INAUGURAL TICKET TIME ENDS TODAY All Reservations Must Be Called for Because of Heavy Demand. Ticket reservations for the inaugu- ral parade will not be held after to- day, it was announced by Rear Ad- miral Cary T. Grayson, general chair- man. The demand for tickets has become 80 great, Chairman Grayson said, that he feels it unfair to hold tickets Jonger and to deny persons who are willing to pay now for the oppor- tunity of getting desirable seats.

In one stand there are more than 30,000 bolts. For an- other, according to a construction foreman, “we used around four tons of bolts.” The big stand on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue, just east of Fifteenth street, has 224 sets of what carpenters call “X bracings,” bolted and spiked. The top cross timbers in these bracings are reinforced at the joints with “scabs,” heavy wooden slabs, about two inches thick and three feet long. The same factors for strength and safety are present in the other stands. All stands are sup- ported on mudsills, which distribute the weight of the structures in such a way that the upright supports won't sink into the ground. Backs of the stands are to be cov- ered with canvas to provide protection from wind, snow or rain.

District building inspectors have been supervising the construction daily, seeing that every timber and bolt is placed according to specifica- tions. This is to insure against acci- dents of the kind where “stands col- lapse, scores injured.” Regulations require that the fioor- ing be built to support a pressure of 100 pounds per square foot. Actually, the stands can bear up under a pres- sure of 600 pounds per square foot. Asked why it was necessary to use nothing but new lumber, one of the foremen replied that lumber was so cheap there was no particular advan- tage in using old planks. Further- more, he said, new lumber is easier to order in lots suited to construction plans.
