  • SummarySix people sleeping or resting against wall outside Yankee Stadium; sign on window grill in background reads, "Well Done Our Dodgers." Caption: "No Rush for Seats Here: Nobody's in a hurry at Yankee Stadium, especially at 2 a.m., when fans assembled to make sure they got tickets for opening game of World Series. Shining through the long night is a warm tribute to the Dodgers put up by those who wait and watch. Sunny skies guaranteed a sellout for the opener."
