problem it faces is limitation of
admittance. The city fathers want
to set the number of persons ad -
mitted to two hundred and twenty-
five persons allowing 15 square
feet per person. Now if they are
able to accomplish this, the quali
ty of bands will suffer, many
persons will be forced to find
entertainment elsewhere, and to
have good entertainment prices.
prices must rise. These factors
will eventually lead to the fold
ing of the Cellar which in my
opinion would be a great loss
to us from many view points. The
first factor to be considered is
that the Cellar serves a purpose
in the community. It keeps stu
dents off the street by giving them
a place to go, to be with other
students their age who share some
of the same Interee
of the same interests, to hear
good bands, to meet people, and it
they so desire, to drink beer. No
liquor is allowed and the sale of
beer is controlled and person who
might overly indulge are res
tricted. It is no secret that a col
lege student is going to drink so
why not provide a place where
it is supervised? A better class
of people and more people seem
to attend the Cellar than most
similar places in Charlotte. The
Cellar serves its most useful pur
pose by providing the college age
person with a respectable place
to go which without it they would
seek avenues of entertainment at
drive-in movies, house parties,
etc. In this respect it eliminates
problems for the community; how
to enforce. Most of you know
through your visits to the Cellar
and other places that when a big
name and/or a popular area band
appears the crowd is sometimes
appalling (Sic) That the city fath
ers want to limit admittance is
valid and a need in many res
pects but it is purely ridiculous
to limit it so severely. They will
surely defeat their purpose. Also
if they are doing this to clubs why
not apply it to theaters, dinner
theaters, restaurants and places
such as Park Center. I wish to
appeal to you the students of
UNC-C. Let’s not have another
funeral such as that of the Pad.
Let’s accept limitation but fight
against so severe limitation and
keep places such as the Cellar
open for our entertainment and
enjoyment as well as serving a
purpose in the community. For
with limitation the Cellar
and other entertainment will fold.

ever, this does not indicate it
has no trouble there, but it is
controlled and eliminated. Stu
dents from this area who attend
UNC-C, Davidson, Wingate, Gas
ton, Belmont Abbey, Queens,
Kings, Gardner-Webb, and other
colleges are provided with a good
place of entertainment as well

who come through-out the holidays
when they are home.
The city-fathers seem to think
that by limiting the number of per
sons admitted to certain clubs
of entertainment in Charlotte they
will somewhat eliminate Char
lotte’s youth problem but in cer
tain respects they are defeating
their purpose. Also most of these
places meet the requirements of
the city as to exits and fire pre
ventive measures. For example
die Cellar was Inspected just last
month and met all rec^irements.
The number of exits meets all
city codes and the ceiling is fire
proof. Also from an economic
point of view, one club in opera-
ion for twenty-two months paid
511,000 in state taxes. (Example
(Area schools could surely use this
ax dollar to good advantage).
