...issue, however, does not seem to depend on the Yale point of view but rather on that of Harvard. There are many ways in which Harvard's athletic policy differs from Yales; and if, in the present case, the price is exorbitant, it is exorbitant whether it is a Yale custom...
...tendency has been to reduce this item of expense to members of the University one looks in vain for some justification for the Athletic Committee's action in imposing this additional tax.

There should at least be that percentage of undergraduates. The membership by classes and departments is as follows: 1905, 266 1906, 312 1907, 311 1908, 421 Law School, 157 All others...
