H« mtn all fans to come oat and mo om workings of the draw ings and says ho will invito some of them to participate in drawing the daaaoles conuining the num bers from the jars to be set up tor each game. A * oach application was receiv ed they were processed into iota of SO and placed in n numbered file. Each applicant received a card acknowledging receipt of the order and that card gave a number which indicated the number of the folder containing the order plus another number which indicated Urn line on which the order was Ifted. For exampls: the number 77-16 meant that the order is in folder 77 and is entered on line 16 of the control form. There will he approximately ItO ■•where, or folders, to be drawn end the first numbers pulled from the “goldfiah bowls” wiU get the •eats nearest tbs fifty-yard line which are svsllah s. As each num- >>«ir is drawn It probably will mean that not over 100 tickets for that purtirnfar game are sold Each gasM will bs a separate draw. In OMo of the Tesas game it is al- wool ft •erutety that thoee 100 ttokatft are go M for —eh number ^^ftllr •very application calls for the allowable two tickets for that game. The drawing Saturday will be for applications fsom former stu dents, faculty and local fans who applied for coupon books. Un fortunate as it h, some former ■ta^aaOV will miss out since only 8600 seats for the Texas game are available for them and the approx imately 6000 applications call for almost U.000 tickets AH faculty coupou book orders will be filled with u possibility that all of the other local fans who applied will get theirs. There will be separate drawings for faculty and local coupon book •cut locations after the drawings for the ten games are drawn. M We feel that the moat equitable system of tickets has been worked out by C. D. Ownby, business man ager of athletics. It may* adt be absolutely perfect but we are sure t^at it is a great improvement W any system used In the past At least everyone who applied by the dead-line of August 9 will kavt ah equal chance to gut Mata and the same chaaM to get those good •eats," Carmichael expIdMiTT The United no,mm) miles street ear and percent Increaa States now of trolley ec bus routM. a ► over 11>44 two LEON B.
