BASKETBALL IS ABOLISHED

By Vote of Athletic Committee Last Night.--Golf Schedule Approved.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At a meeting of the Athletic Committee held last night in the Union it was voted to abolish basketball as an intercollegiate sport in Harvard College. Although the reasons which governed this decision of the Athletic Committee were not incorporated in a minute, it is generally understood that such a decision was reached on account of the ill success of the sport at Harvard, the lack of interest among the players and undergraduates, the poor facilities for the sport, and the fact that, as an indoor sport, it is not considered physically beneficial.

The following schedule for the University golf team was approved:

May 12--Fall River.

May 17 or 21--Braeburn.

May 22--Oakley Country Club.

May 17 or 21--Wollaston.
