It was added, however, that due to the late closing date of the uni versity the railroad and train fa cilities would be taxed to the ut most during the scant two days before Dec. 25. Officials stated that bus and train lines would do "their utmost to take care of student travel adequately." For that purpose, as many extra buses as are avail able have been added to the bus schedule, while train reservations have been taken as far ahead of time as the first of the Christmas month. Thus far, no restrictions have been placed on civilian travel, altho the war department has placed a ban on more than 10 per cent of the soldiers in any one unit having furlough during between Dec. 12 and Jan. 12. Placed on all transportation since Nov. 1, a government tax of 10 percent now replaces the old tax of 5 percent, which, how ever, does not seem to phaze the student determined to spend Christmas holidays at home. Railroad officials also repoited that, contrary to popular suppo sition, girls are not traveling in vast numbers to various army posts over the country to be near their men in the services during the holiday season. Oklahoma U. Defends Tune Of Yale Song War has affected a lot of things on its campus, but the University of Oklahoma still clings to Yale university's song, "Boola Boola," which It has renamed "Eoomer Sooner." The fight over the song has be come perennial. When President Joseph A. Brandt went to Okla homa last fall from Princeton, where he directed the Princeton Tress, he attempted to sound out opinion on changing from "Boomer Sooner" (or "Boola Boola") to a new, yet unwritten tupe. The response was not favorable. Students began to sing "Boomer Sooner" in their rooming houses after dinner Instead of eating their desserts and drinking their coffee.
