 The weekly athletic contests will be held in the gymnasium this evening at o'clock. Bothne, L. S., who has scored the most points for the shot-putting cup, has left sthe university. This is greatly to be re- gretted Jas he was the most promising man in the university in this line, and he was equal, if not superior, to the best man Harvard has at present in this branch of athletics.
 He was offered a very lucrative situation in a business firm and thought it better to, accept this than to continue his studies in the medical school. He may return next year, but it is not certain. Lyman '95 now has the largest number of points and may secure the cup. .: In the high jumping Dickson '94 is SO far ahead of his competitors that he is practically sure of the cup unless some accident happens to prevent.
 There has been 8 rumor circulating quite extensively about the campus that were to take up the study of Calculus, which has always been an elective, and much dissatisfaction was expressed. This | rumor, however, was emphatically denied yesterday by aprominent Yale professor, who furthermore said that such 8 thing had not even been thought of. Professor Hoppin will deliver lecture this afternoon at o'clock in the art | school on "Praxiteles"
 The tenth lecture in the Sheffield scien- | tiic school course will be delivered this sor Newton. His subject will be "The | Capture of Comets by Jupiter" The tickets for the Yale Harvard debate will be distributed at 60 South Middle on the afternoons of five successive days com mencing Friday, March IS, and will only be given to those who have paid their sub- scriptions to defray the expenses of the de- bate. The tickets for the gallery will be l given out at the coop. store on and after l Wednesday, March 23.
 AS lecturer in the Lyman Beecher course 1 for the next year choice has been made of the Rev. F. E. Norton, an English Congre- | oAAN distinction. He was an Oxford student, | graduating with honors, and is distinguish l ed both for his scholarship and for his sin. cerity and eloquence in the pulpit. | WILL ADMIT WOMEN. | The following official communication has been received from one of the members oi the faculty concerning the new departure in the course of graduate instruction al | Yale:
 1 At the last meeting of the corporation plan was adopted which will, in the neal future, extend greatly the postgraduate work of Yale university.
 Twenty scholarships, yielding tn, amount of tuition. or $100 each, and fvs fellowships of $400 each have been created These will be open to graduates of all col l leges. The most noteworthy feature o the plan, however, is the opening of tn, strictly post graduate courses and the de gree of Ph. D., on and after the fall of '92 without distinction of sex.
 It is not the intention of the universit, to compete with the colleges for women or to institute a department in rivalr, with co-educational institutions; but tt 1 receive the graduates of these institutions and give them as good opportunities fo the most advanced research and educ -tiol l az can now De secured only In EurOpe.
