NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

One hundred members of the band were doused with warm, soapy water during an impromptu concert at Yale at 10 p.m. Saturday night.

Three bus-loads of musicians, returning to Cambridge after the Columbia game Saturday afternoon piled out of the vehicles at Yale and began playing "Harvardiana" and "Ten Thousand Men of Harvard."

About 100 Yale students gathered around the band while other Yalies proceeded to cascade warm bath water on the intruders.

The concert came to an abrupt end as band members beat a hasty retreat to the waiting buses.
