DELEGATES UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA DELEGATES CROWING FOR A GREATER CAROLINA Vol. LII, No. 27 COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, MAY 4, 1962 For Fall Football Student S4 Changed A Student Senate voted Monday to change the USC student seating at Carolina Stadium next fall from the- west or press box side . to the opposite stands. The Senate passed the new seating resolution following a talk given by Mr. Roger White, ticket manager for the University. Mr. White attended the meeting with Coach Marvin Bass, and Mr. Frank Johnson, assistant athletic director. Mr. White said that because of the limited number of seats now afforded the student body, many students have to sit in the end zone, and that with the anticipated increase in enrollment this situa tion will grow worse The seats were originally pro vided on the west side of the stadium because there was less glare from the sun. Next year, the first two home games will be played at night and the last two games will be played in November. A greater number of seats will be reserved for the student body on the east side, and a fence will be placed between the Carolina cheering section and that of the competing school. Coach Bass said that this move will make it possible for the foot ball team and the alumni who will sit on the west side, to see and hear the cheering of the students. It is hoped that this move will im prove morale and school spirit. He added that banners and other decorations for the cheering section will be provided, as well Model Council Held Today Thirty-five students from South Carolina colleges will participate in the 1962 S. C. Model United Nations Security Council being held in the Russell House As sembly Room today.
