SHRINE S 300 | SEATS FORPLBLC Sale to Start Today, With Police Guards to Keep Order. Three thousand tickets for grand- stand seats during Shriné week pageants, representing virtually the entire public allotment were placed on sale today at 1218 F street. Although it may be possible to offer the public an additional 1,000 reservations later in the week, Thomas G. Ogram, chair- man of the seat committee, declared the demand had become so heavy that it had heen necessary to cut all al- lotments heavily. For more than a week the ticket committee, guarded by two uniformed policemen and a member of the Saracen Guards of Almas Temple with 2 loaded rifle, has been working be- hind closed doors filling, as nearly as limited space would allow, the ad- vance requests for seats from the visiting temples. Announcement of the public sale was delayed so_that the Shrine officials might give Wash- ington as many tickets as possible. The committee has been obliged to discard the pasteboards for 5,000 seats because the heavy foliage obscures a clear view of Pennsylvania avenue. In one stand alone a single holly bush has made it necessary to block off sixty seats, with a resultant financial loss | which must pay for their construction and concession regardless. The tickets to be placed on sale will Jbe for seats in stands on Pennsylvania avenue between 3d street and 17th street. It is expected that the doors o the ticket office in the salesroom of the Globe-Wernicke Company, 1218 F street northwest, will be opened about 1 o'clock. In anticipation of an un- usual rush the committee has reque ed the police department to hs guards on duty. Barred by Foliage. Mr. Qgram pointed out that al- though the number of seats allotted to Washington may seem small, sev- eral thousand citizens of this city have already been taken care of by friends beionging to Almas Temple. The committee limited each member of the temple to a given number of seats, but most of them used part of this allotment for friends who feared they would otherwise have to stand. In addition, a number of seats were s01d about ten days ago for the Peace Monument nd. which, all told. would give Washington a large share of the reservations, all things con- sidered, according to committee mem- bers. Will Burn Tickets. The question of what to do with the seats obstructed by trees puzzled the committee for sometime. At first it was suggested they be sold for 50 cents or a dollar. The suggestion was vetoed, however, since the committee decided every person was paying to see the parade from an unobstructed seat. As a result all of the 4,000 to 5,000 tickets are to be burned to make sure unscrupulous persons do not get hold of them and profit at the e pence of Washington or its visitors. The price of the ti from $3 to §5, including war tax. This gives each holder a seat for all three parades and is declared to be the cheapest price ever charged for any pageant in Washington, since the highest price for each parade would be less than $1.50. 0.
