annual event on the campus.
Here's how it works.
Each organized house
(whether Greek or independ
ent) and many of the campus
organizations have selected
an honorary producer who is
in charge of season ticket
sales for the University The
atre. The ticket sellers are al
lowed to keep the extra dol
lar (tickets are -normally five
dollars), pass it along to the
students as a saving for their
piggy banks or give it to the
organized house to build up
the coffers.
Incentive
Or, the house could vote to
let the honorary producer
keep the extra buck for his
efforts.
"This new system is just
an added incentive to bulge
ticket sales," Dallas Williams,
director of the University
Theatre noted.
And it seems to be working
well, according to one bouse
"producer" who has already
made ten sales.
The producers will be given
a banquet by the theatre after
the ticket campaign is over.
In addition, the sellers will be
given a gala formal opening
night at the first Howell
Theatre production, Merchant
of Venice, starting Oct. 22.
Honorary Title
The honorary theatre organ
ization, Masquers, is in
charge of the producer cam
paign. The two sellers (one a male,
the other from the distaff
side) who do the best overall
job will be named Honorary
Producers for the season and
will receive season passes to
the plays and opera. In addi
tion, their pictures as well as
their affiliation, will be print
ed in the theatre programs
for each show.
The campaign will be "on"
through this week.
Young GOP
A meeting of the Young
Republicans will be held
tonight at 7:30 in room 313
of the Union. Speakers will
