FACILITY NOTES

          A WALL STREET JOURNAL editorial, on voters in MN and
     Pittsburgh opposing public funding of pro sports facilities:
     "Their resistance suggests that in the future the sports-
     complex boosters may have to rely more on themselves for
     financial coverage" (WALL STREET JOURNAL, 11/12)....In Ohio,
     a petition effort to let Dublin voters decide whether the
     city should help develop a 30,000-seat MLS stadium was

     valid signatures, the future of the $26.5M stadium will go
     on the ballot (COLUMBUS DISPATCH, 11/11)....In Indy, ISI
     Exec VP & COO Fred Fried, on negotiating naming rights for
     the Pacers' Indiana Fieldhouse: "We're looking at setting
     the bar at about $3 million a year" (STAR-NEWS, 11/11).
