will hang separately The direction sign stands a lonely vigil con¬ veying the teacher ' s message. There is only one way. Settle. Tom Peyton braces against the cold, determined to withstand whatever might come, even a court order. Noble Baker makes a last ditch plea with school board member Irving Shubert. His plea tell on deal ears. Lake Central ' s striking teachers re¬ turned to work on Tuesday, January 24, following a cold, wet three day strike. Toes froze, ears tingled, and eyes smarted from the wind, but the spirits of the Lake Central ' s picketing teachers never dampened. The decision was made after a 5 a.m. ratification of a contract that included a no reprisal clause, salary increases, extra duty pay, and increased elementary preparation time. One important issue which was unilaterally turned down by the school board was binding arbi¬ tration; advisory arbitration was sub¬ mitted instead. After an early morning ratification, many teachers returned to their anxious students dressed in their striking garb. They had anticipated the outcome of the vote to be different as it had been the previous morning when the teachers voted to defy a court order. The bargaining, which had been inter¬ mittently conducted through out the year began in earnest following a Janu¬ ary 23 school board meeting during which approximately 250 parents locked the school board and the negotiating team in, forcing them to bargain in good faith. At 3:45 a.m. school board mem¬ bers left the bargaining room, and board member Anthony Baldin announced to the awaiting group, You can all go home, it is settled, and there will be school today. Of the corporation ' s 250 teachers ap¬ proximately 200 participated in the strik¬ ing action. Ron Graham, LCTA ' s presi¬ dent, stated that without the overwhelming support of the teachers and parents, we could never have reached an acceptable agreement.
