Fund-raiser daiice^ leaves mess in gym ByLORENEISLER StaffWrlter The chair of the physical education department sakl he is considering banning aU dances from the nuiin gym because it was left in poor condition following last week's "Dance for Diabetes." "We can't have dances in the building if this is the result," Dr. Sam Winningham said Wednesday, adding that he believes as a general policy that dances belong in the University Student Union. Winningham said there were broken chairs, empty whiskey bottles and half filled glasses of alcohol inskle many physical education classrooms and the gym, even though akx)hol was not permitted at the dance and the classrooms were not officially open for use by the group. The dance, sponsored by the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity, raised between S3,S(X) to $4,(X)0 for the Amer^an Diabetes Association. Approximately I SOO people at tended, Joe Silverman, dance organizer, said. "The question is whether there was proper supervision" for the dance, Winningham said, referring to the security which was the fraternity's responsibility. The fraternity used campus polwe and 10 ZBT members to supervise the event, Silverman said. He said he "got permission to use a couple of rooms Winningham didn't know about" from one of the buikiing supervisors. Any akx>hol on the premises belonged to the band and celebrities highlighted at the dance, he added. While Winningham said there were several empty whiskey bottles scattered in classrooms, Silverman said he had "very strong doubts there was afi abundance of whiskey bottles." / All of the alcohol was backstage(and the security people were aware of it, Silverman said. Campus Police Lt. Marc Hissong said "there was plenty of evidence of bottles in the parking area" Saturday morning, including whiskey and beer bottles. Silverman said the custodial staff hired to clean up after the event did not clean one of the classrooms, which he said might have been part of the problem. However, the gym was "spotless" after the dance, he said. Richard WiUiams, assistant dean of student ac tivities, said the fraternity had agreed to pay $ 150 for cleaning charges prior to the dance.The fraternity "ac tually made a good faith effort" to keep ak:ohol out of the dance, WiUiams said. No charges will be brought against ZBT because there were so many people present it would be difficult to place the blame for alcoholic beverages on the sponsors, he said.
