Today in history
July 18, 1977: Guards at the Wisconsin State Reformatory discarded their picket signs and reported for duty this morning. I was very happy to see the men come back to work, and if I sense it properly they are happy to be back to work, said Elmer Cady, reformatory superintendent. Cady said the National Guardsmen would remain on duty for a few more days, in the transition process. State employees at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and at state offices in the area also were filtering back to work today as the 15-day strike concluded.
