"No, we're not using any two- platoon systems," explained Soriano. "Joe and Pete were members of the musicians' union.

The union raised a kick about its members playing for free. So now we're all what we were supposed to be in the first place just plain amateurs having a good time at the ball park." Serenade LelbowiU Yesterday, the Sym-Phony's portable bandshell was shifted temporarily to Pier 32 in Man- hattan, where the embattled musicians gave Judge Leibo-; witz a serenaded sendoff the jurist said he would never for get.

"We just had to take off from our jobs, judge," said Soriano, his snare drum now beating time for a rendition of "South of the Border." By the time they swung into "Auld Lang Syne," the final number of a long and loud impromptu program, the musicians had boarded the vessel, been toasted to a round of drinks by gaping stevedores, received personal assurances from the captain that all would go well on the cruise and then renewed assurances from Judge Leibowitz that the Citizens Committee to Protect the Dodger Sym-Phony would continue on the job during his absence.
