RICHFIELD, Ohio (UPI) — Management at the Coliseum, where the British rock group The Who is to perform tonight, is telling all persons who don’t hold tickets to the sold-out concert to stay away.

No general admission or standing-room tickets will be available for the concert, for which 19,000 tickets have been purchased, Coliseum management said.

“Since the concert has been sold out since October, there’s no reason for anyone who doesn’t have a ticket to be there,” a spokesman said.

In addition to the normal security force of 120 police officers for a sold-out concert, some sheriff’s deputies will be on hand.

“We will most likely add sheriff’s deputies outside,” said Coliseum publicist Maggie Jones.

Officials said tickets will be checked at entrances to parking lots, and those without valid tickets will not be admitted.

They added that all 56 east and west entrances to the Coliseum will be open to help alleviate the crush of concert-goers.

In Monday night’s performance of The Who in Cincinnati, where 11 people were trampled to death by persons holding general admission tickets, only two doors were open to Riverfront Coliseum. Officials blamed the general admission seating for the mob which stormed through the two doors in a rush to get good seats.

The sponsor of the local performance of The Who, Cleveland promoter Jules Belkin, Belkin Productions Co., said his firm has a policy of selling only reserved seating to rock concert audiences.

“Since 1974, we have had only reserved seating for our rock concerts,” Belkin said. “Clevelanders want reserved seats. It’s safer and more orderly.”

Doors to the concert will open at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, 1 1/2 hours before the performance is scheduled to begin.

DENIES BILL PAYING

NEW YORK (UPI) — David Rockefeller, chairman of the Chase Manhattan Bank and a friend of the deposed shah of Iran, has denied a published report he co-signed the hospital bill for the shah’s medical treatment in New York.

“The report today that I co-signed the shah’s New York Hospital bill is totally untrue,” Rockefeller said in a statement issued by a spokesman Wednesday. “I had no involvement whatsoever with respect to the shah’s bill.”

Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi entered New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center Oct. 22 for removal of his gallbladder and treatment of lymphatic cancer.

He left for a U.S. Air Force base in Texas last Sunday.
