dio program immediately, but
those with little Navy experience

Men with former navy experi

VICE-PRESIDENT Jack Selzer
submitted an unofficial estimate
of a financial report of the Mili
tary ball. The report stated that
the Military department realized a
net profit of $383. Expenses in
cluded federal tax, $964; Coliseum
rental, $876; permanent decora
tions, $226, and invitations, $236.
Expenses were met from sale of
596 tickets at $3 to men in uni
form, 708 tickets at $4 to civilians
and 758 tickets at $.75 to spectat
ors. SELZER also asked that the
Council adopt a resolution that
budgets for all social functions for
which tickets are sold to persons
outside the membership of the or
ganization concerned be submitted
for council approval. The plan as
approved requires each organiza
tion to turn in an anticipated bud
get two weeks before tickets go
on sale. A second and complete
financial report must be submitted
30 days after the event.
The council also approved a
proposal by Bob Wallace to re
quest students who have classes
in Burnett hall to use the west

door. There is serious congestion
at this door, esnecially between 10

tion presents a serious fire hazard
and causes delay.

proved a request by the Mortar
Boards for a women's election in
the spring.
