A severable ticket-type entry item for admission to an event attended by a plurality of people has a magnetic code indication. A detector detects the magnetic code indication of the entry item and produces an input electrical signal varying in accordance with the magnetic code indication. An identifying device has a variable predetermined code electric signal recorded therein. The identifying device is electrically connected to the detecting device and compares the input and code signals and produces an acceptance signal when the signals are the same and a rejection signal when the signals are different. A severing device electrically connected to the identifying device severs the entry item to provide a stub part for the holder thereof and a record part for recorded entry data on the entry item when the identifying device produces an acceptance signal. A rejecting device electrically connected to the identifying device and to the severing device prevents severance of the entry item and returns the entire entry item when the identifying device produces a rejection signal.

A card puncher for punching as a yardstick of use a card for getting coupon tickets on and used as tickets on omibuses and electric trains, and a method of controlling the card puncher. Data on a target quantity of conveyance of the card correponding to a position where the card is punched is stored in memory. A card conveyer is driven to convey the card by a quantity corresponding to data on the target quantity of conveyance stored in the memeory. A quantity of coast of the card after the drive of the card conveyer is teminated is measured. If the sum of the target quantity of conveyance and the measured quantity of coast of the card is within a predetermined allowable limit, the card is punched. If otherwise, data on the target quantity of conveyance in the memory is corrected such that the sum falls within the predetermined allowable limit, the card is returned to a position where the punching starts and the punching operation is retried.
