A long trip in a cold rumble seat, a rather late evening somewhere-in-Boston, not quite enough blankets and no mattress at all do not form quite the proper prelude for a holiday. That nevertheless is the program of a large percentage of New Haven visitors when they come to Cambridge every odd fall...
