How the Grounds Mt Springfield Are
to be Made Ready for the Fale-Har.
ward Game.
The arrangements for the Harvard Yale
football game are nearly complete. Per-
mission has been granted by the park Off
cials to allow the stands to be built over the
track so that they will extend entirely
around the field, forming complete ann
phitheater. The east stand, seating 5000,
will be reserved, as in previous years, for
the Harvard admirers, while the opposite
side, with the same capacity, will be occu-
pied by the friends of the New Haven
team. The stands at the south and north
| ends will also have a seating capacity of
5000 and will be filed with lovers of foot
ball, irrespective of college loyalty. The
| Yale and Harvard seats will each be divid-
ed into ten sections. and 500 tickets, with
the section indicated, will be sold for each
| division. The price of reserved seats on
the sides of the field will be $3.50, includ-
ing admission to the grounds, while the
north and south-end stands will be 81 each.
The management will reserve at least one
third of the seats for Springfield people.
| The ropes about the field, which have hith.
erto proved inefficient, will be replaced this
year by substantial board fence four feet
high.
1t will please and interest hundreds to
know that on the day of the Yale-Harvard
| football game at Springfield a special train
will leave New Haven at 10 a. m. and re-
turning leave Springfield at $50 p. m.
| The admirers of the blue who have in
previous years been obliged to brave the
piercing winds which blow off the rivel
will be glad to. learn that this year thu
management will provide for their com
fort by building the stand solid, instead o.
the skeleton arrangement previously used
The main entrance to the park will be pro
vided with twelve turnstiles, which will
obviate the crush of former years. Ar
rangements have also been made for ampl,
police protection and everything seems t.
indicate that the public will be served ito
the entire satisfaction of all concerned
The gates will be open at noon this yea
and the game will probably be called a
$50 o'clock.
