PALMER MEMORIAL STADIUM, built in 1914 from the design of H. J. Hardenbergh, is a U-shaped structure of reinforced concrete with seats for more than 50,000 persons. Until the fall of 1937, the excellently coached football teams of Herbert O. Crisler performed for the enrichment of the Princeton tradition and the more tangible enrichment of the athletic association. The association operates, however, under a standing deficit of $75,000. Although President Dodds attracted national attention in 1936 by his request that spectators keep liquor out of the stadium, the janitors still pick up empty bottles after every game. Invitation track meets annually attract large crowds.
