NO CAUSE FOR JOY:
Term Opening Regarded As
Headache by Revelli and Band
To many students, the opening of
a new term is a cause for pleasant an-
ticipation, but to the personnel of
the University Marching Band a new
term means a headache, in the con-
sidered opinion of the band's director,
Prof. William D. Revelli.
Organized into a complete unit for
the summer term, the break in semes-
ters has disrupted the personnel of
the marching unit, and with the loss
of 35 per cent of its musicians be-
tween terms, new members must be
secured and initiated into the intri-
cate system of formations that have
made the University Marching Band
one of the foremost in the nation.
Behind-Scene Activities
Its first meeting of the fall term
held only last Tuesday, the band was
already functioning on the gridiron
yesterday. The popular reception it
received was due to the behind-the-
scenes activity that must precede
each appearance.
Every maneuver of the band is
carefully planned beforehand on a
miniature reproduction of the foot-
ball gridiron, with small figures rep-
resenting each man in the band. The
formations are staged by moving the
fgures on the model.
Split-second Timing
Split-second timing is the keynote
to the band's successful maneuvers.
Winter Heralds
Return of Colds
The cold season is back again and
with it the danger of the 'cold germ.'
Students are urged to take precau-
tions at the first sign of this common
affliction by checking with Health
Service. Hoarseness and congestion
in the chest should be watched, Dr.
Margaret Bell, physician at Health
Service, pointed out. If you don't
care about yourself, she said, at least
consider others with whom you come
in contact during classes.
Three cases of pneumonia have al-
ready been reported this semester.
The danger of glandular fever is
as great as ever, Dr. Bell said.
Difficulties of music performance,
dress and alignment are heightened
by the band's cadence, Prof. Revelli's
unit marching to a metronome speed
of 156, as compared to the usual band
cadence of 132.
Tryouts are still being held, Prof.
Revelli announced, and new men are
being placed in the ranks.

Senate Hunts
Missing Jap
War Message
Service Merger, Free
Press Are Problems
By DOUGLAS B. CORNELL
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3-Congress
pried into these intriguing topics to-
day:
Reports of a missing message said
by some senators to show that Japan
was going to fight the United States.
A hitherto secret survey that
showed high Navy officers at one
time were split about fifty-fifty on a
merger with the Army.
Ad this was going on, too, on a
day when neither Senate nor House
was open for business:
Required Free Press
A powerful group of House mem-
bers disclosed plans to tack onto
every bill for helping foreign coun-
tries a requirement for a "free press."
Republican members of a Senate-
House committee investigating the
Pearl Harbor disaster were said to be
on the hunt for that reportedly miss-
ing war message.
They want to find out whether this
report is true or untrue:
The Navy, before the Japanese
smash at Pearl Harbor, decoded a
Japanese message: "East winds, rain-
ing."
This was supposed to have sig-
nalled enemy forces that the war was
on.
Now the message is missing from
war department files. And records or
radio monitoring stations for the pe-
riod of its interception have been de-
stroyed.
Service Merger Poll
That Army-Navy merger survey
counted noses 10 months ago. The
joint chiefs of staff polled 40 Army,
37 Navy and 3 Marine officers. Now
the study has been turned over to
the S en a te Military Committee,
which is considering a merger. It
shows:
"Almost exactly half" the Navy
officers favored a single department
of defense. So did the "great major-
ity" of Army men.
But since the survey was made,I
some admirals, like Chester W.
Nimitz and William F. Halsey, have
changed their stand. Now the Navy
is battling a merger.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3-All the signs in this jam-packed city today

Eastern Bus Tie-up
Threatens To Spread
By The Associated Press
The nation's strike idle, up 1,000
since yesterday, has risen to 269,000.
Major strike developments:
Shipbuilding -24-hour "protest"
work stoppage by 75,000 to 100,000
AFL Union members in New Orleans
threatened if congress refuses to in-
vestigate closing of three Higgins in-
dustries plants.
Transportation - Strike of AFL
Greyhound bus drivers in 19 Eastern
states threatens to spread to nation-
wide walkout; strike of Oklahoma
drivers called for midnight Saturday;
presidents of two strike-bound Grey-
hound divisions decline government
offer to meet with union in Washing-
ton.
Machinists-Six-day strike of ma-
chinists affecting 60,000 workers in
200 San Francisco Bay area plants
continues; labor, management blame
each other for deadlock.
Lumber-Settlement between non-
striking CIO lumber workers and Big
Fir operators termed by federal con-
ciliators a "hopeful sign" toward end-
ing 40-day strike of 60,000 AFL lum-
ber workers in Pacific Northwest.

penalty clauses in agreements, an of-
ficial of the national association of
manufacurers said. In case of a
breached contract, workers would be
penalized by having wages and vaca-
tion pay withheld, or by some other
action.
The business delegation does not
want the wake-price question to come
before the conference. Their position
is that this controversy can only be
settled by collective bargaining-and
that it was not President Truman's
intention, in calling the meeting, to
have anything discussed except meth-
ods of minimizing labor strife.
However, labor leaders assert the
wage-price question is the basic
cause of controversy and for this
reason should be brought out into the
open in conference discussions.
