OF -..CONTINUE Tt> SUftV/i>£r Editorials IN A TGCV\NOCft.ATVC OH^y &y MEANS OF PouHMiC/Vu An Error Prone Concert \ It has been seven months to the day since the Pure 4' Prairie League and Pousette-Dart Band concert, yet, certain questions about its management remain today and, most likely, will remain for a long time. One thing is certain; the concert was plagued by confusion, the story which is pieced together in today's Tripod shows that the involved parties were unsure about just who was responsible for what. Who was responsible for the tickets and money and how these Items were handled are questions that remain unanswered. £ AMY The delicate question of whether or not all the money collected for tickets can be accounted for appears unanswerable. No accurate records of tickets sold or money taken in exist. Workers were paid in cash and some money was used for other expenses than those directly related to the concert. In fact, there is disagreement between some of the parties involved in theexecution of the concert about who was responsible for tickets and money. Let this not be a totafty negative experience. It has not shown positively that events of this magnitude can not be undertaken at Trinity. What it shows, at the least, is a need for far greater planning and organization. It is when things are most expected to simply plan themselves that they least often do. There is more to a concert than the music. Success and failure are measured by more than the tunes. And in the case of this concert, consideration of both planning and execution must lead to the conclusion that it was a failure. Commentary Vandals and Thieves Vandals have no place at Trinity.
