Yale considers selling field for new stadium site
Yale athletic authorities study moving Yale field to land closer to campus to build a stadium. They would use surplus from the Yale Financial Union treasury to fund the project, with $190,000 available. Transportation costs and time loss for athletes are factors, along with nearby cemetery and swamp making current location undesirable. Williams gives $10,000 for two year old Firestone at California Jockey Club sale.
