Guild employes went on strike at 8 :30 p. Thursday, In a tract negotiating stalemate over sick leave policy. Members of other unions declined to cross a picket line Of the ANO. Advertising and other office ployes of the company, the Peoria Journal Star, went to their jobs today without incident.

About 2.QO0 copies of the morning edition were printed Thursday night, but the press run was cut after truck drivers refused to die the edition. Wages and contract provisions other than sick leave terms had been agreed upon when the guild called the walkout. In this morning's uncirculated edition, the newspaper said: "The company believes the guild is unjustified In striking over this issue. It is our hone that dissenting workers will reeogntte the fairness of the sick pay policy before too much suffering results from this work stoppage." In issuing the strike notice, Frank Barry, a reporter and president of ANO Local 86, said in A statement: action was taken with great reluctance, but the membership felt it had no other choice. After 64 fruitless meetings, we had no other course.

As valiantly as we tried, it was impossible to resolve our sick- leave issue with a management which we feel is highly' arbitrary." Guild spokesmen said the com pany made certain verbal agreements on sick pay policies but would not sign a contract containing them. They said nonunion ployes get up to 26 weeks sick pay in any one year beginning with the first day of illness, but that members of unions get up to 26 weeks sick pay beginning on the eighth day. The guild said its verbal agreement with company negotiators contained agreement that such benefits would begin on the first day of illness, but that the company said it meant the eighth day In this morning's uncirculated front page story, the Journal Star said there had been no verbal agreement and that the newspaper explained as early as last July a sick pay policy which had been in force eight years. In what was to be the Peoria local's first contract with the Journal Star, guild and management representatives had agreed on a $110 top minimum ofrexperieeed employes in the union's jurlsdic Uon. Other provisions Included a $3 weekly raise for those making more than $110, a modified guild shop and severance pay stipulations.

WORLD'S BIGGEST AUTO SHOW ON IN CHICAGO By DAVID J.

Flint, according to State's Atty. Carl Glasgow, claimed the shooting was accidental. He said he shot only to "scare her" because she to talk to him. Authority told this story: Flint, an employe of a Decatur plant, and Eltrieda, eloped last spring and kept their marriage secret for three days.

Then her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lester Stensel, learned about it, and insisted the marriage be annulled. Elfrieda was 17 at the time. The annullment went through and Elfrieda was taken to Europe by her parents and then enrolled in a New York school.

She returned home for the Christmas holidays and didn't see Flint. Thursday Elfrieda and a friend left Farmer City to visit an old school friend at the home of Jess Hammer in nearby Piatt County. Flint learned of the drive and followed. When the girls stopped' their auto, Flint shouted that he wanted to talk to Eltrieda. She replied that she had nothing to say.

Flint got a .22 rifle from his car and fired. The bullet struck Elfrieda. Flint picked up his former bride, carried her into the Hammer home and went to the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Keith Flint, Farmer City.

The decision was hailed here today by the law firm which represented the institute in a government law suit as "a victory for the mind of man." The government's suit was directed against Indiana University's Institute for Sex Research, Inc, The institute was founded by the late Or. Alfred C. Kinsey. The new standard held tbat the material is not legally obscene because it is unlikely to arouse the "prurient interest" of those who will see it.

The official position previously had been that a thing Is obscene in itself, no matter who is going to see or read It. The material involved had been seized by the Customs Bureau over the last seven years on Its way to the institute. A government suit to have the material destroyed was rejected here last Nov. 1 by Federal Dist. Judge Edmund -L.

He ruled that an object is not legally obscene if the person importing it has a genuine scientific purpose. The imports in the Kinsey case include photographs, Chinese paintings, statuettes, books and what were identified as "Lavotory wall inscriptions." The government's decision to accept and apply generally the new obscenity standard does not bind the post office. However, it may Influence the attitude of postal of ficials in deciding whether matter is "obscene" and therefore non-mailable. 1 The Treasury Department tniick- ly followed up the decision with office jockeying for positions on the Jefferson county primary Olney RobberyjS" 1101 got biB8er this Mrs. Ogle Ellis, wife of a Mt pital.

Riot police stood by as demonstrators gathered outside the Teatro dell' Opera after the management called off the rest of the performance. Miss Callas avoided the crowd by escaping through an underground passage to her hotel nearby. The singer sat wearily in her hotel apartment later and sobbed that she had been ill for days and could not possibly have completed the opera. She said she hoped to make it up to the public by singing "Norma" Saturday night, when Thursday night's tickets will be honored. New Singer Hired But in Naples another soprano, Anita Cerquetti, said the Rome management had wired her a request to fill the role Saturday.

Miss Cerquetti said she accepted. Miss Callas has left a lengthy international trail of name-calling contract disputes and last-minute cancellations of performances since she soared to the musical top alter World War I. Critics have noted in recent months that her highest tones have sounded increasingly shrill and frayed, and her cancellations for vocal "indisposition" have become more frequent. Locks Seljf in Boom At the end of Thursday night's first act, the soprano locked herself In her dressing room and refused to come out. When the intermission dragged on inexplicably for an hour, the audience became restless.

Finally the management announced through a loud-speaker that "due to unforeseen causes, the show will not continue." The audience booed lustily. Two thirds of the crowd of 3,000 filed out and went home; the rest gathered at the exits, jeering, stamping their feet and waiting for Miss Callas to come out. Inside, for two hours, the soprano lay crying in her dressing room. Finally she was helped to her hotel and the crowd dispersed.
