    In response to palestra38

I can report without hesitation that neither Henderson nor Banghart favored The Palestra as the site for the tournament. Neither had veto power over the selection. Once the decision was made to have the thing, the remaining logistical decisions were made by "the committee." No other site in the league offers the advantages available at Penn: plenty of hotel rooms and plenty of seating capacity. If Penn grabs the 4th spot (or 3rd for that matter) and then wins the thing I would imagine the league would be compelled to consider a neutral site next year.
