As some of the miners are eating lunch at the section dinner hole, Jeb, a younger miner, asks about the notice of the chest x-ray program he has seen on the company bulletin board. The miners begin talking about the program. Questions are raised about the purpose of the program, how it operates, what happens to the x-rays, and if it is important for miners to participate in the program. As these matters are discussed you are asked to give your advice and opinions about these matters. As the exercise is completed, the miners will learn more about this program.
