Georgia s most loyal football
fans have many varied opinions
as to the best way to get a seat
to see the games coming up
this Fall
Every Georgia student who
has strived for a good seat at
the game knows the agony of
two hours waiting in the hot
sun The Student Senate is
again studying the possibility of
forming some sort of reserve
seat arrangement for students,
but the results are not likely to
be seen during the 1968 season.
The Red and Black has taken
a student poll to get the atti
tude of the student body at
large about the subject.
In the* poll, many students ex
pressed a desire for some sort
of plan on a trial basis Others
felt the plan would be too diffi
cult to work out
A plan under consideration
would allow reserve seating on
a first come, first served basis
so that individuals, groups of
individuals o r organizations
could pick up tickets together
in order to get seats together
for the Saturday afternoon
games
Student coeds. Carol Hollger,
Mary Ann Nichols. U*igh Mann
and Annette Johnson all agreed
that the present system was
lacking and that the Student
Senate should attempt to work
out some plan to keep students
from having to wait v» long in
the hot sun for a decent seat.
Typical coi nents include
Yes. it sounds like a great
idea! "
it would be nice for groups
of people to be able to sit to
gether if they wanted to
I like it. I don’t know why
It just sounds like a good
idea
“I don’t like the arrange-
* ments now. with reserve seats
people who care could get good
seats without being penalized
Ed Shropshire said. "Yes.
seniors and graduates should
have reserve seats because aft
er four years you should be
able to come and relax It
would be kind of unrealistic for
the whole student body but
most people expect too much
from the University anyway
Senior Beachie Wray says.
’ Yes. at the University of Flor
ida. they have block seating or
ganizations and put them on a
rotating basis I understand it
works out quite well
Other students just did not
think a reserve seating plan
would work It would be too
much trouble or the students
wouldn't like it. Kathy Butler
came up with some very con
crete and helpful criticism
Terry Sellers
Terry Sellers, a standout defen
sive right halfback the past three
years, will be honored in his
hometown of Headland. Ala. to-
da>.
The da> has been proclaimed
“Terry Sellers Day” and is spon
sored by the Headland Athletic
Association.
when The Red and Black ques-
I tioned her
I just don't think it's a good
' idea We probably couldn't get
as many students in the sec
tions as we do now. because
more people crowd together on
one row than there are as
signed seats for Also instead of
just walking in and sitting down
you would have to look for your
seat which would take time.
The lines for tickets would be
murder, just like waiting for
Tech tickets sometimes
many hours
It is doubtful that any action
will be forthcoming soon from
the Senate unless students begin
contacting their representatives
and demanding some sort of
action

ry. is as follows:

ways a big clash when arch in
trastate rivals meet!
Single game ticket orders are
also being accepted tor all games
except Georgia Tech By con
tract. Georgia Tech gets 12,000
tickets to the game here, and the
anticipaUsl sale of season tickets
will exclude single game ticket
orders (or the- final home game
All other opposing teams re-
quae significantly smaller blocks
of tickets than Tech; therefore,
single game tickets can be sold
for these four home games
The Bulldogs also have a de
manding road schedule for the
upcoming season They meet
Tennessee (defending SEC cham

it is expected that most all of the
games will be near sell-outs. San-

people when crowded.

The University Basketball
schedule for 1968-69 has been
released by Athletic Director
Joel Eaves and head coach Ken
Rosemond It shows the Bull
dogs at home in 13 of 25 games.
The Bulldogs will face two op
ponents who did not appear on
the 1967-68 schedule: University
of the South I Sewanee i and Old
Dominion College I Norfolk
Va.i.
Georgia will also play in a
different Christmas holidays'
tournament this coming season.
The Bulldogs will compete in
the Gator Bowl tourney, instead
of the Triangle Classic at Ra
leigh which they won last De
cember.
The main feature of the
schedule is the rugged South
eastern Conference hume-and-
home campaign There will be
18 league games, nine at home
and nine on the road Arch ri
val Georgia Tech will be en
countered twice on a home-
and-home basis.
Two SEC encounters loom es
pecially big Kentucky, defend
ing SEC champion, invades
Athens February 17. while Pis
tol Pete Maravich and his LSU
mates will no doubt draw a
large crowd when they visit the
Bulldogs March 8.
Optimism is flowing for the
coming season Coach Ken Ro-
semond s 1367-68 Bulldogs com
piled a 17-8 record (11-7) in the
SEC (good enough for a fourth
place tie in the conference i for
Georgia's first winning basket
ball season since 1950-51. They
did it on a schedule judged the
eighth toughest in the United
States by basketball analyst.

NOTES FROM THE COACH
ES ALL AMERICA GAME IN
ATLANTA: Gary Beban is be
yond doubt one of the greatest
quaterbacks in the history of
college football. Despite what
has to be called a pour practice
week (only two spirals the en
tire week of practice). Beban
came through in his Heisman
trophy form to save the game
for the West. As for all the
' poor" passes, said Behan.
"Uiok. they all count the same.
I threw a lot of wobblers for
touchdowns at UCLA and they
all counted six points "
Though 30th in the draft with
'he Lis Angles Rams. Beban
has since been traded to the
Washington Redskins
While in D C he will get to
work under Sonny Jurgensen
and Otto Graham. All-Pro qua-

terbacks Maybe he'll keep get
ting the* six points but now with
a spiral
Loran Smith, who handled
publicity for the game, has to
be about the world's greatest
guy. A former
Red and Blaek Sports editor
himself. Smith was able to get
the R&R sports staff just about
anywhere and everywhere at
the game not to mention
his making it possible to meet
the greatest coach west of the
Mississippi. Bud Wilkinson.
Edgar (’handler, who needs
no introduction played his usual
better than average game. He
could have done a lot more for
the Fast squad if Coach John
Pont of Indiana had given him
something of a chance
The S—B Award to Harry
Gunner of Oregon State The
6'5 l i" 235 lb end was disgusted
with the people of Atlanta and
with tin* city. He used some
rather unkind and unprintable
words about the game in gener
al. (I didn't like him either.
Mayor Allen >
Larry Csonka. the game's
MVP from Syracuse, was defi
nitely the most deserving play
er as far as hustly and inspira
tion to fellow teammates The
guy played his heart out and
then really felt sad because he
1 couldn't do more. The 6'3" 235
lb fullback plans to play ball
with the Miami Dolphins.
I Dee Andros, head coach for
the West, was a real inspiring
guy The way the West came
out after halftime to come back
and win after his little talk
was like in a movie.
Kim King, from Georgia
Tech, played a rather good
game until he was knocked
nearly unconscious fumbling the
ball which set up a West touch
down. That's the old football
business.
New Falcons (and do they
ever need them! > in the game
were Rick Eber. Carlton Dab
ney (Maude Humphrey and John
