HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
A new set of eligibility rules was adopted at Yale at a mass meeting held on February 18, the rules to go into effect next fall. The clause in the old rules, requiring that students in the graduate departments must have completed one year at the university, in order to compete for the university, was omitted in the new rules. Last Tuesday, at another mass meeting, it was voted that the new rules go into effect at once. Under Harvard's eligibility rules and Yale's old eligibility rules, such men as J. S. Spraker, Yale '03 L. S., of the track team, and J. S. O'Rourke, Yale '03 L. S., of the baseball team, would have been shut out, by the requirement that a student must have resided at the University one year and passed his examinations satisfactorily before competing for the university. The change of rule, however, establishes the eligibility of these two men at Yale without any question.
