STRIKER MARRIED.
Couple Separated By Iron Fence. Press Association —Copyright. Philadelphia, Jan. 14. An iron fence separated William McGuire, a sit-down striker in the plant of a storage battery company, and his fiancee, Theresa Grike, but they were married to-day holding hands through the fence, while 1200 strikers inside and 2000 friends and relatives outside watched and cheered. The strikers’ band of twelve instruments played lohengrin’s wedding march slightly off key and loudspeakers at the strike headquarters nearby blared Sousa’s “Bride Elect March.’’ Following the ceremony the bride returned home and the bridegroom was hustled to the courtyard of one of the buildings, where the strikers serenaded him.
