The San Antonio Symphony Orchestra under the direc

A ^walkout embracing 50,0(l0 of the^
visited large and small cities
throughout the South. The concerts
which the orchestra precepted re
ceived wide acclaim! frqm sUch
cities as Jacksonville; Mobile, At
lanta, Shreveport and many others.
Several colleges were included in
the tour, among them [Georgia
Tech and the University of Flori
da where capacity crowds were on
hhnd.
The orchestra that will present
the concert'here is essentially the
same organization that presented
the tofur concerts last spring. Rei
ter makes it a policy to tailor the
concerts to the audience, which
probably accounts for the especial
success of college performances.
Although no program has been
announced for the January con
cert, the selections featured on
the spring tour may serve as a
sampling of the score to be ex
pected. Such composers' as De
bussy, Rimsky-Korsakov, Khat-
chafourian, Jerome Kern, and
Striuss Were highlighted at the
Georgia Tech concert.
Reiter has been recognized by
musical authorities throughout the
world as one of the most gifted
of-, contemporary conductors and
is credited in a large measure with
the outstanding growth and suc
cess" of the nine-year-old organiza
tion. He has been invited to con
duct Toscanini’s NBC Symphony
Orchestra in two concerts this
coming September. j ,

condition.. In cases where, serious
violations are noted; letters may
be sent or the violators jivill be
notified personally by the council.
If these notices are not heeded
then tfie condition will be declared
a hpisance. and legal stops will be
taken. ■ — \
“The city is not unaware of
its own poor disposal system,”
said Dean Charles N. Shepard-
son, chairman of the committee
on sanitary, conditions.
It wias also pointed out that cer
tain steps^ have already, been taken
to bring about a cooperation plan
with the college whereby a piece
of college property may be allocat
ed foil the erection of a disposal
system to be used by both- the
college] and the city. In case an
agreement, cannot be reached it
was understood that thq city would
have to proceed on its [own.
In regard to the burning of
trash the council insisted that the
present ordinance be observed. It
is unlawful at the present time to
start a fire of any kind for any
reason; and the council feels that
due to the outbreak of grass fires
in this {area i this ordinance will
have to 'be enforcM.- .'.
Sewage disposal was another
topic considered at last night's
meeting. Due to the present Inad
equate system L. E. Winder has
contacted u consulting engineer on
the adytoability of buildlhg a hew
disposal unit. Surveying has been
done and u site lor the new unit
is under consideration.
One of the main hazardp In the
College Station area is the dump
ing of raw sewage in the North
Gate section by the City of Bryan.
This has been the condition for
some time and the council feels
that since sanitary conditions in
Bryan closely parallel pur own, ; a
joint sewage system may be work
ed out in this particular area.
It was pointed out; thi$; close co
operation by the people of College
Station and surrounding areas
could make the clean-up campaign
a permanent thing. In .the case
of. garbage, if the city could not
pick up tne trash, then it would
be the responsibility of the indi
vidual to see that the garbage was
disposed of. The council urged
that any complaints be registered
immediately as it is the pity’s du
ty to assist wherever possible.
Many people are not aware of
the city’s plan for the cleaning yf
vacant lots. If your lot is too large
or you can’t find the time to clean
it, then notify the-city, and they
will arrange to have your] lot mow
ed at a charge of $2.50 an hour
with a njiinimum of $2.50.
The County Health Unit was
praised for‘its work in helping to.
locate many of the most danger
ous areas. A. C. Allen, who is in
pharge of the unit, said that as
a result of the clean-up, the num
ber of cases of dysentery has been
cut in half. ff 1
