LOSS OF ARMY-NAVY GAME STIRS BUSINESS MEN Continued from 1'nKr One which Is attnehed hereto), whereby such ii stadium will ultimately become tho property of said University, nmplo pro vision having boon mado therein for per manently tnklng enro of such events ns tho Army and Navy game, world's cham pionship series, largo municipal events nnd pngennts, etc., ns well ns tho Uni versity's big athletic contests, under standing further thnt tho Chamber ot Commerce appreciates tho value to tho city as well as to tho University of such a stadium nnd approves of tho project, wo bellovo that body should tako further steps as may bo necessary to carry out tho plans to a successful conclusion." TP.USTEES ARE ENTHUSIASTIC. It was stntcd today that these trustees of tho University havo enthusiastically In dorsed tho plan: Dr. J. William White, chairman of tho University ot Pennsylva nia Committee on tho Army and Navy Football Game; Marshall Morgan, of tho United Gas and Improvement Company, and former Attorney General John C. Bell. In a report submitted today to tho Chamber ot Coflmcrce, Mr. Nltzscho out lines his plnn for tho proposed stadium group. Tho report follows: "Philadelphia needs a great stadium If sho expects to attract big athletic and out-of-door events and to keep paco with other largo American cities. Tale, Har vard and Princeton havo stadiums seating" from 45.000 to 70.000, nnd oven somo of tho Western high schools, bucIi as Ta coma and San Diego, havo stadiums seat ing from 20,000 to 30,000. "Tho Tolo Grounds In New York are said to seat 42,000, and there is a rumor that they aro about to build a stadium in New York seating more thnn doublo that number. MUST ACT AT ONCE. "Franklin Field's seating capacity Is 19,214, although, with tho tomporury scats, 32,000 havo been crowded Into It. Unless Philadelphia makes nn offort at once, sho cannot hopo to bid for such big open- air events is tho Olympics, national pa geants nnd tho Army nnd Nnvy game. Tho game has been becoming moro and more, a national event. "The President and hundreds of the most eminent men In public life attend annually; with tho proposed Increase in the army nnd nnvy tho gamo will soon attract 100,000. Philadelphia cannot nfford to lose these games. Being halt way be tween West Point and Annapolis Is a good reason why the gn ;o should be played In Philadelphia every year. "The great demand for tickets for the Inst Penn-Cornell game, tho supply of which was exhausted several days before the game, indicated thnt there Is no rea son why a Pennsylvania gamo with any of tho 'big four would not attract crowds of 00,000 or more, as the football game did at Yale last fall. "The samo Is true of the world series baseball games; In tho last six years only once Philadelphia was not repre sented In the world series. Almost a mil lion people attended these games and paid almost J2.00O.O0O for admission; had they had a stadium such as Is here proposed theso figures might have been trebled. Such a stadium would also attract other big events, such as the Olymplo games. national pageants, etc. even the Uni versity relay carnival would soon fill It." , Mr. Nltzsche deals with the matter of the stadium's site as follows: "The Bite suggested for tho proposed stadium Is the natural ravine and basin in Woodlands Cemetery, adjoining the University Botaplo Gardens, which at present Is separated from It by a blind nlley used as a city supply yard, al though it Is on the map as 'University avenue.' The accompanying plan gives a picture of how this piece of land, now useless and unoccupied, could be used to advantage. It would answer all pur poses of the kind for generations to come. ARGUMENT FOR SITE. "As will be seen, the plan provides for a large educational building, a parking place for automobiles an open theatro constructed near the site of the one pre pared for Greek plays last June, only having seats on the opposite slope, as Indicated on the plan; and lastly, a huge TREE & PLANT DISEASES CURED Scientifically treated by expert enced nurserymen.

