With His All-Stars
tofchm
"Dixieland is a way you feel
it ain't something you say," says
Louis Armstrong, the King of
Dixieland jazz, whose famous
band will be appearing here next
Saturday for the spring Germans.
"Satchmo," along with his
"Dixieland All-Stars," will be
featured at a concert from 4 to
6 next Saturday afternoon and
the dance from 8 to 12 that
night.
The Armstrong legend began
39 years ago in New Orleans
amid the honky tonks and dance
halls. Young Satchmo spent
hours watching Joe (King), Oli
ver, one of the greatest jazzmen
of all time, who then worked in
a cabaret. It was Oliver who
persuaded Louis to read music,
to play the cornet, and finally,
to try the trumpet. It has been
Armstrong, the gravel voice, and
the hot trumpet ever since.
Recognized as one of the fore
most singers among jazz vocal
ists, Armstrong sings in almost
the same low, raspy, yet strange
ly effective voice he used when
he was 11. People then called
him Satchelmouth. This was

IThe 300 spectators saw a terrific

entertainment was backstage.
Coed Mary Kit Myers was fran

Stricter Hours,
No Drinking
Ate Specified
Students Turn Down
Administration Plan,
So Up To Each Frat
By LOUIS KRAAR
The Administration yesterday
offered individual fraternities a
temporary coed visiting plan that
is less liberal than the old visiting
agreement. Student representa
tives turned down the same plan
earlier this week.
The plan allows coed visiting in
fraternity houses on a "restricted
The specified hours which the
Administration offered for wom
en visiting are: Sunday through
Thursday noon to midnight;
Friday noon to 2 a.m. Saturday;
Saturday--noon to 3 a.m. Sunday.
basis" and provides for specified
hours during which the houses
may receive woman visitors. No
drinking may take place "within
or on the premises of any fratern
ity house while women visitors
are present"
The Administration's proposal,
in effect, is the same as the old
agreement but expanded to in
clude restrictions on imports as
well as coeds. Previously, the Uni
versity declared that coeds could
not drink or be in the presence of
those drinking on fraternity prop
erty. Now it is saying that this
applies , also to all "women visi
tors" "coed, import, or other."
Dean of Students Fred H. Wea
ver, in submitting the plan to
fraternities, declared, "We real
ize, of course, that this proposal
leaves' something to be desired
when viewed from the point of
view of the student representa
tives and perhaps others, but we
feel that for the remainder of
this school year a relaxation of
the complete ban on visiting is de
sired by all.
"This is offered, simply, as the
best that can be done at this
time."
Student body President Tom
Creasy agreed with Dean Weaver,
saying, "I personally feel that this
temporary plan is in no way bet
ter than the old visiting agree
ment. But I also feel that it is
necessary to resume visiting on
some basis until we are able to
work out a more sensible and
more agreeable plan.
"I have gone along with this
tomnnnrv plan only to the ex-
J tent that we continue work day
ing plan."
Thus, coeds may be back in the
fraternity houses again if frater
nities accept the plan. Just how
the fraternities will react to tne
. proposal isn't known.
