YALE GRADUATES GET BEST SEATS

Cheering Section of Rivals Limited to Only Top Rows of Bowl.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

When the Yale undergraduates were allowed to use the Bowl for the first time Wednesday, they discovered that the cheering section has been limited to the upper rows of the west stand, behind the section of 3600 seats allowed to the men who subscribed to the fund to build the Bowl. The plan of allowing those who subscribed to the fund the privilege of the best seats in the Bowl has never been popular with the students. The Yale "News" in an editorial condemning the action of the authorities, says: "The reason for this mysterious system of allotment is the necessity of securing a certain amount of money for the completion of the Bowl. In order to raise this money it was found expedient to promise the subscribers seats for 15 years 'to be the best in the stands'. In fulfillment of this agreement the section which should belong to the students must be given up to the subscribing graduates."
