Balloon shade plan for Dodgers at Coliseum fizzles
A proposal to move home plate and anchor a 50 foot balloon over the west end of the Memorial Coliseum to shade sun during Dodgers games failed after a 4–4 vote by the Coliseum Commission. Contractor Van Harris displayed a drawing and suggested rotating the balloon to dim sunlight, with costs potentially recouped via advertising. The plan depended on Dodgers negotiating with Pasadena for Rose Bowl use, and the commission deadlocked again on amendments.
