...until I couldn't sleep any more. May I say this, I'm not a fan. I don't care to watch your show ... It sounds pretty, pretty rotten. I didn't enjoy your show. Jack. And I don't enjoy it too much, except I can't-I can't stay away from it." Paar: "Do you enjoy it tonight?" Rooney: "Not necessarily." Paar: "Would you care to leave...

They feel that management is trying to do too much in one contract, that it should settle the wage question now, leave the local work rules until later. Labor Secretary James P.
