Before TONE and WOOD, Circuit Judges, and WILL, Senior District Judge.


TONE, Circuit Judge.

This action by an employer against a local union under § 303 of the Labor Management Relations Act raises the question of whether a strike was protected by the work preservation doctrine established in National Woodwork Manufacturers Association v. NLRB, 386 U.S. 612, 87 S.Ct. 1250, 18 L.Ed.2d 357 (1967). The district court, after trial, held that it was. We disagree and reverse the judgment.
