The crowd was taken to and from

adherents Of the cardinals came up TO
this city in two special trains decorated
with the colors OF the college.
The visitors then made their way

bulk OF the Stanford people returned
to Palo Alto by a special train which
left Oakland after the night show and
went around the bay by way OF Newark.