Dormitories. stadium nt the southern end of the ravine, arranged so that It coutd ho utilized tho year around by converting tho outside upper parts Into dormitories. Tho ap proaches to these grounds could be trans formed Into shady nooks nnd walks so that tho present Botnnlcal Gardens would extend over tho cntlro tract. "As will bo seen by tho sketch, tho largest portion of tho stadium would bo on tho Woodlands grounds tho other on a triangular ploco of unused city property. This alto Is In many respects Ideal and would reclaim land which might other wise remain useless. "Any objections which might bo brought by tho lot owners of tho cemetery, bc eauso of Its proximity, would ho met by putting a concroto wall on that Bide ot tho stadium, which wall would soon bo overgrown with Ivy and lined with shrub bery nnd tall poplars. Tho facilities for emptying the stadium would bo unsur passed nnd tho open spneo on all sides would obvlato congestion. 100,000 SEATING CAPACITY. "Tho stadium would bo nbout 40 feet below tho surface nnd nbout BO feet nbove, tho audlonco entering the stndlum from tho ground level through numerous en trances, nnd going either up or down, nccordlng to tho location of their Bents. A wide walk or drive would encircle tho whole field, tho drlvo being covered by tho under part of tho section of tho stadium extending nbovo tho ground nnd tho outer walls, consisting ot n dignified ncrlea nf nrche3 Tho field would seat from 80,000 to 100,000, nnd would havo ample space for a qunrtor-inilo track, football field, baseball diamond, etc. "Tho proposed clovntcd lino from 30lh and Market will skirt tho southern boun dary of the stadium, also tho Pennsylva nia Railroad, nnd thcro la nmplo room for a union station. Tho northern end Is nccesslblo by tho surfaco and subway cars along Woodland avenue. Walnut, Chestnut and Market streets. Ono can reach tho City Hall, tho heart of Phila delphia, on many ot these lines In less than 15 minutes; and theso enrs connect with others going to tho remotest parts ot Philadelphia. Automobiles could reach tho stadium on good ronds from nil parts of tho city, nnd tho proposed Park Bou levard from Falrmount Park to Bartrnm Park would run close by. WOULD BEAUTIFY CEMETERY. "This slto Is moro desirable, ns the ravlno does not contain n grave. It would Improve what Is now a moro or less un sightly part of tho cemetery, some of It being swampy and other parts being used ns dumps. To moot any real objection of lot holders, tho money derived from tho salo of tho ravlno might bo devoted to a fund, the Incomo of which might bo used for beautifying tho cemetery. "Tho outer walls of the stadium could bo so constructed as to make a permanent source of Income. As, previously stated, from 40 to CO feet of this stndlum would extend nbovo tho ground. The under sldo of this might bo benutlllcd by building nn nrchwny with two stories of dormitories nbovo It. Tho brlclc work nnd architecture might bo mado to correspond with our present dormitory system. "This would nlso provide for nn outer drlvo and an Indoor track and comfort- ablo dormitory nccommodatlons for al most 1000 students. This feature In It- . l I self might bo mado to pay an Incomo of from J30.000 to JjO.OOO a year, which would be a fair pcrccntngo on the nmount Invested, although tho profits of two or three largo cvcntB might in themselves be a handsome dividend on tho invest ment." UP TO PENN TRUSTEES. S. R. Clark, secretary of tho Municipal Affairs nnd Convention Committee of, the Chamber of Commerce, said: "It Is now up to tho trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to npprove these plans, nnd when thnt Is dono tho Chamber of Commerco wilt try to make the Btadlum a reality. Wo should Btrlko now while tho Iron Is hot. Tho public Is aroused by tho loss of the Army and Navy 'game, and they will welcome n movement of this kind. A stadium such as is outlined by Mr. Nltzsche would place Philadelphia permanently on the map and would greatly uplift tho civic life of the city. "An awakened Interest In outdoor sports means a better and cleaner citizenship. If we glvo Phlladelphlans a place to wit ness some ot tho world's greatest athletic events, we will cut down the attendance at tho saloons and other objectionable resorts. This Is a movement which should receive tho enthusiastic Indorsement of every public-spirited man and woman."
