Undergraduates will have to go to the Athletic Association offices to get into home basketball games and swimming meets this year.

No final system has been worked out, but, unlike junior varsity and freshman football, where presentation of a bursar's card was enough for admittance, students will have to show their bursar's cards at the H.A.A. office and get their ticket there.

The H.A.A. and the Boston Garden are still trying to work out a system whereby undergraduates can receive some kind of price benefit on home varsity hockey games.

Plans are still tentative, but it is believed that a solution similar to last years, with students receiving half-price tickets, will be reached. During the 1952-53 season all men with athletic coupon books were given half-price tickets for the Boston Arena. If the Garden and the H.A.A. reach terms, a bursar's card will be worth one-half the price of a seat.

According to an official there is "extremely little" chance of Harvard students getting one free hockey ticket apiece, as they did for the home football games.

"First Come, First Served"

An H.A.A. official said last night that there will be no specific days on which certain classes can buy basketball and swimming tickets. But rather that there will just be a general sale. "Past experience has shown us that you can go pretty much on a first come, first served basis," he said.

Undergraduate tickets to these events will be for unmarked seats. All other winter sports are open free to the students and public.

This may mean that students will have to wait until next fall for the instigation of a no-line tickets-by-mail system. The demand to see spring sports probably will not cause a distribution problem as great as this winter's.
