We have taken our 43-year expertise in high- volume buying, low-discount pricing and high-volume selling that we're famous for in TV's and major ap- pliances, and applied it to the world of audio. We're one of very few dealers (and we mean so few, that you could probably count the number on one hand) in Michigan and Ohio who has enough capital to be in the business. This allows us to pay every one of our bills ahead of the time they're due. The manufacturers give us extra discounts to do this. We then own the merchandise for less - and we can sell it for less. That is in addition to the special price consideration we receive from the manufacturers because of the huge quantities we buy every month. Plus; every one of our customers gets our famous 30-day written low-price guarantee which states that if you see the same item at any of our competitors anywhere in the area for less, within 30 days of purchase, we'll refund the difference, plus 10% of the difference. You just can't go wrong with a Highland price! Our suppliers love us. Our customers love us. Our competitors hate us. Listen: It's a jungle out there. Note to our competitors: If you can't stand the heat - get out of the kitchen.

"They claim they offered us a ten per cent raise, but in re- ality it was only six per cent," he added. "Hell, if they had of- fered us ten per cent, we'd be working now." UNIVERSITY PERSONNEL Director Wayne Douglas, re- sponding to the charges, said:j "I think, in fact I know . . . that the University met with the unions (Thursday)ralong with a mediator. And after nine to ten hours the mediator re- commended that both parties suspend negotiations because of lack of progress. "The University negotiators stayed at the meeting . . . un- til the UAW members had left. We were available, we did not walk out," he added. "We never offered them a ten per cent wage increase," Dougilas said, "and it was un- reasonable of them to ask. We can't give what we don't have."

They're cheating, they're ripping the supervisors off."I Other strikers echoed his sen- timents, explaining that money was not the only issue. "We report overtime each week just for laughs," said one woman., "We never get paid time-and-a-' half, even though we're made1 to work a minimum of forty hours a week. Those overtime hours include weekends and nights." The two locals have tried to stop food delivery to the dormi- tories. When the Teamsters who deliver the food agreed to honor the picket lines, the University arranged for students to de- liver it. ONE STUDENT passenger in a food delivery truck said,I "Yes, we're delivering but we're honoring picket line4." However, the driver of the truck indicated the opposite. "We're just delivering food, we're not honoring any picket lines," said the driver. "We're not talking to the press. If you print anything, I'll dispute it." "These negotiations have been going on since October", said Ray, "All they (the Uni- versity) do is accuse us of being money-hungry grabbers". Members of the two locals hope thatbthe strike will not continue beyond the weekend, but some are not optimistic. "I'm hoping for a weekend settlement", said one woman striker. "Actually, praying is more like it. But the Univer- sity would like to see how long they can wait us out". "That's, ridiculous", respond- ed Douglas when told of her comment. "We didn't want this strike in the first place." * A y ... ''i illy: .t '1 \I _ County govt. study committee formed DUAL TURNTABLES PRICED THRU SUNDAY!

THE COMMITTEE was di- rected to make its initial report on the matter to the Board's Ways and Means Committee on April 14. "You're studying every as- pect of county government," said Stumbo, who proposed the slate of committee members. Members will study "the ques- tion of an Elected County Exe- cutive, an Appointed County Executive, a County Manager, and a Charter form of county government, reviewing the pow- ers and duties of each, and the restructuring of county govern- ment with the projected costs of each form of government to es- tablish a more efficient and ef- fective county government," ac- cording to the Budget Commit- tee proposal. THE PROPOSAL came about after pasage of a 1974 Michigan statute allowing for the restruc- turing of county governments. Commissioners are divided in their opinions as to which form of government would be the most efficient - however, most seem to feel some change is necessary. in the present system, accord- ing to Stumbo, "It usually takes months for even small requests to be processed."
