Stadium Keeps Its Wooden Goal Posts, As Yale's Steel Posts Are Scorned By A.A.

Dartmouth Gets Only Uprights To Fall This Season

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Wooden goal posts will remain on Soldiers Field, despite Yale's decision to adopt collapsible steel posts, according to the H.A.A.

It was rumored recently that disappearing standards might be erected, but this was denied by H.A.A. officals.

Yale now has steel posts set in concrete installed at a cost of $2000. In one year that Harvard installed similar posts, somebody brought out a block and tackle and pulled the concrete out of the ground along with the posts. The Blue erected her goal posts that fold into the ground last year after a severe criticsm by President Angell concerning student behavior during football games.

The current American tradition of tearng down one's opponent's goal posts after a hard-fought football game has occurred here only once this season, during the Harvard-Dartmouth game. No one was hurt in the melee.
