CORRESPONDENCE.

(To.the Editor)

Sir, —I am one of many who have been waiting patiently for t&e Borough. Council to adopt the excellent suggestion contained in your recent staibleader with reference to seating accomqplSSfcioAi^St the Recreation Ground. ThdPquestion i?oes not appear to have been dismissed at the. last meting of that body. $ With, the. large crowds tkat ' have attenfed the football on the laat two Satirdays, I think £ can safely ss«y^feat ,75 per cent could not see 50 Per. e.? n!fc.- o£ . the play...Ban-ing. accidents, the local team Will be the ultimate winners of the ChaanpioDship so that the attendances during t-lie second round wili be doubled and then trebled, provided the spectators are able to see 10Q per cent of the play in comfort. : I aia sure that iro reasonable person' would begrudge the small sum of 6d for the .pleasure of obtaining an unobstructed view. At this price, the oos^ of the structure would be recovered before tie end of the present sason. The question of a pavilion is another matter and-must be decided by the ratepayers in the near future. In this connection, I wouJ'd suggest that after the temporary accommodation is paid for, the • Council continue to make a * charge, t\e money so collected to bo used as the neuclus. of a fund for the. ere/etion of a permanent grandstand.'lf this suggestion were adopted, the council would have in . hand a tidy sum for .this purpose when, the time came to approach the ratepayers.—l am oH,
