VARSITY CLUB TO KEEP OPEN UNTIL CHRISTMAS

After a week of idleness following the Yale game, the Varsity Club will reopen its training table today to continue operations throughout the year. In former years, the custom has been to close down after the football season until the opening of the track season, after Christmas.

The sports whose participants will have training tables are wrestling, basketball, and hockey. As usual, the track team will not eat there until after Christmas. When the Club closed down last week, the Varsity and Jayvee football, cross-country, and soccer squads had been eating there.

The advantages of the change will be the earlier formation of team spirit and the employment of Varsity Club waiters who would otherwise lose their jobs during the three weeks remaining before Christmas.

In the past, a number of systems have been tried out. Originally the Varsity Club had its own separate organization and steward for the eating arrangements. Three years ago, however, it was brought under the control of the union, and has been run as a department of the Union since that time. During 1933 the training tables were distributed for a few weeks among the Houses, but the system proved unsatisfactory and was shortly discontinued.
