"BOO|NG" Is CAUSING FRICTION AT HARVARD Graduate Says Crimson
 Should Have an
 Understanding.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 2,-The
 "booinG" in the Stadium. which has
 been constant reminder this fall
 of antipathy to Harvard, has created
 internal feeling, but so far words
 are being flung about much faster
 than fists. Fully one-half of the Har-
 ward attendance this fall has rooted
 for the visiting teams for no other
 reason than that those wo do the
 cheering and "booing" have very
 bitter feeling for anything Harvard
 Considerab ble of the roofing against Harvard is attributed by Sol Rosen- blatt of omaha, of the law school
 to graduate students who comf from other colleges, or to students who transfer from other institut ions t. become undergraduates here. He says that they are allowed to sit in the Harvard cheering sections and root for the visiting teams. He Sequests that some other location be assigned to these men who. while studying at Harvard. cheer against her. Com munications on the subject are food ing the college daily.
 NJ, NJ. Hollowell of Chicago. a grad uate student. admits that 1t is d sur prisng thing that graduate students ore ds ltNdl as they are. lie says great majority of them are for Harvard against Princeton and Yale, but favor the other teams in the earlier games. He says that this lack of loyalty is not noticeable in other institutions, and that the matter is purely local. In the case of Harvard Hollowell says. graduate students are given to understand here and among alumni that they do not quite belong" He adds that if Har- ward will really meet her graduate students half way, they will come the other half and be more than glad to do it.
 Harvard certainly received a sur rpise when the demonstration was staged for Centre after Saturdays game. There was little more than handful of regular Centre rooters, but thousands of we'll wishers, made so not because they loved Centre, but chiefly on account of the feeling against Harvard. Only at games with Princeton and Yale have similar dem onstrations occurred, but even then nothing like the shoulder parade giv- en McMillan and his pals from the stadium to the locker building. And among congratulations sent Centre from Kentucky was one from Har- ward graduate
 The "booin9" is apparently injurinr the morale of the team The jam Sat urday when Grew and Buell. were ss- saulted, was to be regretted. In fact most of the Harvard players were jostled as the large crowd started to leave the stadium. Some of the play CTS in the throng didn't know any thlng about the occurrence until they read of 1t in the newspapers. The papers were called on the telephone. so 1t is understood, by college officials and given the story. This has made feeling all the more intense, authough at present the war of written com 'nunlcations has not got far beyond | the intramural stae.
