Dates of the Big Games Between Yale,
 Princeton and Harvard.
 The dates of the big football games this year are: Harvard University of 8; Yale-P Princeton, Princeton, Noyern- Der 15; Harvard-Yale, New Haven, November p.
 The celebrated case of Schick, the Harvard sprinter, who competed in the intercollegiate games last May, de spite Yale's contention that he was in- eligible, was the subject of further discussion at a meeting of the New England A. A. A. U. in Boston on Mon day night last. Whether the Spring field games in which Schick took part were open or closed was a point ar gued by the New England board of managers, it being brought about by a letter from John Graham, the Har- yard athletic trainer, requesting rrll- ing. No definite action was taken, but the general opinion was that the games were closed. To this the ac- count of the meeting adds, however, that the feeling existed in the minds of members of the committee that the games ought not to have been closed r It is now considered probable that when asked for ruling by the inter- collegiate association the ruling will be that the games were closed.
