This paper is descriptive of the new amphitheater constructed for the Athletic Department of Yale University. It is the largest structure of the kind in the world, and provides seating accommodation for nearly 61 000 spectators, a press-stand for about 250 reporters, and a photographers' stand for about 50 operators. It is in the form of a four-center oval, 300 by 500 ft. from face to face of the inner retaining walls, and about 750 by 930 ft. over all, covering an area of about 12½ acres.
