I A FTER watching the scramble for world series seats and hear ing of the record demand for every game that teams like Army, Michi onn nnH Nfitre Dame play, one be gins to wonder how many over-eager fans are turned away in the course of a year. The waste in the matter of specta tors runs far into the millions. In fact, it will surpass many hundreds of millions, smce on GrantlindBlce certain big occa sions far more people are turned away than the number of those ad mitted. The Red Sox office in Boston told me that, with room enough, the Bos ton seat sale for the World Series would have passed the 500,000 mark. This means that about 80 per cent of the ticket applicants were turned away. Army feels confident that it could have played before more than 250, 000 at Ann Arbpr, if Michigan had a 250,000 stadium, and just as cer tain it could play before close to a million in the Notre Dame game. rnfnrinnaUIv irhan aorlipr stand* were built no one saw the possibili ties of any such public demand. Certainly New York didn't, where. there is no such bowl as so many other cities have. Los Angeles can handle 103,000 at her Municipal stadium, with Pasa dena only a few miles away, able to put away over 90,000. With Santa Anita and Hollywood set for rac ing, Los Angeles is well in front so far as accommodations for the human frame are concerned. Philadelphia and Chicago have 100,000 plants at the Sesquicenten nial stadium and Soldier field. New York's Big Parks But their ball parks are too mea ger, along with so many other cities. The Yankees have the only ball park that can seat 70,000 fans. Polo grounds and Briggs stadium are about on a par at 58,000. Outside of these places, few ball parks can seat more than 35,000 with any com fort. Public interest in sport, al most every variety of sport, has grown far beyond seating or even standing space. They can handle far bigger crowds in England and Scotland because hillsides often are used. In the matter of football or baseball, it is difficult to build sta diums that could handle more than 110,000 or possibly 125,000 spectators. When crowds reach or pass these marks, too many spectators are too far away from the scene of conflict or contest. But there is vast room (or improving conditions, where space too often is much too limited. The Michigan stadium at Ann Arbor leads all strictly college facilities with room for slightly over 86,000 spectators. With over 100,000 appli cations for the Army-Michigan game, yon can see bow inadequate this is. Just what will be done about the situation is a story for the future, with lack of space and also lack of building material. But many an owner or promoter has wasted many a sigh in thinking of all the lost gold from so many millions crowded out. ? ? ? Too Much Baseball There was a good deal of talk, during the recent series, about how baseball is extending its playing sea son deep into football's brief Aveeks. Then too, there's the matter of trav eling. We were wondering what would happen in the future when Los An geles or San Francisco had to face Boston or Brooklyn. A world series that rolls back and forth frbm ocean to ocean could be much worse than this shift from St. Louis to Boston and back. The Mississippi isn't nearly as far away from the Atlantic ocean as the Pacific ocean is. The main fact is that baseball is crowding much too far into the foot ball season. naturally, Dasehau magnates can't see it that way. They have failed to realize that football is now as much of a major sport as baseball ever was, or ever will be. If a series happens to run into a day or two of rain, those who follow both baseball and football see their first football game around midsea son. This doesn't happen to make any sense. Baseball gets its start back in February. It has at least a six months' span. Football only asks for two and a half months. ? ? ? Football Rankings The majority of football fans agree that Texas university belongs on top, or close to the top of the heap, as far as this season goes. Army and Notre Dame are ranked close alongside, with Michigan in fourth place. It remains to be seen what Michi "gan will do in its remaining games. Also more than a trifle of Army's future depends on Doc Blanchard's condition. Cut-Out Frame for A Set of Shelves SCREW SHELVE! Ano ?ox TOetTHER WITH metal ahslee SCALLOPEO^Xtf3 FRONT ON PLYWOOD WITH PATTERN THEN CUT OUT WITH A Mb SAM OR A COW PASS SAW I MPORTANT pieces of furniture 1 that give a room an air of dis tinction are much in demand and hard to come by. Yet this sketch proves that the thing can be done ?and with very little trouble and expense too. A simple set of shelves with a well-de signed cut-out frame always adds distinc tion to any room. Place these shelves on a table or a chest of drawers and you have a really important piece of furni ture that will go a long way toward giving the room a well-furnished appearance. ? * ? Pattern 264 gives complete directions for the shelves shown here and an actual size cutting guide for the frame which is designed in simple curves that may be cut dv hand or with a power saw.
