Yankee Network Granted Order Restraining Union
YANKEE NETWORK was awarded a favorable court decision in an appeal against the action of the Boston Musicians' Protective Association Local No. 9 for interference in a contract signed April 1 by the network for a staff orchestra. The decision was handed down May 9 by Superior Court in Equity of Massachusetts.
The union, according to the court's ruling, had fined Director Kendis $500 for allegedly signing the contract while a transfer member before submitting it to the union for approval. The union had threatened fines, expulsion and suspension to the ten members of the orchestra, all members of the local, and they had ceased playing. The union's conduct was illegal and Kendis had not violated union rules, the court held in issuing a restraining order.

Is Television Near?
{Continued from page 13) pictures through a whole evening to see and hear full-length shows and variety performances? No, I would not. I might watch a television show for an hour or two, as I would a theater or motion picture show. But concentrate my attention on a small screen for any longer time, night after night, I could not and would not — no more than I would like to spend an entire evening or week of evenings in a movie house.
But I would like to have the televisor at hand when President Roosevelt is being broadcast visually, when Rudy Vallee is directing his show or when Henry Ford is announcing and demonstrating via television his newest models.
Even then, I still would like to go to the theater and the movies more or less regularly, as I do now, and I would still like to listen to good music on the air without being required to focus my eyes upon one spot in the room.
