 The next question after the weather was the condition and the chances or victory of the team.

Wnlle 1o man every undergraduate at liar ward. had an air of expectation and was strong in the belief that the team rep resenting the crimson would carry out President RooseyeltsS admonition ana tight to the very last ditch !
 The betting this morning. as it had been during the past week, was in favor Of Yale. the odds being on an average of about , to 4. A number uf these bets, however, had strings to them by reason of the sensation of last night that Cuts. the big Harvard tackle. night be ruled out of the game because of his connection with ath- 1etfcs at the Haverford academy, Penn sylvania. This controversy for few hours this afternoon proved momen- 1Ous enough to outweigh any weather discussion and was a fruitful theme of argument in all the Boston hotels about Harvard square.
 The crowd began to gather quite early. a large number Of old graduates coming in during the early forenoon and congregating at the different club houses and the rooms of many of the students.
 The arrangements for handling the great crowd at the field were very complete. The avenues leading from Harvard square and also from AllstOn were closed to carriage traffic at 5 o'clock in the morning in order that there might be no block or hindrance 10 the thousands coming from either direction. Half regiment of police men kept the crowd moving and di- rected the ticket holders to the differ ent entrances.
 As the morning wore on the weather showed no signs Of Improvement, but till as 1t did not actually storm there eened to be good prospect at Il clock that the players would find q sard. dry field.
 The announced lineup this morning gas as follows:
 Harvard. Position. Yale. campbell (capt. left end. Gould (capt) Siagden ..-. left tackle ....... Goss Lee left guard .... OIcott sargent .....s. center .... Holt Barnard .... right guard .... Hamlin .Cntts zee. right tackle .... Hogan Bowditch right end ..... swan Marshall .. quarterback DeSat1lles kernan left halfback Hart Ristine .. right halfback .ChadwicE Graydon -... fullbaek ... Weymouth
 Both teams are in good spirits and both are confident of winning. Coach Srillman of Yale made the following statement: We are full of nope, but our confidence is not very. very great. Somehow the Yale team seems unable 10 play it's game when needed. If Yale plays the game played during the week We shall win. IT. however, The team plays as ragged as against Princeton last Saturday, Harvard should win by 1S-O''-
