Resolution of the eligibility issue would remove a potentially significant stumbling block in the unionizing process. The HUCTW, which is seeking a quick election this spring, has accused the University of using the eligibility issue to stall for time, a charge University officials have denied...
...overnight runs provides some privacy and chance of rest, though at a price. For a passenger traveling round trip between Chicago and San Francisco, a deluxe bedroom quintuples the fare, to $1,050. The compartment does have a toilet and shower; actually, the toilet is in the shower stall, but on a two-day trip, it still seems a glorious luxury, those 30-second dousings of 100 degrees F water.

Last week the Palestine Liberation Organization foolishly played into Shamir's stonewalling strategy by hijacking a bus carrying civilians in Israel. The terrorist incident, which left three Israelis and all three guerrillas dead, bolstered Shamir's position that Israel should not enter into negotiations...
