Coast Fans to See Four Fights

Clabby and Logan Will Battle For Middleweight HonOrs
For the First Show-Murphy Gets a Chance at

Many an imposing program has

As to what will hinge upon the

over Ad Wolgast and, while he had the
somewhat UNIQUE distinction of gaining
a championship through a blow that
landed on himself instead Of on the
other fellow. he has every right to
sign himself champion and assume a

NOT ENOUGH SEATS
FOR FOOTBALL BUGS
Varsity Stadiurns Inadequate for I'm
mense Crowds That Witness Cham
piOEship Contests.

New York, Nov. 22-The enormous
demand for seats at the big inter
varsity football games in all parts Of
the country this autumn presents
new problems for the undergraduate
and graduate managers which they
are having great difficulty in solving.
No college stadium has yet been built
that afforded ample seating accommo-'
datiOns for the most important game
Of the schedule. It is always neces-
sary to curtail the allotment of coU-
pons, and in many cases to return
hundreds of applications because OF
the impossibility Of seating the thou
sands who are willing to pay from
50 to So for tickets and spend from
SIS to $50 additional for transporta-
ton and hotel accommodations pre-
yiOus to the game
In no case has the increased seat
ing capacity OF new stadiums kept
pace with the interest in football and
the demand for tickets. The task Of
handling the applications Outgrew the
undergraduate football manager years
ago and at present a corps Of stem
ographers and a large clerical force
is necessary to open, file and reply
to these requests for seats. This sit
uation applies. of course. only to the
most Important and closing games OF
