FIVE-YEAR MEN
ELIGIB ILITY
is EXPLAINED

Brunswick. Me-, Feb. 9.-Principal
Gardner Of the Brunswick High school
today made a further statement rela-
tive to the protest filed Tuesday with
the Bowdoin athletic management rel
alive to tfive-year men competing at
Saturdays indoor meet.
THE rules of the competition pro-
hibit fifth year men taking place,
said Mr.. Gardner. Principal Jack OF
Portland and Principal Moulton of
Edward Little High. Auburn, and my
self made this protest after an inves-
tigation. But a single case was speci-
fled by us as a violation. This was the
case of Jordan and was based upon
information furnished me by Principal
Eaton Of Bangor High. He stated that
he had examined that athletes rec
ord by referring to files of the Bangor
High school Oracle. He found that he
played in two football games during
1910, that he played all the games in
1912, and that he had taken part in
athletics at Hebron in 1914 and 1915
and at other times with Higgins
Classical Institute. With this inform
alton we felt justified in lodging pro-
test.
I'VE made no specific protest in any
other case. We simply filed a protest
against fifth year men being allowed
to take part in the meet. In the course
of our Investigations we found that
a number of athletes who had been
under suspicion of not being eligible
were qualified to take part"
