ALAN ROTHENBERG AND FRED ROSEN JOIN NFL COLISEUM GROUP

          U.S. Soccer Federation Chair Alan Rothenberg and
     Ticketmaster CEO Fred Rosen have joined the group headed by
     NHL Kings Owners Ed Roski Jr. and Philip Anschutz attempting
     to bring an NFL team to the proposed new L.A. Coliseum. 
     Roski said that he expects additional partners to be
     announced soon (Coliseum Partners).  In L.A., T.J. Simers
     writes that, in adding Rothenberg and Rosen, the Coliseum
     partners "are looking to generate more oomph into their
     efforts to stay ahead of Hollywood Park."  Rosen said he and
     Rothenberg will become minority owners in the project. 
     Simers adds that the details of the "financial level of
     commitment" by the two have yet to be agreed upon.  While he
     said he has never spoken with Anschutz, Rosen said, "I've
     talked to Ed Roski, and other people had indicated to me
     that Mr. Anschutz was committed to building the [new
     downtown] arena. ... Those people have given me the same
     assurances about football" (L.A. TIMES, 11/21).
