SONS OF ELIS TO HAVE NO DIFFICULTY IN ENTERING YALE

If the statement of Mr. A. E. Wiggam, prominent biologist of New York, to the effect that the race of college men is dying off, is true, Harvard will have to look for another rival to take the place of Old Eli. Yale University authorities have recently announced that admission to the University is to be given to sons and grandsons of alumni in preference to other applicants whose marks in the admission examinations may be higher.

President Angell, in announcing the adoption of this plan, stated that after careful observations, it had been determined that the average marks of the sons and grandsons of Yale Alumni were two tenths of one percent higher than the marks of other students. The committee on admission is also considering a plan of selecting Freshmen largely through personal interview.
