DO YOU COME MERE OFTEN ? te-Z O 1»78 United F—hire Syndicate. »nc lUHAT'S YOUR SIGN BABE? YOU A LEO ? /0-S8 Corrections, amplifications An analysis of the issues in dispute between the University and the Graduate Teaching Fellows Federation in Tuesday s Emerald contained two errors. The University's original sal ary proposal called for two re troactive pay increases plus a 5 percent hike scheduled for Dec. 1,1978. Later the Univer sity altered its offer, proposing the two retroactive raises in addition to the choice between a 5 percent increase beginning Sept. 15 and a 6 percent hike starting Dec. 1. Also, a sentence referring to union arguments on salaries should have read, “Inflation, the union argues, has eroded GTF salaries so that a pay hike today of 45 percent still would leave GTFs with lower real wages than they received in 1969..." Also, due to a typographical error, a reference to the aver age Chicago garbageman’s pay in a Tuesday Letter to the Editor was incorrect. The figure should have read $18,000.
