HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
Dean Christian Gauss of Princeton, backed strongly by President Hibben, stood forth yesterday against the American Association of University Professors which found that football is a menace to morals and education, when he stated that, "football, properly coached and conducted, is a healthy and wholesome sport for players and spectators.
