The Athletic Committee announces this morning that at its meeting on Monday night it voted:
"That the following resolution be adopted and transmitted to the Corporation and Overseers, and to the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, together with the appended statement:
"The Harvard Athletic Committee by virtue of the authority delegated to it by the Corporation and Board of Overseers hereby votes to sanction the game of football at Harvard as an intercollegiate sport for the season of 1906.
"The Committee has taken this action after a careful examination of the revised rules for football recently adopted by the American Intercollegiate Football Rules Committee. These rules seem to afford a reasonable assurance that a satisfactory game may be played under them, and the Committee considers it desirable and expedient to permit the Harvard team to co-operate with other university teams in the endeavor to test and exemplify these rules in intercollegiate contests."
