VIRGINIA GROUP NAMES POSSIBLE STADIUM SITES

     Fairfax County, VA, officials revealed 12 possible sites for
a stadium they hope to build for a baseball expansion team for
Northern VA.  The sites are spread throughout the county, with
officials saying an ideal site would be "more than 100 acres,
close to a major highway and an existing or planned rail system."
A 33-member committee will narrow the list down to "two or three"
preferred sites within a month.  Loudoun County has also
identified two sites for a potential stadium.  Outgoing Fairfax
Board Chair Tom Davis, who will represent the area in Congress
starting in '95, has said the estimated $250M needed for a
facility would be paid for "almost completely with money
generated by the development" (Eric Lipton, WASHINGTON POST,
12/21).
