however, of tremendous absolute magnitude because It's diS- tance Is over four hundred -years from Us.

Romans as Mars, iB Ares, and Antares means the opponent or rival of Ares. According to the classical mythology 1t was Scorpio, the Scorpion, that frightened horses of the solar chariot when the sun god Apollo allowed his tilexperi- enced son Phaeton to drive the soar chariot on It's deadly round from the eastern to the western horizon. The uniucky driver was thrown from the chariot into the river Eridanus, which is represented in the heavens by c southern con. stellation which contains the first inagniture star Achernar, unfor- tunately not visible from our Ilorth- ern attitudes.

 Summer begins "officially", moro or less, when the sun reaches the summer Folstice, the point of the ecliptic circle which marks the far thest rortherly position which 1t can attain. This year the phen- omenon occurs ofi tho 2ist ct 2;34 D. f11., eastern standard time.

STATE

With throttle wide open and motors running smoothly, the best picture of the year roared into the Warner Bros. state theater this afternoon with exciting and drama- tic effect.
 The picture Is the new aviation epic. II Wanted Wings" starring Ray Midland, William Holden, Wayne Morris and Brian Donlevy, and featuring in its brilliant cast q sensational newcomer, Veronica Lake, and lovely Constance Moore.
 The new thriller was made with the complete cooperation of the Army Air Corps, with the result that the flying scenes are the most thrlli- ing depleted on the screen. There IS the sound ring of fact about T Wanted Wings" Even the fiction of dts story IS plausible.
 Midland, Holden and Morris are three young cadets who come to Randolph Field, ready to be put through the Army Air Corps paces preliminary to becoming flyers. Mil- land Is Q society boy Holden gar age mechanic from the corn belt Morris e football hero. The drama, the fun they have, the anxiety, the thrills, are all part of the story, as the Aim takes Us through the vari- ous sages of teir winning progress. Brian Donlevy plays the part of Q flying instructor who ei1- courages them when they falter during their rtaining period All turn in remarkably authentic per- formarices.
 Veronica Lake portrays the gold digging ruthless night club singer, who almost ruins the hard-built careers of Midland and Holden. Beautiful and unprincipled, the honey- haired charmer succeeds ih doing such q marvellous job of act- ing, one can't help admiring her.
 Of uniform excellence is the per- formance of beautiful Constance Moore who is seen as q girl photog- rapher for e national magazine.
 Among the highlights of the pie ture is simulated attack on blackedout Los Angeles, shown in Che picture and is one of the most gripping scenes ever shown on the screen. ,
 "T'he Great Mir. Nobody" a hilari-. ous comedy featuring Eddie Albert and Joan Leslie with Alan Hale and a host of other favorites. Is the sec ond big hit of the program.
