A large sum is expected from Boston this morning, and some of the Yali; hackers are holding off. hoping for plight odds whn this reaches here. Yale men are givins 2 to 1 that their team will score, and plenty of Harvard money is offere dat the same odds that Harvard will tally.

B!G CROWD TO SEE PURDUE CONTEST Indiana Game Vill Attract 10,000, With Seats for Only 6,500.
New Haven, Conn.. Nov. 23. With every promise of a perfectly appointed Yale-Harvard football day, the thousands of early arrivals for the game and the New Haveners to whom the day means a rich harvest went to bed happy last night. A dry gridiron, cooler weather, a sunny afternoon for the 34,000 fortunate holders of tickets and a crowd of the finest quality, as well as quantity, that ever gathered for the biennial blue ribbon event of the gridiron here, were promised on the eve before the battle that closes the season for the old rivals. Last night the city's accommodations for housing a footboll crowd were strained to their capacity, and the crowd was probably Kreater than that of tonight, because the Harvard visitors boastfully proclaim that they expect to go back to Boston to celebrate, while many others stated that they planned to get back to Broadway for an evening at the theaters and tincrowded dining tables. Betting on the game was sharp and
Iafayette. Ind.. Nov. 23 Today's football game between Purdue and In
diana will attract a crowd of 10,000, and Lafayette will have a formidable job on its hands to feed the thiong. The problem of seating the big crowd on Stuart field is beyond solution. K::tra bleachers have been built all around the field, but the seats will not accommodate over 6,300. Every seat has been sold and hundreds of students and townspeople are demanding tickets. President Stone of Purdue issued a proclamation today calling on students and faculty mem
bers to show the visitors every possible courtesy. The Purdue band and a body of 1,000 Purdue students will meet the Indiana special and escort the visitors to Stuart field. The other excursion trains also will be met by the band. A feature of the ga.ne will be the absence of any cheering by Purdue rooters when Indiana has the ball. The Purdue studens recently adopted Ms rule. There is some betting, but it is mostly on scores. Purdue is a big fa-or-lte. The coaches have been striving to guard against overconfidence. oliphant is slightly overtrained and did not participate in the final signal drill yesterday afternoon. Capt. Hutchinson. Ball, Ruffner and Hanna will play their last game today. The choice for the 1913 captaincy appears to lie between Oliphant, Winston and Glossop, with Oliphant the favorite.

San Francisco, Ca!., Nov. pugilists are sensitive and
not. Some of the ringim-ii ro right along about their training without giving a thought to the sarcasm and badinage tsat emanate from the other camp. Others take everything that la said to heart, and want to "talk right back." Willie Ritchie is of the latter kind apparently. When Willie heard that Ad Wolgast was busy with plans for the invasion of the welterweight division after the Thanksgiving day bout he fejt highly irritated. In the language of the slangily inclined, "the story got his goat." The animal referred to cavorted around the village green flt San Rafael and refused to be captured or comforted. "If Wolgast is wise," said Willie, "he will attend strictly to his train
ing, and allow the welterweight class to take care of Itself. I should not wonder if Wolgast's purpose in giving out that kind of talk was to try and scare me, but if so it has failed com
pletely. Things are giving to well with me in mj" training, and I am too happy in the knowledge that Wolgast is signed to meet me, and that he cannot es
cape me to give much heed to bluffs."
