Investigations by the Cambridge Fire Marshal's office have uncovered infringements of regulations in the Varsity Club, which was partially burned out Monday morning. The City will take no action, and the cause of the blaze remains officially undetermined.

The Band Room had been inspected by the Marshal only four days before the blaze. However, Manager George L. Kirklin '59 pointed out that the areas condemned by the Marshal were not near the starting point of the fire.

Plans for the reconstruction of the Varsity Club and the Band Room are being drafted, and work will commence in three weeks to renovate the antiquated structure completely. "Rebuilding will take about two or three months," George L. Kirklin '59, Manager of the Band, stated last night.

The Varsity Club, the Band, and the University will jointly pay for the renovation, which will include replastering, new flooring, and a sprinkler system. The layout of the structure will remain substantially unchanged.

Solicitation Will Cover Costs

In order to finance its share of the costs, the Band will request funds from all Band alumni. This drive, the first in five years since the "Dimes for the Drum" campaign, will emphasize the need for funds to cover the $10,500 loss.

The Band, it has been suggested, may solicit at football games. However, this proposal requires approval of the Corporation, and no action has yet been taken. Kirklin hopes to cover part of the loss at the annual Dartmouth Concert; $2000 will be required immediately to purchase essential music.

"Our greatest immediate task," Kirklin noted, "will be recopying individual parts for medleys." Some of the music will be replaced over a period of years through an increased budget.

To avoid the chance of any future fire, strict rules governing smoking have been instituted in the building.
