Boston, Nov. 21. = Deluged and d4zy4 by the unexpected thousands t>see..ulug upon the city for the mor- roN. 41arvard- Tale football game, Boston iS a Mustered host tonight ClH.a, throngs have gathered here Tor tniS grIdiron classic in past years. put . ali previous records pale in comparl- son with the 1919 crowds.
 Of. the scores of hotels and clubs or the city, not one has even a cot avail able for late corners. As result, long lines of automobiles are speeding to points as far away as Worcester ill the hope of finding quarters.
 Although the Harvard stadium will seat close to 50,0O0. the demand for tickets is far in excess of accommoda- tions. The omnipresent speculator is hard put to secure even pair of the precious pasteboards. and with bids Of sl00 for mid d-section seats the specula- tors find themselves unable to profit by the fabulous premiums promised for their aid.
 The contest has produced unusual conditions in other respects. Garage space is not for hire at any price in Boston tonight, and railroad officers say that more long distance specials will roll into the city tomorrow fore noon than at any previous game. There is no longer any question that football is even more popular than in pre-war days
 Wagering on the outcome of the game also appears to be more preva lent than in recent similar contests, al- though it is impossible to obtain any definite idea of the amount at stake. Harvard rules a slight favorite tonight at odds ranging from 5 to to 10 to T. though many small bets are being made between friends at even money The Crimson cohorts are confident that Harvard's eleven will win. while Yale's leEions, unperturbed by the defeat ad- rninistered by Princeton. predict that the Blue will be revenged at Harvard's s expunse and are wagering accordingly
 Both varsity football squads have been carefully sequestered from the excitement attendant upon the night before the game. The Yale players and substitutes visited the stadium this afternoon for a few minutes of practice to familarize them selves with light and wind conditions in the liar ward arena. after which they returned 10 the Belmont Springs Country club their temporary huarters. Aside from walk and possible last signal drill Saturday forenoon. their football work is past until they face the Crimson eleven at ID. m.
 The Harvard squad. located at the Essex Country -clih. irdulred in light signal and kicking drills. after the re turn of some Of the players. who mo tored to Cambridge for today's reel tations. Roth squads will s1end the nikht at their respective quarters and will not leave for the stadium unti noon tomorrow. Fair and warmer wa: the weather forecast for playing condi- tions

Of FIVE
MAY BLOCKADE
RUSS B0[SHEV|K

lRy Associated Press. y

PARIS, July 16. The Council of
Five met this afternoon. its chief topic
of discussion being the Russian block
ade. There have been proposals that
the powers stall allow ships 10 enter
Russian ports under special permits,
the United States having constantly
insisted that there has been no block
ade against Russia except such as is
incidental TO the embargo on imports
to Germany. Consequently the Ameri-
can delegates were not ready to take
any action in the matter until instruc-
tions have been received from WASH
ington. 1t has been suggested that
most of the Black Sea ports could be
blockaded by the Denelsine govern.

but the supreme council has not de-
cided to ask him to declare such a
blockade.
A note has been received from Bella
Kun, the foreign minister of the Hun
garian Soviet government, declaring
that the Roumanians violated the
terms of the armistice with Hungary
and consequently hungarian forces
were ordered to cross the boundaries
fixed by the armistice. The note
claimed that this order was issued in
self defense. The boundaries fixed by
the armistice are so uncertain that the
supreme council has referred the mat.

Ward Arnett Davis Meredith Scott

Although the primaries began quiet
ly enough yesterday at 1 o'clock as
soon as II. Shaw's hand picked heads
men got going right Republicans who
presented themselves at the polling
places fell like grain before reaper.
One vote for Democrat last fall was
enough to disqualify and although the
test was not applied as frequently at
some polls as others when 1t was all
over the Republican party in the city
was reduced to about $50 votes.
Among the well known members OF
the party who were refused voice in
the selection of the candidates were
James Thomas, cashier OF the Nation
al Bank of Fairmont, NJ. A. Fletcher,
treasurer of the Fairmont Trust Com
pany, n. z. Jamison, H. P. Robinson.
l.. NJ. Davis. There were others, OF
course, many others, and the case Of
G. j Nucci an east side merchant tail
or who votes in the First ward was
typical of what was going on.
Nucci, who Is Republican, takes
much of the political teaching he has
received rather literally. He believes,
for instance that secret ballot is a
secret ballot and that it is against
public policy for any voter to tell how
he voted. Therefore when he was
asked to tell yesterday how he voted
last fall he Indignantly infomed his
challenger that it was none of his bus
mess. The upshot of the matter is
that Nucci did not get vote and he
is not only highly indignant but has
to a certain extent been disillusioned
regarding American politics.
The Shaw partisans who conducted
the eelction are as follows:
First Ward-Commissioners, D. H.
Morgan, Charles H. Dawson, Miles
Prickett: clerks, He:schel Kinkead,
Kyle Schriver.
