REPORT SAYS MD GOVERNOR OVERESTIMATED IMPACT OF RAVENS NEST

          Although MD Gov. Parris Glendening's administration has
     predicted that the new state-financed Ravens stadium will
     generate nearly $184M a year for the state, the MD General
     Assembly's Office of Policy Analysis "predicts the figure
     will be about one-third that much," or $64M, according to
     Charles Babington of the WASHINGTON POST.  In addition,
     while the administration says the stadium will create 2,792
     jobs, the Policy Analysis report, which was issued this
     week, predicts only 889 new jobs.  Both Glendening and the
     MD Department of Business and Economic Development declined
     to comment on the report (WASHINGTON POST, 6/19).
