Yale-Princcton football game had been sold.
lie stated that he had received n large number
Of applications which could not be answered..
and that he believed tho attendance would
break all previous records. Mr.. Curtiss declared
that there were probably $4,000 persons who
wanted to SEQ the game, and that less than
$4,000 could be accommodated inside the
grounds.
There are abont IL, 500 seats in Manhattan
Field" said Mr.. Curtis, and the field boxes and
coaches will accommodate perhaps 1000 more.
The general admission tickets will be limited to
5000, and that will tax the capacity OF the
field. Tho managers have done the best they
knew how to answer the demands of the public.
but as the tickets, outside OF those emitting
purchasers to admission, have been disposed OF,
we can do no more"

LAwREycEvrLLE Nov. 1s. Tho Andover-
Lawrenceville game will be played here on FRI
day. instead of Thursday, as heretofore an
nounced. the Andover team wishing one moro
day TO recover from the effects of the Exeter
game played last Saturday. Lawrencsville has
had many new men TO develop. and has not
reached tho effectiveness former teams have
shown at this time Of the year. Two Of the best
hacks have had to retire from the team. and
tho new ones are extremely weak in catching
punts. Andover pnnted invariably in her game
with Exeter on the first down, and her men
have been carefully drilled to catch kicks. The
Andover boys may be under some disadvantage
by playing on strange grounds. but so far MS
team work Is concerned they have evidently de-
veloped a better lot OF players.

the inter-class series was played on the Plain

cheering throughout the game. Tho teams
were evenly matched as regards weight. but '9S
proved to be the stronger. both on offensive and
defensive play. For '0S. Hancock, Maginnis.
Fries. and Martin did the best work. while for
81, Cakes. Roberts. and Murphy showed TO ad-
vantage.
