Harvard is entirely willing to leave the decision of Roos's eligibility to Yale, and the CRIMSON believes that Yale's sense of good sportsmanship will arrive at the only just decision--the disqualification of Roos, and the awarding of the meet to Harvard.
The simple facts are these. Yale admits that Roos has competed for four years he competed at Columbia; in 1913 he won the shot-put for Yale in its dual meet with Harvard, and in 1914 he won second place against Harvard.
Yale must conform to one set of rules or the other. Under either Roos is ineligible.
Harvard wishes to enter into no technical wrangle with Yale on this or any other question. It is putting the case of Roos squarely up to Yale and it will abide by Yale's decision.
Oler is easily the best high-jumper Yale has had in several years. The other entries are uncertain. Matthews and Hampton are the broad-jumpers. They tied for second in the 1914 Harvard meet. Roos will do the shot-putting and Lough-bridge and Talbott the hammer-throwing.
