G. Rollie White Coliseum will be
the site of a surfing safari on Sep
tember 30 when the Beach Boys
cruise in for a concert.
Tickets go on sale today at Rudder
Tower. Prices are $8.50, $9.25 and
$9.75. The lines were long by Sun
day, but 5,600 general admission
seats are available.
The Beach Boys, one of the few
American groups that surfed safely
through the tidal wave of British tal
ent that invaded the U.S. in the
mid-sixties, are the first of several
big groups that Town Hall has
signed to perform for this semester s
concert repertoire at Texas A&M
University.
Mel Tillis will appear in concert
on Oct. 12 and Pablo Cruise is
scheduled for an Oct. 20 concert
date. Town Hall has also booked
four Broadway shows to perform at
G. Rollie White sometime during
the semester.
A campus-wide survey last spring
indicated that students would be
willing to pay more for concert tick
ets in order to see bigger perfor
mers. This and the student senate’s
decision last semester to cut Town
Hall’s budget by $20,500 have
brought about a change in the
method of selling tickets for these
events.
In the past, students could buy
season tickets which would enable
them to attend every concert that
semester for a set price. This left
Town Hall in an inflexible position
when it came to contract negotia
tions with performers.
Michelle Scudder, chairman of
Town Hall, said this year option
passes were sold for $10 apiece. An
option pass, she said, enables the
student to purchase his tickets the
week before tickets went on sale to
the rest of the school.
She said the option pass has
enabled Town Hall to get bigger and
better performers for this semester’s
program.
Town Hall sold 1,300 option
passes in August, she said. They are
no longer on sale.
“The Beach Boys concert is the
biggest event ever put on by Town
Hall,” Scudder said. “With this new
ticket selling method we hope to get
some other big performers.”
Scudder said the Beach Boys
scored very high in last semester’s
survey.
The ticket line for their started
forming Friday. Mark Churilla, a
sophomore wildlife and fisheries
sciences major, was the first in line
at 11 a. m.
Churilla has designated himself
the official roll-caller for other stu
dents who have decided to camp out
for tickets.
“Every three hours we call roll,”
he said. “If someone hasn’t shown
up, we cross him off the list and
everyone moves up a notch.”
Churilla has been the roll caller
for the last four concerts. He says
he’s trying to start another Aggie
tradition.
This time, Churilla brought his
stereo and has been playing Beach
Boys music throughout the
weekend.

There is an answer to the parking
problems on the Texas A&M Uni
versity campus this fall: car pooling.
The Off-Campus Center of the
Department of Student Affairs is in
itiating a Car Pool Referral Service
to all off-campus students.
This service will not only save gas
and wear and tear on automobiles,
but time spent hunting parking
spaces as well.
To register for car pooling, stu
dents may file their name, address,
class schedule, and whether they

tionist’s desk at the Off-Campus
Center. Cards will then be filed for
student reference.
Students may choose their own
car pool according to their time
schedule and area in which they
live.
“As soon as we have more stu
dents registered, we ll have a color
coded map and file box. The differ
ent colors will represent the differ
ent zones,” said Dena Todd, Off-
Campus adviser.
Special car pool parking stickers
are available at the University
Police Station for $36 and will be
valid until August, 1980. This set
amount will be divided by each
member of the car pool, and in turn
each car will receive a separate blue
and white parking sticker.
In addition to the parking per
mits, one registration card will also
be issued to the group. This card is
to be displayed on the dashboard of
the car driven to school. Any vehi
cles with car pool stickers which fail
to display the card when they are
parked on campus will be ticketed.
Underclassmen who have pooled
together with upperclassmen may
park in the blue-coded lots,
provided they have the appropriate
parking sticker and card.
Persons interested in car pooling
will need to register in the Off
Campus Center, located in the
Puryear Lounge across from the
YMCA Building, or call 845-1741.
