CITIZENS GIVE
MONEY TO BUILD
ATHLETIC FIELD
"Old Woman's Gulch" Furnishes
Natural Site on Which to
Construct Tiers
2,000 Regular Troops to Take
Part in Carnival of Sports
on New Grounds
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
TACOMA, July 5. — The concrete sta
dium which will shortly be dedicated at
Tacoma is a monument to the enter
prise of citizens of that place who
backed up the ideas of the local board
of education with {100.000.
The stadium is an immense horse
shoe shaped excavation, built in a
grulch which sloped away directly be
neath the Taeoma high school building.
The open end of the horseshoe faces
the bay. affording: a splendid view of
water and mountains. The' completed
p!ans call for a concrete, wall closing
.in this open end.
SKATS 20,030 PEKSOXS
.; The horseshoe is 400 feet long. At
its narrowest point it is. 250 feet wide,
and between the widest points 390
feet. Surrounding this horseshoe shaped i
licld, which is built on , the floor of
. the gully, rise 31 tiers of concrete
. seats, representing a total length of
6.4^' miles of concrete steps with seat-
Ing capacity for 26.000 people.
Th«? seats are concrete and steel con
struction and represent • 4,500 cubic
yards of ceaienL Iv building- the steps
148 tons of structural steel was used.
In order to excavate room for the
stadium ISO.OOO cubic yards of . earth
v.ere removed from the sides of the
SIGGESTED A PLAYFIELD
The first suggestion for a \u25a0 stadium
vvas made to the school board by
Frederick Heath, the school architect,
In IKO6. At that time Heath went be
tore the board with the suggestion
that the gulch, known as Old Woman's
gulch, be cleared and.lilled sufficiently
to make a playground and athletic
Held. Heath thought that a few
wooden benches might be built around
the sides of the field for the accommo
dation of spectators. The school boarj
approved of the idea, but thought that
concrete seats might be. substituted,
giving the playfield a more perma
nent character. From this idea the
plan for a stadium grew and expanded.
HAD .MODEST BEGIXAIXG'
When work was first begun the
school board allowed the services of
four men. to do the grading and clear
.ing, and the Taeoma city council al
lowed the use of a small amount of
water for sluicing. Kor several months
work continued at this rate, and then
• the firm of Fitch; Talyor &\u25a0 Ander
son proposed a sHnple plan of financing
the undertaking: by having the high
school students sell 6.000 fire year sea
son admission tickets at a cost of $10
apiece. This was the plan flnally
adopted, and the money realized from
the sale of these tickets, with individ
ual donations, paid for the building
of th*» stadium. Private corporations
of Tacoma were prominent donors of
funds. The high school athletic asso
ciation contributed $2,000, realized from
the returns from athletic contests. The
result of this donation by the athletic
association has furnished the high
school with an unexcelled athletic field,
which has a running track 16 feet wide
and one-fifth of a mile long,
..MILITARY TOIIRXASIEXT.
DeJication exercises ara now being
planned for the stadium. An histor
\u25a0 ical pageant will be held, in which the
vai ious phases of the history of Pierce
county will be depicted- A movement
is also on foot to secure the next na
tional Olympic games at Tacoma, the
• people of Tacoma- believing, they have
one of the best arenas in America for
the purpose. _'_
No proposed athletic carnival will
to fully demonstrate the possibilities
of the new stadium as the United
Slates military tournament which will
be held at Tacoma from July 24 to
July 30. In this tournament 2,000 reg
\u25a0 ular soldiers will participate in stir
r.ing field maneuvers, horseback rid
ing, races, track athletics, wall scal
ing, broadsword contests, etc This
contest will be held under direction
of the war department and under the
auspices of the Tacoma chamber of
commerce.
SAVANT MAY DISCOVER
THE FIREFLY'S SECRET
Experiments to' Learn Insect's
Lighting Process
MANHATTAN, Kan.. July s.— The aft
lamp of the firefly, what lights It and
why it is carried astern Is a question
for the solution of which J. O. Hamil
ton, professor of physics In the State
agricultural college here, is experi
menting.
The firefly, Professor Hamilton as
serts, surpasses anything Edison lms
<Jone in the amount of light obtained
,jrom the energy expended.
t illumination, he says, is given off
by a peculiar method of oxygenation
of waste products which turns all en
ergy into, light and none Into heat.
Before the summer is over Professor
Hamilton expects to have determined
jus^ "what the method is.
