They have been on sale for the past week and a half and according to Darlene Gehrman, secretary of the stu dent body, who has had charge of the tickets, they have sold quite well. Student Council Meeting There was a proposed change in the eligibility committee at the student council meeting yes terday. The eligibility commit tee is composed of a group of students and teachers who de cide whether the nominees for a school office are eligible to run. However, in the past the com mittee had no rules of eligibility to refer to and the proposed change would draw up a given set of standards. This change is a welcome idea because it will relieve the committee of some of the responsibility they have had to assume and will give the rejected nominees a faint idea of the reason. j The committee in charge of posting a calendar of coming events in the main hall was also explained. Barbara Roskamn is in charge of this committee which will give the students an idea of what is eoinp to happen, i Dance After Game i Well, be seeing you at the game and don't forget the dance at the Masonic temple afterward.
