A series of letters from different graduates
is to be printed in the Yale News, relating te
the dual league question. The first on.
which appeared yesterday was from W. 81
Corbin, $50. The stand which the Harvard
men will take in regard to the proposed
scheme of Yale is decidedly against conced
ing to Yale's demand of only one game o.
foot ball and the ineligibility of speeia
students. The Harvard Crimson says tha
Harvard will never agree to any such pro-
posals. If such be the CASE, 1t is more tina,
probable that there will be no dual League
