90.
The prize was originally TO
be awarded to the person
whose guess was closest to
the time when the tempera-
ture would indicate 95 degree

yer reached, SO on Septem-
ber 20th., the contest chang
ed to the closest guess to 80
degrees f.
Ruth's winning guess was
ASS Eastern Standard Time,

Because she has had a saw

the failure of the summer
temperature to reach 95 de-

like an anti climax. In plan
ming for next year, we will
start in March and set t h e
contest temperature at so de-
grees SO that the winner will
not have to wait all summer
long. We would like to thank
all those who entered and to
those who did not win," bey-

TV Repair Firm
Sues to Retain
'Enqineer' Name

A local radio and television
repair concern yesterd ay
brought suit asking U. S. Dis
trict Court to declare it has
the right to keep the word
engineers" as a part Of its
corporate name.
The concern, TV Engineers,
Inc, 100 block of Columbia
road NV, also asks the court
to enjoin District authorities
from taking proposed action
to prosecute the concern if it
does not drop the word "engi-
neers" from its title.
The suit says the concern
has never set itself up as engi-
neers but says it has spent
large sums of money in adver-
Using under its name. 1t con-
tends that the corporation
counsel last year ruled that a
firm or corporation may use
the word engineer" in its name
without violating the Profess
sional Engineers Registration
Act, which requires professional
engineers to register.
Filed by attorney Hyman
Nussbaum, the suit names as
defendants Alfred Goldstein,
District superintendent of cor
porations; Corporation Counsel
Chester H. Gray and the three
District Commissioners.
A similar suit, which had
been filed against the Board
of Registration Of Professional
Engineers recently was dismis-
sed in District Court and is
being appealed, attorney Nuss-
baum said.

Senator Dodd. Democrat Of

fabric Of American life. the
American national exhibition

David j. Mcdonald. presi-
dent Of the United Steelwork-
ers Union. has dispelled the
threat Of a breakdown in con-
tract negotiations today by
dropping his insistance on a
new bargaining setup.

formal demanded by steel man.
agement.
Mr.. Mcdonald had proposed
that the IL leading steel COM
panies bargain individually with
union representatives, But the
companies refused, apparently
in fear Of divide and conquer
tactics by the union. They In
sisted on continuing negoti-
atoms between four-man teams
on each side speaking for the
bulk Of the industry.
Meet In New York Today
On q quick trip here yester-
day, Mr.. Mcdonald acceded. He
said he and three aides will
meet the companies four-man
team at the Hotel Roosevelt in
New York this afternoon to
continue negotiations.
Mr.. Mcdonald reported
nothing at all new" in the
negotiations that began early
in May. Unless the companies
and the union agree on a new
contract by June 80. a July
strike is likely,
Most of the 81 Democratic
Senators who dined at the
Capitol last night with Mr..
Mcdonald came away feeling
Ipessimistic about prospects for
avoiding a steel strike.
They reported Mr.. Mcdonald
also appeared to doubt that
there will be a contract settle
|ment without a walkout-al-
though he did not paint a
completely hopeless picture.
Mr.. Mcdonald contended the
companies could afford to raise
wages by 40 cents an hour
without raising prices. and still
make record profits. He did not
specify how much of an in
crease the union will fight for,
but indicated the demands are
far short Of 40 cents.
Offer Faces Rejection
Despite his evident willing
ness to compromise. Mr.. Nc
Donald told the Senators fatty
that the union must refuse the
companies latest offer. This
involves a series Of changes in
working rules and fringe bene-
fits. in arrangements favor.
In return, Mr.. Mcdonald said.
the companies have indicated
they would be willing to raise
wages by about 6 cents an
hour.
Some Senators advised him
to make specific proposals be-
fore striking. to give the pub
lie a chance TO Judge the fair
ness Of the unions position.
They warned him that the
companies are making head
way with their public argu-
ments that wage increases
would be infiationary.
At least one Senator who at
tended remained optimistic
about chances for avoiding a
strike. The Senator said, There
is enough wisdom. enough
leadership and enough patriot
ism on both sides for them to
get together"
