The Navy Athletic Association
already has graded and drained
the stadium site, and has 81
million in its treasury toward
construction. The Association
supports the vast Naval Acad-
Iemy sports program through
revenue from football games.

Congress had been asked for
funds to build an adequate sta
ldium to replace Thompson Sta
Idium. but the requests have been
turned down. He said sponsors

for any aid.
He said the Athletic Associa-
.tion hoped the stadium, to be
used for other sports as well as
football, could be opened by the
fall OF 1859 At present, when
Navy expects large crowds, home
games are played in Baltimore
Municipal Stadium, which is
rented.
The Association, he said.
