1New0ffer in New York
Granting ITU Control
OF .'Varitype' Studied
Rx the A,seeietsd Press

NEW YORK, July 3l.-New pro.
posals for settlement OF the pro-
longed contract dispute between
New York City newspapers and theil
printers were up for review today
by union executives.
The proposed contract was Offered
to the printers last night by the
Publishers Association of New York
City, representing II major dailies.
The terms, which would give
printers a SO weekly pay raise, were
drawn up in a twe-week renewal OF
negotiations between the association
and the AFL International Typo
graphical Union.
William Mapel, vice chairman OF
the association, said the proposed
contract now must be approved by
the unions Executive Council IN
Indianapolis and by members OF
the ITU Local 6 here.
THE proposals" he said, "to the
best of our knowledge, resolve all
differences held out by the union as
violating the unions laws or poll
cies."
Would Control Substitutes.
The contract would give the union
control over substitute processes
of printing. Lack of such a provi-
sion was cited by the ITU as its
main reason for rejecting tenta-
tive agreement reached last April.
Many New York newspapers-in
preparation for a possible strike
have installed "varitype" equipment,
which can be used through photo
engraving in a substitute printing
method.
The contract proposals, Mr.. Mapel

said, provide that mo substitute
operation for the production OF
matter printed in the newspapers
shall be performed outside the jur-
isdiction of this union"
The terms also include a prior
ity" hiring clause.
Mr.. Mapel said the proposals were
turned over last night to Woodruff
Randolph, international ITU presi-
dent, and Elmer Brown, second vice
president, who have been taking
part in the negotiations.
Mr.. Randolph said he and Mr.
Brown planned to leave immediate
ly for Indianapolis to present the
proposals to the five-man Execu-
tive Council.
Previous Proposal Turned Down.

reached here last spring between
the publishers and the local union,

 This is incontrovertibIe evid- . ence of the huge public demand and need for the complete trans portatiOn service which Railroad

 If, as claimed, the handling of small package traffic by express is uneconOmical to the railroads.

Old 0aken Bucket
By the Associated Press

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Nov. 20.-Pur-
due rose to its early season power
today and smashed through Indiana
for a 39-to-0 victory to bring the
Old Oaken Bucket back to Lafayette.
1t was a great climax for Purdue,
the third victory of q season which
opened with a thrilling one-point
loss to Notre Dame.
For Coach Stu Holcomb 1t was
sweet victory. too, because it is
the first time in fve years that the
Old Oaken Bucket has come to
Lafayette.
Against their traditional state
rival the Boilermakers started strong
with two quick touchdowns and
never let up.
Indiana fought back hard, but
the Hoosier line couldn't open the
holes for the runners and the passes
just wouldn't find their way home.
Hard-charging Halfback Harry
Szulborski paced Purdue's slashing
ground game as he bucked over for
the first Boilermaker score after
3h minutes of play and then raced
80 yards just one minute later for
the second 6-pointer.
Quarterback Bob Demoss account
ed for two other Boilermaker touch
downs, and Norb Adams and Re-
serve Fullback Jack Milito banged
over for the others. AS a gesture
to retiring Capt. Phil O'Reilly. the
last extra point was added on a
plunge. O'Reilly, normally tackle,
plunged for it.
The Boilermakers collected 20
first downs while Indiana strained
to get four. Purdue backs picked up
454 yards with their rushing game
but the Hoosiers could buck for
only At.
Szulborski was responsible for 149
of Purdue's total yardage, carrying
the ball "a times.
A record crowd of 47,161 saw the
worst beating a team has taken in
the series since 1902, when Indiana
lost by the same score as today'S.
