Bisbee daily review., 1912-01-28


 Within a month groundtwi be broken | at Yale for the largest set of perma- i nent stands and the most extensive | atbletic fields of any American uni ! verstty. The plant which the so- called Stadium committee has recon mended is practically a million dol lar affair How much of it can be Ouiit at the present time the com mittee will decide at meeting winch will be held within a fortnight, it is expected. Budding plans have been prepared, and the committee knows exactly what it wants. The finance committee is busy in perfecting al scheme by which the money can De raised.
 A new football stadium costing about Sl00, 900. baseball stadium es- t.mated at about s200000 in value, track stand costing about Sl0O,OO0 and a clubhouse estimated at about Sl0O.00O in cost, are regarded desira- ble by the committee, although one architect recommends combining the baseball and track staIids and ffelds into one plant. The committee has come 10 the decision. however, that the football stands cannot be com bined with either the baseball or the track plants The new land pur- chased for the fields and buildings has cost about $100.000, and the cost of making th> athletic fields will be abogt sl000.000 more.
 Plans for the construction of a
 
 reach d. the construction of the field will be begun as-sOon as weather VIII permit The committee expects 10 Lave the buildings and fields ready for the football campaign of 1913, although the early games of futu a football seasons will be played with the present wooden stands until they ecome insecure through age. | The exact method of financing the scheme is not settled. but the f. nance committee has received assur- ances that enough alumni are ready to advance sums of from Sl00 to $500 each 10 pay for the cost of the plant, taking in return only the privilege of
 number Of tickets to the important games of future football seasons. This assurance has set at rest all fear that the funds needed for the project could flot be raised.
 II seems to indicate that the day of more than single ticket of admis- sion 10 football games has also passed. The next Yale-Harvard foot | ball game will be played with the ! rresent wooden stands at Yale Field, and the Yale management has an nounced that on\ a single ticket would be allotted each alumnus, thus 1 largely barring ladies from the con l test. Although the proposed foot i ball stadium will seat between co., and 10000 peopT, the seats which will be reserved in futurt years for ! bondholders will preclude the possl- biIity of two or three pasteboards be- l ing allotted to eve1y graduate. | An innovation proposed for the ] season of 1913. when the new stands | are ready for occupancy, is a Yale ! Cornell game, the first since 1883. As the Yale Harvard game in lSl3 will be in Cambridge, Yale will be | glad to arrange one or two special features for the opening session in it's new stadium, and it is believed that a Yale-CornelI match will pack the stands as fully as any gSme that could be arranged Cornell is eager for a game. and in fact, challenged Yale to one for 1912. but the sched- ule was made up without the Itha- cans. because Yale believed that oth- CT engagements were more impera tive
 l Although Yale will stand for changes in the football rules during
 the comming session of the rules committee that will allow more ire ausnt scoring. Walter Camp, who will again represent Yale in the con ! ferences, will oppose any changes which tend to make the game nsre strenuous. No Yale players were ex-
 hausted by the ganSs during the past season. and the injuries consist
 ed of mere wrenches and a few dis locations. It is believed that the
