Hoffa said negotiators made "quite a bit of progress" Thursday during the talks. Hoffa said the tie-up has created "knotty" problems for union and management nego tiators. But he said quite a few solutions had been reached and negotiators hoped to reach final agreement by the week end. ' The negotiators, who held their first session here Wednesday night were gener ally optimistic but offered no details to newsmen.

Hoffa suggested holding meetings here after an at tempt to reach agreement failed two weeks ago in San Diego. The union is demanding so called "parity" treatment of all locals in the 11 states.

From left: Miss Arizona, Miss Utah, Miss Nevada, Miss Oregon, Miss Washington, Miss California, Miss Hawaii, Miss Alaska. Miss America Contestants Find Talking Difficult Atlantic City, N.J. -r(DPD-It seems to be easier to talk to Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev at a Moscow cock tail party than to ask a Miss America Pageant contestant what she had for lunch. The 52 girls entered in the 31st running of the beauty classic are so shut off from the rest of the world during their six days in Atlantic City that their own fathers have to make special appointments just to say "hello." Whispered Information Miss Indiana's father could not even tell her that her slip showed during a pageant re hearsal. He had to whisper the critical information to her official chaperone, who then told her to make the necessary adjustments. Even their mothers, who in many cases come along as chaperones, are not allowed to be with the girls most of the time. Their full-time bodyguards, censors, advisers and rooters are Atlantic City housewives, hand-picked for the job. Most of them have been shepherd ing Miss America contestants through their paces for years, and know all the angles, the main one being to keep re porters and photographers away from their charges when ever possible. Hostess Turns Censor . Whenever the girls are in terviewed or converse with anyone outside the pageant corporation, their hostesses must stand by and 'listen to every word.
