There has been in recent years a steady increase in the undergraduate interest in these sports, not only in Harvard, but in other colleges, and probably if encouraged for a time they will eventually be able to stand on their own feet. But such a blow to them now as would be dealt by the new policy of the Athletic Committee would be nearly fatal to some if not to all of them.
