New York Could Host Major College Football Fixtures
Frank G Menke notes New York lacks a top annual game since Columbia quit. A Cornell Brown tilt drew about 15 000 with 8 000 in attendance, suggesting a Notre Dame Dartmouth or Michigan Dartmouth clash at the Polo Grounds could draw 38 000. Managers may stage one big game in New York to boost interest and revenue.
