KEEPING BARS UP
In MINOR SPORTS
Students at Columbia with
Degrees Not Eligible
for Teams.

All of Columbia's athletic teams are
to be true blue hereafter in that no
students holding degrees from other
colleges or universities will be eligible
TO represent Columbia in any branch
Of sport. The rule was first passed
last spring, and it was understood that
1t would apply only to major sport
teams, but when eligibility blanks for
minor sport teams were submitted TO
the university authorities last week
they were rejected on the ground that
the rules covered all branches Of
sport.
A close perusal disclosed that this
was the case, and accordingly all grad
yates of other colleges who are taking
work in the Columbia professional
courses will be unable TO compete on
any team.
The first case in which an actual
decision was made under the new reg
ulations was that OF Leyinson, goal
keeper on the water polo team. HIS
blank was sent through the 1sus
channels for approval, but was re-
turned unsigned. II was then learned
that he was not eligible. Levinson
holds degree from c. c. \. !.
The confusion as to the application
arose from the fact that when it was
adopted a rule also was approved bar
ring freshmen from all major sport
teams.
Several months ago R. ". Watt.
CAPTAIN Of the baseball nine, requested
the university committee on athletics
70 postpone enforcing the degree
holders" rule until the academic yea.
1867. There are several promising
candidates for the baseball team who
have degrees from other colleges. chief
among them being Laird, the oil
Princeton fielder. Action on this re
quest is still pending before the COM
mittec.
