New Haven, Conn, Nov. a This city
today was the Mecca for worshipers at
the gridiron shrine, and the pilgrimageI
began yesterday afternoon and contin-
ued until noon today. Every morning
train into the city on every railroad was
crowded, bearing spectators anxious
and willing to pay large sums for
chance to witness the annual battle and
the closing contest Of the nineteenth
century between the giant teams of
Yale and Harvard.
The management has simply been un-l
liable to satisfy the demand for seats al
tho 1900 new seats were completed yes
terday by 100 workmen engaged for the
purpose. There has been no public gale
of tickets and both Yale and Harvard
managers have done their utmost to dis
lcourage everybody who has expressed
a desire to go. Twenty-one thousand
seats in the amphitheater have been
provided. and all have long been gold.
The receipts Of the day will amount to
is5o,o 900.
Lovers of the game were sorely disap-
