Walter said that there were duplicate ideas, so the booths were assigned on a first come first serve basis. There will he a variety of booths: jails to throw ene mies in, booths to kiss in and booths to get massages in, Walter said. But, there also will be other activities. A local band will play 45- minute sets in the main lounge and between sets, the Miss Texas A&M beauty contestants will perform. Rumours will be serving re freshments during the night. Admission will be 50 cents, Walters said, and separate tickets must be pur chased at 10'cents apiece to participate in the different games that the booths offer. When the All Night Fair is over, each booth turns in the tickets they collected to the All Night Fair Committee. The committee will give an undetermined amount of money to each club or orga nization, depending on how many tickets their booth col lected. Dorm opens weight room by Kathy Wiesepape Battalion Reporter Long lines for the weight machines at DeWare Field House shouldn’t stop Hart Hall residents from staying in shape. Last Sunday, Hart Hall opened its own weight room in the base ment of the dormitory. “We have the best facility on campus besides the weight rooms in Deware and the athle tic facilities,” said David Haw kins, president of the Hart Hall Weightlifting Club. Planning for the weight room started last October. After the project was approved by the Central Area Office, Hawkins said, he went to Texas A&M weightlifting instructor Emil Mamaliga for advice. Mamaliga is the author of the textbook for weight training classes at Texas A&M. Mamaliga showed him how to use a floor plan of the basement to set up stations for different activities and also recommended amounts of weights that would be needed at each station, Haw kins said. David Corry, secretary of the weightlifting club, said most of the weights were loaned to them by Hart Hall residents. Also, the dorm council donated $425 to the project, which Hawkins said the weight club members used to buy cleaning supplies and an additional 400 pounds of weights. Mark Bauma, one of the weight club members, built two benches and a sit up board for the weight room. Hawkins said the equipment in the room is arranged in sta tions, as Mamaliga advised. Pages frqm the weightlifting textbook, illustrating different exercises and recommending weight amounts, are posted at each station. Corry and Hawkins said they received an overwhelming re sponse to a petition they circu lated through the dormitory to determine the level of interest in the project. However, the turn out so far has not been as good as they expected, Hawkins said. Most residents just aren’t aware that the new weight room is open. Only Hart Hall residents with paid activity fees can use the weight room, but Corry said that they might consider opening the facility to other students if it is not used more often. brmer A&M dean ill speak at Muster Haskell M.
