The flooring on which the seats will be
fastened will be of absolutely freproof ma

each morning the entire stand can be washed
out by stream from hose. Perfect cleans-i

tlonaI ventilation every riser between each
stage OF this flooring is composed of an open,
lattice girder, allowing perfectly free circu-
iauon OF air directly through the floor of the
