Others maY procure theirs during the rest of the week on a fir- t-comne, f ir st-Serve basis. Students desiring to get ticket assignments together, in pairs or blocks, may do so. Assignments will be the same for both the Clemson and Maryland games. Opposition Recorded Student council has gone on record as opposing the new stipu lation that discontinues the prac tice of per game distribution of ticket assignments. The resolu tion was adopted by unanimous decision of the group in regular meeting last Monday. Student Council asked that, if the ticket office cannot handle distribution of seat assignments for the Maryland game during the week preceding that game, the Council should assume that res ponsibility. Ticket Office Comments University ticket office advised student council that it is not equipped to handle two more dis tributions of student seat assign ments. According to a legal ruling by the board of trustees of the University, all assignments must be by Dick Anderson, executive secretary of the ticket office, who has been honded for this purpose. Anderson Comments When asked to commnent on the situatilon. Anderson said, I have tried to work with the students ani help them to) a ch ieve what *hey want in the way of football seating, but now I am disgusted with the whole matter. I have been told that I am responsible for the diStribution of football tic:els to Carolina students, and I murt do my job. It is not up to me to decide whether student cotuncil or any other group distri butes these ticketS. Student council asked for a football seating plan which would render the maximum nmber of date tickets for student., wishing to date off campus by permitting students dating within the student body to :o so without having to purchase date tickets, according to Student Body President David White. This plan also would permit groups to sit together at football va1eS and would retaill preferen tial seating for seniors, graduates anld law st udent s, the couilCi mna ilnt ain ed.I Specific Assignment Necessary Pr'esidlent of the University (Continued on page 8) .New freshman "Y" officer. are 'illiams, YWCA president;s Susan athy Pamchel, YWCA secretary; surer.
