PHONE STRIKE WIDESPREAD VIOLENCE AND PICKETING RISE
Scattered violence and vandalism marked a telephone strike day. About twenty pickets were arrested in Fort Lauderdale for blocking entrances to company facilities. In Miami area vandals burned 250 cable pairs, while a brick damaged a San Francisco window and flares were set outside a Hollywood office. Pacific Northwest Bell filed unfair labor practices charges over illegal picketing and blocked entrances, though no injunction was sought. A union spokesman blamed first day enthusiasm and said leaders told pickets to cool it.
