States govern- ment sought in obtaining an in- junction from the Taft-Hartley| labor law to end the strike and open the mills. Steel works across the country began reopening Saturday, a few hours after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the, injunction that will keep the mills running for the 80-day cooling-off period. Only a handful of men--mostly maintenance workers -- started work Saturday. for the tedious job of reopening the mills. But by Monday, long-idle steelmen were being recalled by the thousands as iron-making blast furnaces and steel-making open hearth fur- naces were started. 35 PER CENT BACK As more men were recalled to- day, an estimated 35 per cent of the country's 500,000 basic steel workers were back on the job. But industry spokesmen say it will be weeks before production amounts to much. Among plants turning out new steel Monday were Republic Steel's Buffalo plants, Bethlehem Steel's San Francisco works, Jones and Laughlin's Cleveland works and Bethlehem's Steelton, Pa., plant. 5 Rabbit Hunters Found Safe ST. JOHN'S, Nfld. (CP)--Five rabbit hunters missing since Sat- urday in marshy woods 35 miles from here were found safe and well early today. The men were found by a lone searcher travelling in a boat. |Thev were huddled together in a {boathouse at old sea pond, the {only shelter they had been able to find since losing their way | Saturday.

He said the other two conditions are relaxation of inter- national tensions and understand- ling in advance among the West- ern powers. The French leader told a crowded press conference that there were signs of a reduction in international tension on the So- viet side. "At the present time," de Gaulle said, '"'the Soviet Union is avstaining from throwing oil on the fire. It has even suspended federal injunction sending the striking steelworkers back to work for an 80-day cooling-off period.

The girls had overpowered the jail matron, Mrs. James Suther- land, wife of the jail's governor, and 'held her hostage in their at- tempt. Their efforts were foiled by a other Oshawa girl, Linda Hill, 1 who sounded the alarm.

So says Bob Crosby, Bing's 46- year-old kid brother, while flatly denying his wife's assertion that he beat her Saturday night and that she stabbed him with a let- ter opener in self-defence. Crosby suffered a gashed shoul- der. His wife June, 39, said one of her ribs was broken in the quarrel. The incident occurred only a few hours after the band leader and -TV personality had played golf with Vice-President Richard Nixon. Crosby said Monday that his wife flew into a rage when he asked her where their three boys were and she didn't know, Mrs. Crosby told reporters her hus- band was in a "violent mood and wanted to fight with someone."

Neither announced any plans for divorce, however. Crosby said a series of family crises led up to the ruckus. Cathy, 20, eldest of the couple's five children, is in a hospital suf- fering from what her mother calls a mental breakdown. "We'd been to the hospital ear- lier in the day, talking to Cathy's |doctor about her illness," Crosby said. "We have had problems, like many parents have, with all our children. I'm afraid this latest news will give Cathy a set- back." Mrs. Crosby said her husband had been drinking and had come home in a belligerent mood. Crosby denied he had been drink- ing. | Mrs, Crosby said she grabbed the letter opener for self-protec- tion after he knocked her down without provocation. Crosby said the argument be-| came violent when he asked her where the boys were. "She didn't know," he said, "I told her that we should always know where the kids are and who they are with at all times. "This enraged her, and she {came at me pounding with her fists at my shoulders. I didn't see any letter opener -- I didn't feel any. Yet she stabbed me with it five times.
