Reports were current yesterday that Bruce Caldwell, Yale backfield star, is ineligible to represent the Blue on the gridiron. A Providence newspaper declared that Caldwell played in two games on the Brown Freshman team in 1923, which, according to the eligibility rules in force at Yale, would bar him from competition.
Commenting yesterday on the incident, W. J. Bingham '16, Director of Athletics, said, "I only heard of the question of Caldwell's eligibility through this evening's newspapers. The protest emphatically did not originate from Harvard as under the old Big Three agreement, each university decided its own questions. Whatever the Yale authorities may decide in the Caldwell matter will be accepted in full faith by Harvard."
