STADIUM NOTES

          The Orlando Arena, "coming off a dismal financial
     year," just finished its "busiest and perhaps most
     profitable month" since opening in '89.  That despite the
     fact that attendance for the Magic and the IHL Solar Bears
     is down "more than 1,000 spectators per outing" (ORLANDO
     SENTINEL, 3/8)....Official ground-breaking for Toronto's Air
     Canada Centre is scheduled for tomorrow (TORONTO SUN,
     3/11)....Twins VP Kirby Puckett and team broadcaster Bert
     Blyleven lobbied State Senate Republicans about the team's
     plan for a new ballpark (Minneapolis STAR TRIBUNE, 3/11).
