DRAINY a For Stadium Parking Is Re-arranged Sumwalt Solves Stadium ParkWg Problem; Oal May Leave Any Time ; Professor Robert L. Sumwalt, along with Tom Revelise, a student in the ' school of pngineering, has made a study' of the traffic situation at the stadium, and has formulated a plan by which cars will be able to enter or leave at any time without con. gestion. The plan calls for two roadways, twenty-five feet wide, completely around the stadium with division lines between the parking lanes. Automo. biles will be parked in these lanes. at a thirty degree angle from the ver ticle, and will be separated by white lines allowing a space of nine feet, 4+Y inches between each car. At no place will any car be parked nearer than eighteen feet from the stadium proper.. This arrangement has been made to take care of about 1,200 cars. A pro vision has been made whereby any au tomobiles in excess of this number can be parked in the field across the race track. The plan has been submitted to - W. H. Harth, and has met with his approval. It is hoped by those in charge that this lay-out will be come pleted in time for its use the first game of next year. - u. a. 0.
