SUPPORT FOR RENOVATION OF MILE HIGH STADIUM IN DENVER?

          A proposal to renovate Mile High Stadium won a "show of
     support" Wednesday, "but immediately stalled for a lack of
     $180,000," according to Ann Imse of the ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS. 
     Five Denver City Council members voted to ask the mayor and
     two independent stadium boards to include "re-use of Mile
     High" in their discussions of a new football stadium for the
     Broncos.  The move was a "small but crucial first step"
     toward winning city backing for architect Stuart Ohlson's
     proposal to renovate Mile High.  The stadium board said that
     it must have "a serious price tag" for Ohlson's plan, but
     Ohlson said he needed $180,000 to pay for the "detailed
     construction drawings necessary for such an estimate." 
     Mayor Wellington Webb's office said they won't pay Ohlson,
     but five council members did agree there has not been
     "sufficient consideration of the renovation of Mile High"
     (ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS, 3/13).
