Dr. Sproul answered allegations by several Southern California sources that California alumni bought up practically all seats in the Rose Bowl and that few Pasadenans could buy tickets. Each., of some 30,000 California alumni was entitled to six tickets and a block was set aside for Ala- bama, California’s cpponent. The stadium holds 85,000. “Natural I regret exceedingly that it should have been the bad fertune of the University of Califor- nia to bring to light the inequalities f the ticket distribution agreement. When the agreement was made, it was undoubtedly the intention of all concerned to insure the financial success of the Tournament of Roses.
