Football Tickets
Are Selling Fast I
According to A. E. (Pete) Jones,
in charge of season football ticket
sales, the applications for tickets
at this time are 30% higher than *
at the same time a year ago. In
addition, the coupon book sales
among the faculty are approxi- •*
mately equal now to the entire
season last year.
From all over the country have
come inquiries about and applica
tions for tickets. A number of re
quests have come from California,
a good many others from the Mid
west, and many from points in the
Southwest. ,
Several servicemen have made
applications. One lady in Dallas
has ordered a ticket for her hus
band who expects to be here in ♦
time for one game during the
football season.
With the opening of the sea- r
son still three weeks away, the
interest in tickets points to an
encouraging response from football
enthusiasts.
