An Associated Press dispatch from New York City reports that by a 3 to 2 decision the Appellate Division of New York State Supreme Court has ruled that the musicians’ and stagehands’ unions should be permitted to use legal and peaceful means to oppose an opera company’s use of "Canned Music"® The ruling reversed an order issued just a year ago by Supreme Court Justice Kenneth P, O’Brien which permanently enjoined the two unions from interfering with Opera-On-Tour, Inc., in a dispute over the use of amplified recorded music versus living musicians. Opera-On-Tour, Inc., was organized in February, 1938. It was designed to take popular-priced opera to smaller cities and instead of an orchestra, the accompaniment arid some choral singing was produced from records. The company opened at Richmond, Va., November 4, 1938 and closed at Chapel Hill, N.C., on November 22 after the stage hands walked out at the request of the Musicians’ Union. The suit for an'injunction then was filed. RESEARCH AT UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS The South’s first radio research bureau recently started its machinery at the University of Texas, A. L.
