There Is need OF better facilities
here for indoor events. AT present
Richmond cannot stage a real inter
| collegiate indoor meet for want n, i,
building large enough to comfortably
take care of the spectators and nj
the same time provide sufficient space
ior the runners. Yet to provide a
place for a meet will not prove an
expensive proposition. The How
Tiers Armory. with its wonderful
rInihs hall, Is large enough for all
purposes and could be utilized by the
construction OF a sectional floor that
could be unbolted and stacked nm
when not needed. The building as n
