The first concerts affected by the major policy change will be the Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson performance in the fieldhouse on Feb. 7 and the Muddy Waters concert in the UC Ballroom on Feb. 13. For these and other future concerts, sufficient doors in the the fieldhouse or ballroom will open promptly one hour before showtime. Extra security officers and ushers will be hired for all future engagements. UM officials said the policy was adopted after a review of concert activities on the campus during the 1970s and in light of the recent tragedy in Cincinnati in which 11 young people lost their lives at a concert. The new policy was announced by Gary Hughes, manager, Adams Fieldhouse; Ray Chapman, director, UC; Ken Willett, chief, Campus Security/Safety and Gary Bogue, manager, Programming Office. ###.
