President Mckinley, which takes place

college in the United State to send

in the inaugural ceremonies. These

Rogers, the stalwart Indian footbalEst

bered that Nebraska protested against

four years with Carlisle and was there
fore Ineligible to play on this years VAR
sity team. The protest came too late
to be officially settled before the game
of last Saturday. and the university man.
agement played Rogers, giving it's rea-
sons for so doing. DIR. Williams ex-
PLANTATION of the case settled it as far
as the public was concerned, as 1t proved
| conclusively that Rogers was entitled to
play. In order to settle the matter once
for all it was submitted to Prof. c. A.

conference. Prof. Waldo has just re-
Piled to the letter of Prof. Jones sub
hitting the case and he rules precisely
as did DR.. Williams.
Prof. WaIdo's official reply is as fol-
lows:
You have asked me to pass upon Car
isle as a college. For some years it
has been the custom of the conference
colleges TO cite the latest report of the
United States commissioner OF education
IN determining the rank of educational
institutions. In the absence OF other
evidence, documentary or otherwise. the
testimony of this report has been ac-
cepted as conclusive
Vol. IL. of the report of the United
States commissioner of education for 1885,

CLASHES the United States Indian school
at Carlisle, Pa, as secondary"
There can be no doubt that the protest
originated In a miSconeeption of the word
college or IN a misunderstanding of the
rank of the Carlisle school and so far.
as the allegations in NebraSka's protest
are concerned, Rogers has as good right
TO play ON MlnneSota'S team as has any
other person in your university.
&C. A. Waldo,
Arbitrator of the intercollegiate Confer
enee of Faculty Representatives.
Prof Waldo goes further in personal
letter to Prof. Jones and says:
|, After all these years of effort on the
part Of the conference colleges, the ap-
pearance of such a protest as that of
Nebraska, is, to say the least, discour-
aging. But 1t occurs to me that it may
furnish a good opportunity for US to eX-
plain to the public, what we mean by
the word college and in case the mat
ter Is given to the papers, it might be
Wen TO add one more paragraph explain
ing that when student of one college
migrates to- another during his college
course, there is always a suspicion of i'm
proper Inducements if the student in
question happens to be a fine athlete. To
allay this suspicion and to discourage
practices which are very harmful to clean
sport, the conference colleges have adopt
ed a one-year-probabtion clause

in each case. They were committed to
