Bierer and Nolan Browning, directors
of the burlesque.
The stolen manuscript was returned

vacation. Several pages had been tour
from the booklet, but these have been
Keen replaced and the burlesque skit

In order that more time can be given
to rehearsals, the date of the burlesque
has been changed from May 5 to May
12, Bierer said and the seat sale will
begin next week.
According to Harold Thomason, bus-
iness manager, seats for the burlesque
ill sell for one dollar and a special

gfads.
Thomason has sent to Kansas City for
costumes for two of the scenes and these

hack drops are being made for two of
the scenes and will be completed within
the next ten days.

Oklahoma sprung a surprise on Mis-
souri in the first game of the two game
series with the I igers at Columbia,
Wednesday, coming from behind in the
ninth inning and winning by a score of
12 to 10. Five tallies were made when
the Sooners coupled timely hits with
errors on the part of the Tigers.
Until the final frame the score stood
10 to 7 against the Owenites. Durkee
could not prank the Missourians as he
did the Jayhawkers last Thursday, the
Tigers getting to him for 13 safe hits.
Ficklin held the Sooners to nine, but
eight misplays his team made behind
him let in the winning runs.

man of the council finance committee.;
While definite decision was made that
the present price of the ticket would
have to be raised to $11, the exact form
and manner of issuance is to be left
to the student body by means of a
referendum ballot in the spring elec-i
tions.
The suggested ballot, as prepared by
a special committee composed of Gene
Weirich, Van Edmondson, Jerome Sul-
livan, Fred Broach and Raymond
Meade, embodies two propositions, for
one of which the voter is supposed to
indicate his preference.
The first plan provides a blanket as-
sessment to be paid by each student as
he enrolls. The sccond provides an
optinoal ticket as at present but at an
advanced price The first plan includes
the Sooner yearbook; the second does
not.
Under the blanket assessment plan,
students will carry a book of white
tickets good for all admissions and a
Sooner yearbook. Faculty and towns-
people will have the privilege of pur-
chasing, if they wish, a book of general
admission tickets for $11, the color of
ilie tickets to be red.
The second plan is the same as that
of this year, except that it is recom-
mended that in case of the adoption of
this plan, that all persons not regularly
enrolled as students will be privileged
to buy a different colored book of tick-
ets at a greater price than is paid by
students. j
The committee recommended the
number of entertainments not accept-
I ing student tickets for admission be
materially reduced thereby facilitating!
the presentation of more ticket affairs.
I Recommendation was also made that
the president of the university and the
dean of the school of fine arts be re-
quested to limit the use of places of
assembly on the campus to organiza-
tions, who, especially if charging admis-
sion, have itained the approval of the
necessity of the increased ticket price.
Figures will be compiled showing ex-
penses of student activities and com-
parisons of costs of ticket- and non-
ticket holders. Further information
data will appear in the Oklahoma Daily.
