Sell Out Seen As Helpful To Olympic Funds
New York officials hailed a possible $47 000 sell out at the two day Olympic track tryouts at Randall's Island as contributing to a looming $150 000 shortfall in funds to send an American team to Berlin. Avery Brundage said enthusiasm for ticket sales and local committees could add about $25 000 more, reducing the deficit by half.
