Monkeys On Vacation Like Michigan City MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. (UPD— Twenty-one vacationing monkeys apparently like it here so well they don’t want to go home. Robert Wagner, director of the Washington Park Zoo, said he was “having fits.” trying to catch the Javanese anthropoids in order to return them to a New York City company. He rents them every summer for the zoo’s monkey island. He said apparently they just “don’t want to go home.” Wagner and some zoo employes started to round up the monkeys last Tuesday. His plan was to place food in the underground tunnels on the 50-foot island, which is surrounded by a moat, and when the monkeys went underground to eat, he planned to seal off the tunnels and capture them. However, the monkeys would not go into the tunnels. Wednesday, Wagner invaded monkey island with some more men and tried to capture the little monkeys. But still he had no luck. And Thursday he tried to use a fire hose to flush them into the tunnels, but with the same result. Wagner said now he is just going to “play a waiting game.” When the weather turns cooler, he said, the monkeys will go into the tunnels and "then we’ll be able to capture them.”

The technical and complicated issues involve only 1,000 union members, but their walkout has idled 5,400 other Grand Trunk employes. The strike has forced shutdown of two Chevrolet engine plants in Flint, and Miriani has warned that 100,000 Detroit-area workers will be laid off if the strike isn’t settled soon. In its telegram to NMB executive secretary E. C. Thompson, Grand Trunk indicated it would submit the entire dispute to arbitration—not just the five unsettled issues. The NMB offered to arbitrate the matters nine months ago when negotiations started, but the brotherhood refused at that time. Grand Trunk operates in Michigan, Indiana and Illinois and runs a ferry service across Lake Michigan to Wisconsin.

Famed Opera Singer Dies In Stockholm STOCKHOLM, Sweden (UPD — Famed opera singer Jussi Bjoerling, 49, died suddenly today of a heart attack at his summer estate at Siaroe in the Stockholm archipelago. The tenor, who has scored outstanding hits in appearances in the United States and Europe, had been ailing for some time. In the past few years, he had been forced to cancel several engagements at the last minute because of his heart. Last March 15, he suffered a heart seizure while appearing in the opera “La Boheme” at Covent Garden in London. Two weeks ago, Bjoerling was compelled to cancel a scheduled concert at Groeqa Lund amusement park because of a heart seizure. Bjoerling made his debut at the Royal Opera House in Stockholm in 1930. He was appointed court singer in 1945. Bjoerling was married and the father of two sons and a daughter. The fair-haired singer had been acclaimed by many critics as the greatest tenor in the world today. His death followed by only a few months that of baritone Leonard Warren, who collapsed on stage during a performance at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and died later in the wings.

Nikita Impact On Election Foreseen WASHINGTON (UPD—A veteran newsman predicted today that Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev’s visit to the United States will have a troublesome impact on the U.S. presidential campaign Merriman Smith, UPI White House reporter, said Khrushchev will “undoubtedly be his usual abusive self*’ and his presence in this country may prompt both presidential candidates to “try to outdo each other in denouncing him.” Smith and Herbert Klein, press secretary to Vice President Richard M. Nixon, spoke at a morning session of United Press International’s Washington conference for editors and publishers. Top news executives from all parts of the nation are attending the twoday coriference which ends tonight. Klein said that Nixon, who had been scheduled to address the conference today, deeply regretted that his hospitalisation for a leg infection prevented bis appearance. Klein said Nixon is “making very good progress” toward recovery and expects to hit the campaign trail with full vigor Monday. | Klein also said that Nixon is “very hopeful this will be a hard but clean campaign, fought on the issues and not forced below them.” Klein expressed admiration for the news coverage which the election campaign has received to date and paid partrcuter tribute to UPI for what he called an "honest, objective and thorough job” on both political conventions and the campaign.

Proposes Change In Teachers Licenses COLUMBUS, Ind. (UPD—Philip Willkie, the Republican nominee for superintendent of public instruction, proposed Thursday night “that requirements for teacher licenses be changed” to eliminate many education courses and substitute Credits in the baste fields. Willkie. Rushville banker-lawyer and son of 1940 Republican presidential nominee Wendell Willkie, said this would make it possible for more of "our good teachers to pursue studies in their chosen fields.” Willkie has said that high school courses in certain academic subjects be stressed more and that more students should be guided into these classes rather than certain subjects he has labeled "easy courses.” Willkie told a meeting of Bartholomew County Republicans at Burnsville, near Columbus, that “teachers should be allowed to break the shackles that have been placed upon them by the professional educationists, and become well-informed In the basic knowledge of their subjects.” He said that some courses on how to teach were important, but there has been too much emphasis placed on these courses in Indiana. "A teacher who is well-informed in the subject matter,” Willkie said, “in all probability will be a
