Improvements on the Stadium.

Work on the Stadium has progressed slowly during the summer and it will still be some time before the structure is entirely finished. The two towers at the north end, which were began last April, have been completed, and the provisional grading has been done under the seats and around the outside. In addition to retiring rooms, the towers contain large stairways designed to furnish a rapid means of egress from the seats in the north end.

Several experimental treatments have been tried upon the concrete of the outside walls in order to remove the marks of the board casing in which the concrete was originally hardened. As a result of these experiments a liquid treatment has been adopted which leaves the surface in nearly the same condition as that of the walls around the arena. There are several thousand square feet to be covered on the outside, but so far only the eastern tower has been finished.

Further improvements on the Stadium will be made slowly, as the policy of the Athletic Association is to refrain from increasing the debt already incurred on the structure.
