Freshman Violinist No Amateur; He Fiddles On the Road To Fame
A violin soloist, orchestra member,
and conductor--you get all three in
Richard Ferrin, College freshman
from Pratt.
2.
This semester has been Ferrin's first at the University, but already he has played a violin solo with the K.U. concert band, and he will appear in the second series of advanced student recitals Wednesday, playing "Hora Staccato" by Dinuci-Heifetz. This composition is considered to be one of the most difficult compositions for the violin.
Ferrin is no amateur, however and such performances are not new to him. He has played over major networks as a violin soloist. He is considered by a former teacher, a member of the Chicago Symphony orchestra, to be one of the outstanding young violinists in the United States.
Concert-master of the National High school symphony orchestra is one of his past accomplishments. He has studied conducting with Guy Fraser Harrison of the Eastman School of Music, and he strives to conduct entire symphonies from memory.
During the war, he contributed to
the music at Great Lakes Naval Training station. As a member of the Navy Symphony orchestra, he toured war bond shows, gave concerts weekly, and broadcast twice a week. He also sang bass with the famous Sunday morning Blue-Jacket choir.
He has performed under some of the finest conductors in the world and as an orchestra member has accompanied leading artists. He performed the Bach Concerto in D Minor for two violins with Bert Radecki, Polish-American violinist
Ferrin is a student of Waldemar Geltch of the violin department.

Vets May Study At Foreign Schools Under G.I.Bill
Veterans may attend approved foreign educational institutions under the G.I. bill, according to E.R. Elbel of the campus veterans offices.
For the present, the State department is not issuing passports to students wishing to study in Germany, Austria, Japan, or Korea. Passports are not necessary for the veteran going to Canada, Newfoundland, Cuba, Guatemala, or Mexico, Mr. Belel said.
Any person who plans to attend a foreign educational institution in a non-English speaking country should assure himself that he can speak and understand the language in which the classes will be conducted.
The veteran must make all arrangements with the foreign school for acceptance in the course of his choice. The student will pay his own transportation to that school, and will make his own living arrangements. The veteran should be sure he has funds to last three or four months until the subsistence allowance comes through, cautioned Mr. Elbel.
A student now enrolled in a college in this country who wishes to attend a foreign school must obtain approval of the manager of the regional office having jurisdiction over his education.
