These 9000 tickets cost less than $50 to print and when they slipped through the presses there was every expectation that they would bring is $36,000 to help balance the H. A. A. budget. Well, they will remain unsold, and today's 52d annual classic--I use the word advisedly--will be witnessed by less than the customary full house.

...Council also announced that its budget for this year amounted to $5256, a sum pledged and collected from the undergraduate body this September. This figure shows little depreciation over last year's total of $5461. The Council as yet has made no definite apportionment of the funds, pending a careful investigation of the organizations to which they have been accustomed to give money, because in past years no definite information has been obtained as to what has been done with the money...
