ARTICLE BY Y.A.A. DIRECTOR RESURRECTS BOXING DISPUTE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Malcolm Farmer, Y.A.A. head, writing in the latest issue of the Yale Alumni Weekly, has again brought up the disputed boxing decision which led to the breaking of boxing relations a few weeks ago.

Farmer feels that Harvard has misrepresented the facts of the case, and claims that Harvard representatives agreed to running the bouts as they were run, on a point system; further, he claims that the N.C.A.A. which investigated the disputed match and gave the verdict to the Crimson, left the question open to doubt.

Meanwhile, the H.A.A. has no statement to make; unofficially both points brought up by Farmer are denied emphatically. The N.C.A.A. decision was definitely and unequivocally in favor of Harvard, and Harvard representatives did not agree to the scoring system used.
