In former years there has been some difficulty in the sale of seats for the Harvard and Brown games. In order to provide for a fair distribution of these seats the Council has drawn up a set of rules which the managemnent will use for the Williams, Harvard, and Brown games of this year. Alumni can secure seats for these games in the Dartmouth stands by applying to Wright and Ditson of Boston for the Harvard game, and to J. Frank Drake, Board of Trade, Springfield, Mass., for the Williams and Brown games. Those who prefer to buy seats at the local sale in Hanover must observe the rules of the sale, which follow. No order will be filled unless the purchase price is enclosed with the application.
The rules are as follows:
1. Men who have paid their football tax shall have precedence over those who have not paid this tax.
2. Written applications for the purchase of seats will be received by the Graduate Manager or the Football Manager until ten o'clock p. m. on the Saturday before the game, after which time public drawings will be made for the order of choice.
3. A maximum limit of six tickets will be set for each choice.
4. Cheering sections will be reserved at these games in the most favorable part of the stands. Only one seat in this section will be sold to an applicant.
5. All applications for tickets from non-residents of Hanover must be accompanied by remittance of the purchase price (Harvard game, $1.50; Brown game, $2.00).
