The morning call., 1893-12-01

The day opened with a temperature like
April. but with wet, s0ggy clouds over
hanging the sky. AS the hours passed,
however, the sun broke through the re-
treating hosts of Jupiter Pluvius and the
promise was for good weather when the
teams should get together. The belated
ticket purchasers had to pay dearly for
their dilatorin ess in securing the first re-
quisite to an entrance TO the grounds; SO
was readily paid and $50 and even $50
given up for one of these pieces of paste
board.
The betting was very decidedly in Yale's
favor. Sporting men freely offered two 10
one and five to three on the blue against
the black and yellow. Bets of 1000 to 500
on Y ale were numerous, with any guam
tity of smaller ones 25 TO Is. Experts said
there were no such odds between the
teams, but that seemed to make no differ
ence with the sports more than willing to
place their money.

mence the weather became perfect, the
sun shining in cloudless sky. The air
was crisp and invlgorating. and the COL
