Local Bookies Picking Yale By Six Points

Area oddsmakers have made Yale a six-point favorite in Saturdays game in Harvard Stadium.

Cambridge bookmaker "Scumbelly" Capelli, smoking a Ralph Cahaly White Owl cigar, thinks the spread may be forced even higher. "We've been getting a lot of action on the Yale side of the fence here, but nothing for Harvard," he said.

Another bookmaker, who refused to identify himself, asserted that the spread could easily double by Saturday. "If I was bettin' this one, I'd say Yale by 12," he added.

Two years ago, the teams tied.
