(By Associated Press)
Indianapolis, Nov. 1.-A nation wide
strike of coal miners seemed inevit-
able tonight if operators heer the in-
junction issued by Federal Judge A. B.
Anderson, whcih described the "check
off" of union views.
A telegram sent late today from
headquarters of the United Mine
Workers of America afted it had been
definitely learned that the injunction
was not yet in effect, advised union
officials to regard discontinuance- of
the "check off" as breaking the exist-
ing wage agreement.
Message Signed by Officers
The telegram signed by President
John L. Lewis, Vice-president Phil-
lip Murray and Secretary William
Green, said: "Any abrogation or set-
ting aside of any part or section of
this agreement, including the section
providing for the checking off of dues
and assessments cannot be regarded
as other than a violation of the agree-
ment and should be treated according-
ly by the district officers and local
unions."
While no cause of conduct for union
officials was outlined by the telegram,
it was said authoratively that the in-
ternational officers regarded the strike
as the union's only weapon to enforce
a contract.
Many States Affected
The states into which the massage
was sent were Pennsylvania, Ohio,
West Virginia, Illinois, Indiana, Mis-
souri, Kentucky, Michigan, Iowa, Kan-
sas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Wy-
oming, Montana and Washington. The
message did not go to officials of the
three anthracite districts in Pennsyl-
vania or to partially organized' bitu-
minous districts, because the "check-
off" is not used there.
Dispatch of the message culminated
a seres of conferences between union
chiefs and councils that extended
throughout the day.

o . n efg yeld
to any one field

in the journalist's

work, but touched upon all of the va-
rious phases. His talk was a general
outline of the things that must be
recognized when the beginner starts
out in the work.,
Cynicism Explained
He spoke of the cynicism of the
majority of newspaper men and de-
clared that much of this was caused
because of the fact that the journal-
ist so oftentimes "sees behind the
scenes" in the political and social life
of the world. He also depicted the ex-
periences in meeting men of affairs,
sometimes in the most informal man-
ner.
In concluding Mr. Bingay spoke of
the moral el'ement in journalism,
stating that the beginner in the field
should get on a paper with a good
moral tone and should then stick to
its principles. He also declared that
the personnel of the paper, largely in
this way, was the factor that gavet
the paper its moral standpoints.
Interviewer Must Conform
Mr. Schoenfield outlined the workf
of the interviewer, and presented nu-,
merous side-agis in tnat field of the
profession. He characterized the
work of interviewing as the most fas-t
cinating of the entire game. He
enumerated the qualities that were
essential to the man who interviews,
as: breadth of knowledge, ability toj
approach and win the confidence of7
the man to be interviewed, unfailingt
accuracy, keen news sense, and ability
to convey impressions. Many of these,
he pointed out, primarily essential to
any division of the newspaper field,
were particularly applicable to inter-
viewing.
Exclusive Angles Important
"Watch for the unusual slants,",
Mr. Schoenfield said. "There is a
stereotyped kind of interview which
should be avoided. What is desired is
something which has not been written
in the numerous previous interviews1
with the man."
The meeting of the ,Press club at
which approximately 100 were pres-
ent was held shortly after a buffet
luncheon. The next meeting of the
club will be held Nov. 15, at which{
time A. W. Stace, managing editor of
the Grand Rapids Press, and A. Har-
rison, district business manager of1
the United Press association, will
speak.

SENIORITY PREFERENCE WILL'
NOT BE OBSERVED AFTER
NEXT WEDNESDAY
Approximately 3,000 students have
not filed their applications for tickets
to the Minnesota game, according to
officials in the athletic office who have
charge of the distribution.
Ticket orders are being received
in about the same numbers that they
were received for the Ohio State
game, and the indications are that the
entire stands will soon be sold. Un-
til next Wednesday the orders will be
received and filed in accord with the
class preference rule. After that
time they will be filed in order, irre-
spective of campus seniority.
The disregard of the warning issued
previous to the Ohio State game,
caused a few of the tardy individuals
to lose out on their reserve seats, and
they were forced to see the game from
the standing room, at the east end of
the gridiron.

A real University theate, containing
within its walls facilities for all cam-
pus productions, large and small, and
giving Michigan a commanding posi-
tion in educational . dramatic work
aniong all the universities of the coun-
try, is the aim of the theater commit-
tee, a branch of the Campus Dramatie
association, which has been working
on plans for the structure for the last-
two years.
It will cost a sum well in excess of
$400,000 to develop the sketches that
have already been made by the com-
mittee, of which Prof. J. Raleigh Nel-.
son, of the English department, is
chairman. The funds will all be rais-
ed by private donation and nothing
is expected by grant from the state.
Michigan May Be First
If the present sketches are evolved
into a complete architectural plan and
actual construction work started with-
in the next two years, as is expected,
Michigan will be the first university
in the country to build a large, modern
theater, fully equipped for college
dramatics on a large scale.
Moved by the inadequacy of all the
University auditoriums for dramatic
productions of any complexity, the
Campus Dramatic association two
years ago appointed the committee
that has announced tentative plans for
the project, naming Professor Nelson
chairman, and Prof. J. F. Shepard, of
the psychology department, Prof. R.
D. T. Hollister, of the oratory depart-
ment, and Prof. H. A. Kenyon, of the
romance languages departmenit, the
other members.
- Otihr Colleges Surveyed
Since that time the members of the
committee have investigated the needs
of a campus theater at Michigan and
the successful ventures at other Am-
erican colleges at every opportunity.
A large number of workshops on a
smaller scale than the one planned
here have been worked out at various
places, most notable of which are the
Harvard Workshop 47 and the Vassar
Workshop. But a laboratory theater,
intended primarily for instruction of
University students in the arts and sci-
ence of the drama, involves the devel-
opment of plans that will be in them-
selves a contribution to the technique
of the stage.
Two auditoriums are contained in
the tentative plans that have sbeen
submitted to a Detroit architect and
are being worked out. The larger au-
ditorium could be used for the la'ger
student productions, such as the Mich-
igan Union operas, the Junior and
Senior Girls' plays, and the annual
plays of the Comedy club and Masques.
It might perhaps be suitable for lec-
tures and concerts, or operas by pro-
fessional companies for which Hill
auditorium is too large or inadequate.
For All Productions
The small auditorium would be use-
ful for trial performances of original
plays by students and faculty, for ex-
perimental class work, and for the
smaller plays of the Comedy club,
Players club, and Masques. Both
stages would be completely equipped
for individual performances, but the
same dressing and property rooms
could serve both. In addition a num-
ber of rooms would be provided for
rehearsal and administrative purposes.
The University Dramatic societies
that are interested in the plans of the
Campus Dramatic association are the
Comedy club, Players club, Mimes,
French, club, Masques, Spanish club,
Classical club, Junior Girls' play, Or-
atorical association, and Senior Girls'
play.
