At a mass meeting of Yale students held last Tuesday night, all the property of the undergraduate athletic association, including the Yale field and boathouse, was turned over to the President and Fellows of Yale. The New York graduates have agreed to raise $8000, the amount necessary to pay off the debt on the Yale field, so that it can be transferred free of debt. This transfer of property was made in order to get rid of the existing friction between undergraduate managers, and also to lesson expenses by placing all the various managers' departments under charge of a single graduate secretary and a treasurer. To the latter position, Walter Camp '80, has been appointed. The system of undergraduate managers will still be kept, but the managers will be under the treasurer's control. This plan is somewhat like the method here. Columbia has also seen the advantages of such an arrangement, and has recently formed a similar union of athletic teams.
