In an NLRIl case hearing al Steubenville,

was in agreement with an administrative
law judge who found the employer, Ohio
Po~er Company, had violated the act by
dischuging economie strilcn Larry Grttnc
and Joe Campbell.
The Company did not comply with the
NLRB decisions. and inSlc",d petilioned the
United States Coort of Appeals for the sixth
circuit 10 review the order. The Court's
rcview of the Board's ordcr found that thc
Company had violated Ihe aCI in the discharge
of lMry Grcene only, and did not
support the Board'S decision for Joe Campbell.
Brothcr L,rry Greene returned to work
on September 21. 1976, with full reinstatement

Company's discrimination against him, plus
