was largely attended.
The number of visitors and automobile
parties already here has exceeded ac-

Hartford and Bridgeport took care of the
overflow, in fact automobiles found 1t
more convenient to stop at those places
upon learning on the advance that they
could not be housed here.
The demand for tickets continues large
although the ticket department has been
deserted all day. There have been no
tickets for anybody and people have &C
cepted the announcement and given up
the seige. Many tickets are known to be
in the hands of spectators who have
come here from Boston and New York
They have been asking from $40 to sd

IN for duty and their instructions are TO
take up all tickets offered publicly for
sale Counsel for the ticket department
announces that any person known to
have bought tickets of spectators Will
be elected from the field.
The Yale coaches were in long
session tonight discussing the plan to
be followed at tomorrow's game. This
fact gave rise to many rumors. one
of which was that changes in the line
up were likely. The condition of the
men was also inquired into by late
arrivals for somewhere there had
sprung up a story that some of the
Yale men We're overturned. SO rife
became the stories that before 10
o'clock it was announced that Harvard
men could not find any Yale money.
The betting had been at even all the
evening considerable amount had
been staked
Two specials from Boston arrived in
the early evening and the incoming
men seemed to be unusually jubilant
over the prospects.
