HARVARD MEN NOT ELIGIBLE:
RUMoRS OF PROFESSIONALISM But YALE
MANAGEMENT IS SILENT.

TBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE-l
New-Haven, Conn. Nov. 1s-Yale undergraduates
for several weeks have been discussing runors as
TO the eligibility some Of Harvards players, and
since the Glass case nave begun look into certain
charges that had been heard. Last week and this
week this talk has been going on, and has finally
got into local papers. This evening The New
Haven Register" gave the following survey OF the
Three of the most valuable men on the Harvard
involved in charges OF professionalism OF
straight and simple character The three men are
Captain Campbell. the end Cults the tackle, and
Herman. the halfback. The case OF Herman is per-
haps the most aggravated 1t is said that he has
played baseball for cash, and specifications of his
receiving $50 for pitching game in South Boston
last summer are said TO be substantiated The
said He was for three years instructor in Haver-
football 10 the college eleven. Three years of
teaching gave CUTS lot of practical experience IN
playing the game. Captain Campbell coached at
Worcester Academy when student there.
1t is not TO be understood from this that Yale's
football management accusing Harvard play
ers OF these things. No one Of Yale's football
officials would tonight make a single statement
detrimental to Harvard's lineup. But 1t is the
same sort OF talk whether based on as good
grounds or not that led Yales taking the
stand she did in the Glass If the assertions
made regarding either Campbell, Cults or Herman
are true 1t is probable that Yale's football au-
thorities would like Harvard do the proper
thing regarding them. No official protest, however
is likely to be made. though II is understood that
letters have passed between Yale and Harvard
regarding these men. Whatever action may come
is to be looked for rather from Harvard
To-day the entire Yale varsity eleven that played
in the Princeton game at Yale Field and went
through an hour and a half of signal practice
work In which the formations be tried

man. the coach will try especially TO put into the
team this week The signal practice was entirely
