...finally been reached by the Harvard Athletic Association to retain the one hundred and fifty pound football team for another year, despite the vote of the Student Council to discontinue it, as a hindrance to the success of the House Football teams in their initial year. There are three valid reasons for the lightweight football team: it offers outside competition for a group of men physically unable to compete with an unlimited squad; Princeton will probably enter the field next year, making two opponents; and it is logical to continue a lightweight football team as well as the 150-pound...
