Yale Cancels J. V. Soccer

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Yale's coed now, but the change may have been at the expense of the junior varsity soccer team.

The Elis, who last won an Ivy soccer title in 1956, have cancelled the junior varsity schedule for this Fall because of a lack of players.

Yale's release did not link the cancellation of the season with the new policy of admitting women.
