close ball games, To him, a
good game was one in which
the Yankees rolled over the

One year at contract time.
Rupert was discussing
terms with star pitcher
Waite Hoyt. When Hoyt
asked for a raise, Rupert
threw up his hands in hor-

Why should you get a
raise?" he demanded.
Because l had a great

retorted Hoyt. The best I
ever had. You know very we'll

1t calls for a disciplined mind

up buying what she likes.

Auto Workers
ApprOveNeW
Contract Goals

DETROIT, April 29 (AP) -
Representatives of more than a
million United Auto Workers
put their stamp of approval to-
day on a wide-range 1861 bar
gaining program that, among
other things, calls for shorter
work-week and an annual sal
ary instead of hourly wage.
The 5000 delegates to a spe-
cial convention. however, fol-
lowed the urging of UAW Pres
ident Walter P. Reuther in
taking a flexible approach to
new contract negotiatins that
open in two months with Gen
eral Motors, Ford and Chrysler.
With new car inventories
ranging above 100000 and
widespread unemployment in
the industry, bargainerS were
told merely to follow whatever
paths they could find at the
bargaining table that lead to
job security and more employ
ment.
Current three-year contracts
with the big three of the auto.
industry end on August 81. The
convention went on record
against a new contract covering
more than two years and said
lit would accept only a one-year
pact if current annual improve
ment factor and coSt-of living
wage escalators aren't con-
tinued.
The convention rejected a
concerted drive by some locals
to write into the bargaining
program a fixed demand for a
30-hour week with 40 hours
pay and retirement on full
pension at age go.
) Besides approving a campaign
/ for a shorter work week with
out any loss in pay and an
annual salary for production
workers, the UAW also set
these contract goals:
Increased and extended sup

fits, which are company-fi-
nanced and now give a laid-off

compensation to equal 65 per
cent Of his normal take-home
pay for up to 26 weeks.
Increased pensions and an
extension to their widows when
retired workers die ahead of
their wives. Also union voice

lion dollar pension funds.

Mr.. Reuther told the con-
vention the union is not look
ing for a fight, but will be
looking for justice" and in
tends to get a greater share
of what now goes into the
profits kitty of corporations.
However, he didn't once use
the term "profit-sharing," an
item that was No. l on the
JAWS bargaining agenda in
1858. but which it didn't get.
UAW Secretary Treasurer
Emil Macy told the conven-
ton the union had total re-
sources Of $54,273,247 and pre-
dicted that a strike fund of
$37,247,000 will have grown to
more than $40 million by the

two possible weather shifts,
both unpleasant.
BY the week end, the Weather
Bureau reported this morning
a mass of sub-zero Arctic all
above Canada may descend on
the Eastern United States-or,
rainy, messy weather now de-
veloping in Louisiana, Arkan-
sas, Mississippi and Alabama,
may push northward.
The forecaster said that If
the precipitation in the South
moves up rapidly enough, it
may become snow here. If the
disturbances northward prog
ress is leisurely, it will produce
rain here, he said.
Meanwhile, both forms of
precipitation could be Cancelled
If the polar air far to the north
moves south, the bureau said.
Last nights expected 10

The official low was % degrees

is to have his person sacred
