Seven other employees were hired and fired by the same procedure last Friday. Todays group consisted of Michael Vitale, steward; Adolf Manka, Julius Panilaitis, James Peters, Adelino Dos Refs, Henry Morin and Peter Grizkausckas.
 Union officials have asked for a conference with plant superintend- ent John Hoben for Wednesday af- ternoon in accordance with stand ard grievance procedures relative to Che present measure being taken by the concern.
 Procedure used relating to the hiring and firing of these men con- 6ists of signing them in at the em- ployment office giving them time cards and badges. driving them to the tube mill and then discharging them again.
 Meanwhile, Robert Walkinshaw, International representative of the CIO Scovill Brass Workers union today stated that it was the union which first made representations to the company that all the 66 men in Volved be rehired subject to media ton relative to disciplinary action.
 MT. Walkinshaw said that the first approached Alan c. CurtiSS of the Scovill company with the suggestion that in view of the critical man. power situation these people be re- tained, as directed by the War La bor Board, and grievances be medi- ated later. This the company re- fused to do, the union representa- tive stated, and at second meeting MT. CurtisS is said to have offered the agreement whereby certain em- ployes among this group would be retained and thoea the company q 44ect b disciplinary ac- ] i,4n h4-1 be hroa This the union Im& t dc stating that it felt Hss yrerF et lon was alto- l-re 3-I Se84fe
 { A special meeting of the Greater Waterbury Industrial Union will be held tonight at State Headquarters, 95 North Main street, at which time joint action on the Scovill issue by the eight CIO locals will be con- Sidered.
 John J. Driscoll, executive secre- tary Of the CIO has stated that the union has begun to draw up griev- ances for each man involved and the cases will ultimately go to ar bitration.
 The company contends that 1t has specifically adhered to the WLB di- rective that it rehire the men and was within it's right in firing those they wish under the clause con- tained in the directive whereby the company could resort to it's own disciplinary action.
 The issue today seemed boiled down to a stand on the unions part that the disciplinary action is too severe particularly "in view of the critical manpower situation here" while the company apparently contends that it las the full right to discharge these men. particularly R certain seven, said by spokeS- man for the company. to "nave been ringleaders in the original strike" Until the union agrees to permit the firing of these seven 1t is said the management will ad- here to it's present policy.
 It has been reported that more extended action than disciplinary measures other than discharge might be adopted by the manage ment, but no clarihcation of this re-

 The issue first arose last May when 66 workers walked out of the plant in protest to certain griev- ances and wee refused reemploy ment by management. The case passed through state mediationS sources, the governor, regional WLBS and finally the NLRB.

LADY BIRD BEETLE.
(Rodolid cdrdinuleS.)

Rodolia, a native of Australia, is
a beetle of great value to mankind.
In all the South American countries,
and also in the United States, where
she has been called into service, the
activities of her offspring have been
highly successful. They destroy the
egg masses and young of the cot
tony-cushion scale insect, dreaded
enemy of citrus fruit trees.
Lady-bird beetles have always been
allies of ours. During the Middle
Ages, these insects were dedicated to
the Virgin, hence were the Beetles
of Our Lady"
During times when their presence
is urgent, these beetles travel by
plane. The mother lays her eggs
close to those of her victim. Lady
bird larvae are amazingly energetic.
cleaned up in short order. Then the
hungry army marches in quick haste
over the tree. The larvae are
brightly colored with red splashes on
a yellow ground color The slender
body tapers to a sharp point. the
abdomen is studded with spiny,
wartlike growths.
Several skins are discarded before
it is time to transform into an adult.
The larva hangs himself up by the
tip of his tail, sheds the last skin,
which hangs over his body like .
shawl, and later emerges with wings.
In warm climates the life cycle
is continuous; in colder ones, the
adults hibernate under stones, leaves
and bark. Sometimes. they gather
in great masses. Scientists have
sought them in certain places. col
lected them in boxes and shipped
them to where their services were
greatly desired. In no case is there
"a record that the young army did
not wipe out the enemy.

BAYOU is a Louisiana French
word which evolved from the In

widespread mispronunciations: Cd

and % "BY-oh," as heard in the
South and Southwest. Correctly

rhymes with GOO, woo," thus
BY-oo.

The common mispronunciation
"ree-KOOP-er-ate.' is Influenced
apparently by false association with
the unrelated word recoup. Be sure
to rhyme the -cu- of the recuperate
