Concert crowd surplus disconcerts organizers
By MIKE MEESKE
Reporter
One no one seems to know how it happened, but about 200 people sat or stood in the aisles at the performance of the London Symphony Orchestra Wednesday night at Hoch Auditorium.
"I'd like to know how it happened, too." Thomas Gorton, dean of the school of fine arts.
Gorton said he gave up his seat and had to stand in the aisle.
Preston Sisk, manager of the Murphy Hall box office, said no extra tickets were sold to the concert. However, Gordon said six more tickets than the house limit of 3,719 were given. He said 2,400 general admission tickets were sold and 1,325 reserved tickets were sold.
But there were still about 200 extra people unaccounted for.
Gorton said Hoch was a bery difficult place to control, but there were police security at the concert. He said it was very easy to let someone in.
The general admission tickets were white, Gorton said, so it was possible that some of the tickets may have been counted. But the managers have come through the side doors, he said.
Rita Hawley, usher at the concert, said that wide doors were open but she didn't see them. "You are lucky," she said.
Hawley said all the general admission seats were filled an hour before the concert.
The ushers were instructed, Hawley said, to stay in their places until after the first taker, and Gordon said there were ticket takers. "I was the only number," Sisk said it was possible for anyone

Gorton said the only thing he could think of would be to have more security guards on the wall.

Hawley said she saw one man who ordered another person not to save any seats. She gave her seat to him, she said, to avoid trouble.

One couple, she said, said in the middle of the main aisle and didn't move.
"I just don't know how the extra people got in," Gorton said.
Neither Sisk nor Gorton could offer support for preventing over-crowding from happenings.

Sisk said. "It was the biggest crowd that I've ever seen come to the box office."
The manner of reckoning absences is members of the Student senate will be changed if the Senators adopt a bill forwarded by the Committee.
Letters requesting names of committee members have been sent to all departments in an attempt to determine which departments need help in acquiring student members for the 20 semester vacation, said Cindi Buaxton, chairman of the Senate committee.
Roll calls are taken at the beginning and end of each senate meeting. Missing either of these roll calls counts as one error in the vote.

Two unexcused or four excused absences result in suspension. The bill would make missing one roll call only half an absence, but the bill does not allow a missed roll call.
Senate may loosen rules on absences

SWEDISH IVY
plectranthus
australis
Your lvy will look beautiful if you display it in a hanging pot or basket, and will benefit from the free air circulation. Just pinch on the longest stems to encourage new growth—this is important or an older plant may become "leggy" and brittle, and may lost some of its leaves. When you cut back the longer stems, you may want to re-root the cuttings to make a new plant, or you could plant them around the mother plant for a fuller effect.
Feed from spring to fall with houseplant fertilizer according to directions, but try using at half strength twice as often.
SWEDISH IVY, which is sometimes called "Creeping Charlie", is a native of Australia, but has an inter-irritant—it was first grown as a houseplant in Sweden, and some varieties flourish in the Pacific Islands and Natal. It is a fast growing trailing plant with waxy scalloped leaves. Normal room temperatures are appropriate light indirect light, as too much direct sun will fade the leaves.
Mist your plant occasionally, and keep the soil barely moist.
Provide good drainage, as the roots of the ivy need breathing space. Every month or so add a drop of biodegradable liquid soap to your spray water to discourage pests.
