Army Navy Classic Restricted Contest
The White House trimmed the Army Navy game from a huge 190000 crowd at Philadelphia’s Municipal Stadium to a restricted, about 15000 spectator event in West Point New York. The White House blocked the usual spectacle and shifted the classic to a small town contest. A note adds that major earthquakes occur globally about weekly on average.

Wiregrass Stadium Gets New Press Box
City officials erected a prem box at Wiregrass Memorial Stadium to improve football coverage in Dothan. Previously a bar atop the stadium limited grid reporting.
