nights. They also will be used Friday
nights far football and seftball tour-
naments. Luttrell will be responsible for
making sure the lights are turned on
and off. Certain guidelines and
regulations about using the lights will
be set up by Dr. Curtis Dkkson
chairman of the health physical
education and recreation department
said Luttrell.
Fry said the university will be
responsible for maintaining the lights
and paying the electrical bill. He said
the cost of using the lights would be
approximately $15-$29 per night.
The lighting system for the in-
tramural field is "awfully expensive"
and "not very coat effective" because
of the small amount of time the tight
will be used each week Fry said. The
project is what the students wanted

said.
Pitman said Senate members have
expressed Interest in helping with the
SA committee but "anyone who Is
willing to help we can sure use them."
Students on the committee would

how many students the ordinance
would affect he said. Students who
