THERE are any number of foot ball

could have drawn 100000 to 100000
with enough parking space for the
human frame.
Here's an example: IF you haven't
got your reservation for the Mime

lis on October 80, you'd better make
it now" This tip Just came in from
Minneapolis.
"Notre Dame alone already has
asked for 10000 seats Therell be Is
special trains out of Indiana and as
many more from Chicago. We can
handle from $4,000 to $4,000 here
but there1l be 10000 looking for
seats. There's a chance this may be
the game of 1887 Bernie Blerman

The big drawing card in the United

will draw more money, once or twice
year. Boxing doesn't run 1-2-7 with
foot ball No other game does. Foot
ball usually is good for 300Oo,oo0
season. Big league base ball can shoot
at 100000, but the many minors
add a lot to this. For example, At

Foot ball has passed 100000 more

For big championships, crowds in

On the other hand, England and

Many admission prices over here are

FILM ADMISSION
PRICES ADVANCED
Many Theaters Now Charge
5 Cents More-VoIume
Well Maintained.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 23.-Motior
picture theater admission prices have
been gradually raised during the last
two months in a considerable number
of theaters all over the country, ac-
cording to the Standard Statistics Co
The increase has averaged five cents
in those houses which have advanced
rates. Taking into consideration the
larger number of theaters which have
made no change in scales, it appears
that the average admission price fol-
the country has advanced to only 25
cents, compared with an average OF
approximately % cents in 1886.
Because of rising production and ex-
hibiting costs, the movement to ad-
vance admission scales will probably
carry further, although a temporary
lull seems likely during the next few
weeks, in order to permit the public
to become accustomed to the higher
charges. Thus far, theater chains
which have initiated box Office price
increases do not report any recession in
attendance following the posting OF
advanced seat prices. although further
gains in attendance may have been
somewhat retarded.
Theater attendance has failed to
maintain the new high levels reached
over the Labor day week end. While
the slight recession experienced is a
normal development, motion picture
industry officials are somewhat dis
appointed, as the recent showing of a
number of outstanding feature pictures
was expected to stimulate box office
intake greatly. Instead, attendance is
now running only moderately above
1886 figures, although receipts, taking
into consideration an advance in ad-
mission prices. are we'll ahead of those
for the corresponding period year
earlier. Infantile paralysis scares in
Chicago and other centers, slightly
poorer than average weather condi-
tions, and special factors (such as the
American Legion convention in New
York City, have individually served as
minor adverse influences. The fact
that these developments will not re-
cur over the next two months may
permit further modest gain in at
tendance.

grains drifted lower today.
The sag in prices came after fairly
steady opening and despite brisk ad-
vance in wheat at Liverpool. The mar
ket was narrow with trading at a
snail's pace most of the day.
Wheat closed weak, AL cent be-

Adding Encouragement to grain
traders was a disappointing demand
for An1erican-grown wheat in foreign
markets, some wheat was worked, but
the quantity was small, especially so in
view of yesterdays late break in prices
on this side the Atlantic, and a re-
ported cheapening of ocean freight
rates.
Liverpool prices were more than 2
cents bushel higher at the close, the
English market refusing to follow Fri
days decline here. The boost was at
tributed to a reported breach in the
international on-intervention nego-
tiations. Reports of unfavorable
weather in the Argentine wheat belt
were also noted in Liverpool.
