Simmons Supreme Court Lincoln, Nebraska. Dear Judge Simmons: Although we have never met, your name has come across my desk many times. One day I hope we may have the pleasure of getting together for a chat - both being interested in labor relations and, in particular, its more perplexing problems - the setting of grievances. I have before me the decision in the Gitt versus Colonial Airlines grievance case; also attached is a letter from one of our attorneys, Mr. Schy, wherein he asks for an interpretation of your decision. He covers a number of questions that appear to be in need of certain clarifications. Attorneys are inclined to be a little argumentative at times but basically, I too find myself a bit unclear on the exact interpretation of this determination. I know that Mr. Schy's letter has never bee replied to. Perhaps it is the wrong approach in securing an interpretation of a decision. Perhaps something more formal is what would be deemed more proper. In any event, in view of the fact that the question of interpretation has arisen, I would like to hear from you at your convenience as to what you might suggest. With kind personal regards, I am Sincerely yours, Air Line Pilots Association David L. Behncke, President DLB:ls cc: M. A. Gitt
