Sit on Councils The basic structure of AIM starts in the men's dormitories. Representatives are elected in each area, with the larger dormi tories being divided into sub units. The spokesmen sit on Pol lock, Nittany, and West Halls Councils, in addition to the Town Independent Men. In turn, the councils send representatives to the AIM Board of Governors, whose president sits on All-Uni versity Cabinet.

The machines, in case you have not put your dime in and gotten a soft drink out yet, have replaced the counter and waitresses. The counter has been parti tioned off and in front of the partition has been placed a string of automatic vending machines, one for soft drinks, cookies, pas tries, milk, and sandwiches. Fruit, hot chocolate, coffee, and change machines are expected to be add ed soon. 131=3=1 Mildred A. Baker, director of food service, said the change was necessary because "business did not cover the cost of operation." Many of the details of the op eration are still to be worked out by the company owning the ma chines. The company doesn't know at present whether a person with change will have to be on duty at all times or whether the change machine will be sufficient. a spokesman said. The machines, which cost more than $12,000, are operated under a contract with the University. The spokesman for the company said food service cannot possibly lose money under the contract. Company Owns Machines Although the company owns and operates the machines, food service will provide sandwiches, milk, ice cream, and other items for the self-service operation. One student told us he had to buy a coke to get change to buy some ice cream.

The group then directs and regulates coed activities on campus, and through the presi dent, has a voice in All-Univer sity affairs on Cabinet. AA Adopts Former Free Seating Plan The Athletic Association has reverted to its old Beaver Field seating plan, allowing students to sit in any searin any section reserved for their class. However, the system is only on a trial basis, meaning that if students misuse the seating plan, they may have to sit in a specific seat in a specific row in a specific section, according to Edward M. Czekaj. AA assistant business manager. Czekaj explained that it will not be difficult to change over to this rigid seating plan if the students' conduct shows it to be necessary. Students will be given Tickets for the University of Pennsylvania-Penn State game go on sale to students only Tuesday morning at the ticket booth on the third floor of rec reation hall. The game, which will be played Sept. 29 at Philadelphia. is the opening game of the sea son. The ticket booth will be open weekdays from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 4:30 p.m.. and Saturdays. from 8 a.m. to noon. The price of the tickets is $4. There is a limit of six tickets for each student. reserved seat tickets which have a specific seat printed on them. Tickets Are Like Last Year's The tickets are similar to the ones used last year. In stressing the conduct of the students, Czekaj specifically em phasized that "section hopping" will not be allowed. By this, he mean that no students will be allowed to sit in sections . other than those assigned to their class. Seats in any of the sections re served for the classes will be on a first come-first serve basis. This means that although a senior may have a 50-yard-line seat printed on his ticket, if some other senior arrives at the stadium before he does, his ticket does not entitle him to that seat. Last summer the AA decided to use the rigid reserve seat system. This met with student disappro val. and a compromise plan was worked out. This compromise plan' forced a student to sit in the section printed on his ticket but not the specific seat in that 'section. Plan Is Not Rigid The plan for this year, in es sence, ix the one used before the rigid reserve seat system was planned by the AA. Seniors may sit in sections EK. EJ, EH, and EG, which extend from the goal line to the 50-yard line in the east stands; juniors may sit in sections NK, NL, and NM, which are situated in the end zone; sophomores, sections NB, NC, ND. NE. end zone: and freshmen, NF, NG, NH, and NJ, end zone. ' UBA Open - (Continued from page one) for them. The LTBA then arranges the books by topics on tables.
