BROWN STILL UNDECIDED.

The matter was to have been brought up before the Brown faculty last week, but owing to press of other business it was deferred until Tuesday evening, when the faculty had a free discussion of the resolutions. While agreeing with the general tone of the paper, as intended to elevate athletics, they did not approve of several particulars, especially restrictions in regard to playing professional nines. They agreed with the resolve to do away with professional trainers. It is thought at Brown that the resolutions would practically kill baseball, which is the only sport which is much practised there. The reason assigned is that Brown compels its students to attend recitations regularly and thus practice can only be obtained from local professional and amateur nines. Otherwise than with regard to baseball the regulations do not particularly affect Brown. Nevertheless the decision of their faculty will be awaited with interest.
