WARRIORS PROMISE NOT TO RAISE SEASON-TIX $$ FOR TWO YEARS

          In a move Warriors officials called "unprecedented,"
     the team said yesterday that they will not "raise their
     season-ticket prices for the next two years," according to
     David Steele of the S.F. CHRONICLE.  The team described the
     move as "a reward to fans who stayed loyal through the NBA
     lockout and through the team's five years of missing the
     playoffs."  Team VP/Business Operations Robert Rowell:
     "People were saying, 'Well, now that you have cost
     certainty, what are you going to do for us?'"  The team is
     also "reducing season-ticket prices for seats in the lower
     bowl" of Oakland Arena, "with some" being cut by 44%.  The
     Warriors and the NBA also used the occasion to unveil the
     official logo for next February's All-Star Weekend in the
     Bay Area (S.F. CHRONICLE, 5/18).  In San Jose, Jesse Barkin
     writes that the yellow, orange and dark blue logo features
     the Bay Bridge (SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS, 5/18).
