Concert tickets selling well, seats still left Plumb to talk on Churchill career
By 2 p.m. yesterday—the first day of ticket sales-$4 and $3.50 seats were sold-out for the Andy Williams homecoming concert Nov. 2, Jeff Rockwell, Wichita senior and SUA Special Events Chairman, said last night.
"We only had 7,000 $4 and $3.50 seats combined," Rock-well said. "There are still at least 7,000 $3 seats left."
There are still half the seats in the fieldhouse left, Katherine Giele, SUA activities adviser, said.
"People assume that when we say we're so'd out of $4 and $3.50 tickets, the seats we have left are bad," Rockwell said.
Many of the $3 seats in the second balcony are good theater seats. When the Temptations were here these were the higher priced tickets, he recalled.
Higher priced seats were sold.
out so fast because there were fewer of them, Rockwell said. "Andy Williams' 32-piece orchestra will take up floor space usually used for expensive seats."
"A lot of people are afraid to buy $3 tickets_because they were so unhappy with the sound
at the Belafonte concert," Rockwell said.
Belafonte brought his own sound equipment, he explained. "We're hiring a man out of Kansas City, and we shouldn't have any sound problems because he's done an Andy Williams concert before."
The career of Winston Churchill as writer and historian will be the subject of J. H. Plumb's talk for the Humanities series lecture at 8 p.m. Friday in Swarthout Recital Hall.
Plumb, a professor of modern English history, is vice-master of Christ's College, Cambridge, in England. He has written ten
books, is editor of "History of Human Society" and advisory editor of Horizon magazine.
Plumb will also be here Saturday to participate in the Midwest Conference on British Studies.
