The announcement is not to be construed as a reflection upon fraternities and sororities, President Joseph A. Brandt said. The two main objectives of the new order are to prevent further "indiscrections" such as rush week violations, and to enable organized houses to fit into the new over-all 12-month university program.
There'll be no more fraternity and sorority rush weeks, hazing of students by either Greek or non-Greek groups, or walkouts of pledges from their chapters, at the University of Oklahoma for the duration, probably for all time.
"Henceforth, all fraternities and sororites will become in fact as well as principle a part of the approved housing program of the university. Housemothers will have a responsibility in the future to the counselor of men or the counselor of women," states a new regulation.
Homecoming: But No Bonfire
Homecoming was celebrated at the University of Nebraska over the weekend without a bonfire and burning of Indiana's effigy. Fireworks were set off intermittently in the stadium to show spirit.

Uses Violins In Band
TICKETS FOR---friend of Tschaikowsky, the famous Russian composer, and his father conducted one of the Russian Dzar's Imperial bands. Savitt started to play the violin when he was four and at fifteen he was offered a position in the Philadelphia Symphony orchestra by Stokowski.
Because of classical background, Savitt handles well the re-dressing of old and outstanding tunes. His arrangement of Raymond Scott's "In An Eighteenth Century Drawing Room," based on Mozart's "Easy Sonata" was acclaimed throughout the nation.
Before organizing his own band, Savitt played with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra under Leopold Stokowski. He studied with this group for seven years. Later he became musical director for the National Broadcasting company in Philadelphia. Thirty-five musical units were under his direction, and Savitt set up one of these as a swing band. In this way Savitt's Tophatters were born.

Savitt combines his training of classical music with a modern swing style. His music is new, different, danceable, and entertaining. He styled his music with a distinctive off-beat, known familiarly as "shuffle-rhythm," and has pleased music-lovers of all tastes.
Played With Stokowski
A violin player himself, Savitt once used this instrument in several of his numbers. The success of this venture led him to include several arrangements in the band's repertoire which featured the violin. By the use of these arrangements, his popular "sweet swing" was popularized.
The love of music comes naturally to Savitt. His grandfather was a

After its publication in the United States, he resigned from the Times to devote all of his time to bringing about the Federal Union of democracies his book proposed.
After the fall of the European continental democracies, Streit proposed the wartime union of the remaining ones in another book entitled "Union Now With Britain." This book advocates that the United States, instead of going into the war on the basis of an alliance with the British, should establish a provisional Federal Union with them as the nucleus of a world government, and call a convention to work out a broader, more permanent constitution.
Streit, who is president of Federal Union, Inc., announced his positino and that of other Federal Unionists when he stated taat Federal Unionists believe that if a free society is to exist anywhere in the world, the United Nations must win a complete victory over the Axis dictators and militarists and establish a just and durable peace.
