Athietics at Yale.

The following is a clipping from yesterday's Globe:-

"The details of the recent meeting held by the Yale College faculty have just been made public. The faculty voted to prohibit all athletic sports in the future, owing to the fact that the students disobeyed the injunction put upon them previous to the Yale-Harvard game, and celebrated their victory in the most frolicsome style. A strong effort is being made by the students to have the vote rescinded, and thus far they have succeeded in getting the faculty to hold the matter in abeyance for one week. Should the faculty refuse to reconsider the matter, all college athletics will have to be dropped. The boat races will come off as usual, as the college has no jurisdiction in the matter, because the race takes place after the close of the college term."
