Show OLD BLEACHER SEATS DECREASE IN NUMBER Tribune Special Sport Service. NEW YORK. Ulay 2. Twenty-nve-ccnt basobull seems to be disappearing from the major league parks, Just now it Is a case of "If you haven't got four bits you needn't come around." Until a few yeai-s ago, when most of the club owners in the American and National Na-tional leagues began constructing new stands, there were many 25-cent scats. But since then they have been growing scarcer and scarcer. The old bleacher area in most of the parks has been cut Into three parts, tho two parts nearest the home plate selling at r.0 cents, and only the little stretch that Is farthest awuy from the plate being allotted to the 25-cenl funs. The rules of the big leagues provide for 2u-cent. seats, but thoy do not specify the number. Becauso of that little error the magnates have reduced the bleacher seals from numbers far Into the thousands thou-sands to numbers In the hundreds |
