Abstract
The abstract of these proceedings is keyed to a time-track like the other TWUA interviews, but it is much less detailed. The tapes have two tracks: a voice track containing the discussion and a time track containing time announcements at intervals of approximately five seconds. The abstract lists, in order of discussion, the topics covered by each tape, and indicates the time-marking at which point the beginning of the particular discussion appears.
Thus, the researcher by using a tape recorder's fast-forward button may find expeditiously and listen to discrete segments without listening to all of the taped discussion. For instance, the user who wishes to listen to the portion “Scott Hoyman: Greetings and Welcome” should locate the place on the second track of side one, tape one, where the voice announces the 10:15 time-marking (the voice says at this point, “Ten Minutes, Fifteen Seconds”), and at this point switch to the first track to hear the discussion. The portion “Scott Hoyman: Greetings and Welcome” continues until approximately 23:50 at which point the portion “John Fox--ACTWU Vice President and Manager of Philadelphia Joint Board” begins.
Notice that in some cases sentences beneath each headline explain more about the contents of that portion. For example the sentence underneath “Scott Hoyman: Greetings and Welcome” gives further details on what appears on the tape between 10:15 and 23:50.
