NEW’ YORK. Aug. S.—Tlic second;
phase of the walkout ordered by the
Musical Mutual Protective Association
came today. when musicians employ“
ed in approximately 100 - vaudeville
theaters were ordered to stay out of
the orchestra pits. Most of the vaude—
ville managers claimed to be ready
with new orchestras. recruited from.
the ranks of the-American Federation
of Musicians.
_ Moving picture houses felt the fore:
the walkout yesterday. when or—
chestras failed to report. under an or.
der of the "anion effective Saturday at
midnight. Movie managers met the
situation in various ways. Some em-
ployed new orchestras. while others
rtliPdi on pianos or organs. Vocalists
were featured at some houses. Ir:
others the orchestra 'pits were con—
verTed in flower gardens.
The walkout was ordered as a pro—
test against a proposed wage reduc-
tion. and was intended. union officials
said. to forestall a Iockout'which the
managers were declared to have plan<
ned for tomorrow.
