From England comes the news that by a vote of 904 to 713 the plebiscite conducted by Cambridge University has rejected a propo a to admit women on equal terms with men.

...comparative scores and decide next Saturday's game before the team reaches New Haven, unless they refuse to become over-confident. Of one thing they may be sure: Yale at New Haven is going to present a far different team from Yale at Princeton. Comparative scores do not admit the all-important element of psychology, especially the influence of playing on the home field.
