ASC demands more tickets
Detailed proposals for acquiring more student basketball tickets will be presented at the next All-Student Council (ASC) meeting March 4, said Tom Weinberg, Coffeyville senior.
A three-man committee, consisting of Weinberg, Bob Stoddard, Shawnee Mission junior and Frank Zilm, St. Louis junior, was formed at the ASC meeting last Tuesday night to investigate the problem.
"To see if we can get more tickets." Weinberg said, "we will have to go over the Athletic Seating Board budget to see how much money they have and how many extra tickets we can have from this budget."
Another problem the committee will review is finding a way students can attend a game not sold out. An example given by Weinberg was the Missouri game at which extra
seats were available at game time.
"One solution might be to announce at game time that certain number of tickets are available," Weinberg said. "At that time students could come down and purchase a ticket for 50 cents."
Weinberg said this would alleviate many problems. First, although here are 500 student tickets available, the gates close before the game starts. This way someone would be at the gate all the time for students to purchase tickets. Also, it would help fill the auditorium.
"There is no reason to have empty seats when students want to go to the games," Weinberg said. "An increase in student tickets may cause an increase in the price of season tickets, but it will all be decided after the budget is looked into carefully."
Housemothers 'nabbed'
The Lambda Chi Alphas "kidnapped" and held for ransom the housemothers of all the fraternity and sorority houses and most of the scholarship halls on campus Wednesday night.
the ransom money was given to the March of Dimes.
A trophy was awarded by Earl Chandler, president of the Lawrence National Bank and Trust Co., and chairman of the Lawrence Campaign for the March of Dimes, to Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority which

paid $16.70 for the return of their housemother, Mrs. Evelyn Jennings.
Lambda Chi vice-president Vic Harrison, Wichita sophomore, said "this year we tried to do something different than houses in the past. We tried to put incentive in by awarding the trophy to the group which brought in the most money. Maybe we'll start a tradition."
The Sigma Chis and the Phi Kappa Taus were prepared for the Lambda Chi's kidnapping. Harrison said the Sigma Chi's met them with cherry bombs and snow balls, and the Phi Tau's captured two Lambda Chi's and held them as hostages.
