The strike against the Harvard Printing Office moves into its third day today, with no end in sight. Negotiators met for two and a half hours yesterday afternoon in Holyoke Center, then parted without setting a date for further talks.

"There is nothing on the table," David Hussey, vice-president of Local 3 of the Lithographers and Photoengravers International Union (AFL-CIO), said afterwards. "All Harvard is offering is a proposal to negotiate some time in the future, and we don't think that's bargaining in good faith."

Willing to Meet

John Butler, associate director of personnel for Harvard, said that the University would be willing to meet again if the union asked to resume talks, but he declined to disclose any details of the dispute.

The Printing Office is functioning despite the walkout. Its associate director. Carl Getz, has said that it will be able to print all University exams, using supervisory personnel to operate the lithographic presses.

Picket Planned

Hussey said that the union may set up a picket line in Harvard Square later this week. He said that if Buildings and Grounds workers vote to strike at a meeting Thursday night, the two unions may work together to publicize the walk-outs.

The lithographers are asking wage increases ranging from 14 to 37 cents an hour. They also want a 35-hour work-week; they currently work 37 1/2 hours a week. Union spokesmen say that Harvard has not made an offer on either issue.
