With the coming of the fall semester of 1941 the traditional "rush" week for sororities and fraternities will be combined with a new freshman week schedule. All new students will come to the campus at the same time.
The opening convoitation at which Chancellor Malott speaks to all University students will be held on Wednesday, the day classes start, instead of the following Friday.
Advance Enrollment Date
Rushing activities will be carried on during the same days that freshman week activities are scheduled, according to a new ruling passed by the University Senate yesterday afternoon.
"The chief difference which the new arrangement will make is in requiring new students to come to the campus two days earlier than usual and returning students one day earlier.
"Stress Rushing"
"We hope to avoid the seeming stress on fraternity and sorority activities at the beginning of the new school year and to concentrate more attention on the University activities proper," said Dean J. H. Nelson, chairman of the freshman week committee, in speaking of the change.

sweet music with reasonable amount of swing thrown in for the jitterbugs, Royce Stoenner and his orchestra will provide the rhythm for the Men's Inter-fraternity dance in the Memorial Union ballroom Friday night.
Steinners' orchestra, which features Betty Bennett on the vocals, is coming here from an engagement at the Pla-Mor Ballroom in Lincoln. These swingsters also played for the Sigma Nu party on the Hill last month.
Steenner makes his fronting count for more than mere decoration, utilizing a pleasing personality that
swing fans everywhere have admired. He takes a turn on the trumpet himself on practically every number. This makes a four-man brass section and with four reeds and three rhythm instruments, the band puts out a type of music which appeals to all.
The band music is highlighted by two musical clowns, Curtis Haas, the tenor sax man, and Max Fisher, a trumpeter whose falsetto novelties score heavily with the on-lookers.
Bob Davis and Betty Bennett provide the vocals in a personable manner. Miss Bennett is a particular asset with her original entertaining style and clever rhythm wordage.

Fete Set For March 15 Carnival To Hill
A real, honest-to-goodness carnival is coming to the Hill.
Resplendent with all the trimmings and paraphernalia of an old-time show, the carnival will arrive at the Memorial Union building at 8 p.m., March 15, and will beat the welcome drums until 11.
According to Betsy Dodge, fine arts sophomore, advance agent for the show, it will be called the Small Change Carnival, because there will be no admittance charge and practically all the shows will reveal themselves to dazzled eyes for the price of one penny.
Among the many gala events will be a fortune-teller, a shooting gallery, dart games, milk bottle and ball games, Bingo, fish ponds, and a pond containing real live ducks ready to
take an awful beating while everybody aims rings for their necks.
The staff in charge of the carnival includes Nation Meyer, college sophomore, chairman; Barbara Koch, college sophomore; Ben Mantz, fine arts sophomore; Fred Mitchelson, college freshman; Dorothy Wise, senior business; Betsy Dodge, fine arts sophomore; Keith Spalding, college junior; Jack Waugh, college freshman; Frank Arnold, college sophomore; and Ray Helgesen, college freshman.

"Although we don't conduct the conventions with the intentions of making a profit," Kuersteiner said, "we came out well on the black side of the ledger. With this year's profit we will publish a booklet for K.M.T.A. members showing the development of our group over the past 33 years."

W.S.G.A. Postpones Council Meeting
The meeting of the Women's Self-
Governing Association, scheduled
for last night, was postponed be-
cause there was no important business pending and because of the Philharmonic concert, O'Thene Huff,
president of the council explained
today.
A meeting later in the week may be called if a suitable time for all members can be found. The two matters before the council now are the M.S.C. proposal to study the merits of a combined council and the plan to remodel the women's lounge in Frank Strong hall, neither of which merited urgent consideration, the women legislators decided, although the solo council proposal has awaited action by the women's council for two weeks.
If no meeting is called this week, the next meeting of the executive council of the W.S.G.A. will be Tuesday.
