YALE ATHLETIC PLAN
Proposed Voluntary Committee Creates Much Interest Among
 Alumni.

New Haven, June, 17-On the eve many activities, the publication of a report of voluntary committee" on the subject, selected by the com mittee of "Yale's athletic decline" created great interest today Alumni by the hundreds are arriving filling dornitories, fraternity houses and clubs, and apparently the committee report is the chief topic of discussion.
 Professor Clarence w. Wendell, chairman of the Yale board of ath- letic control reiterated his denial that he had resigned as chairman or con- templated doing so. What he has done is to resign the temporary po- sition of athletic director which he took when Al Sharp resigned. He gave notice some time since that his duties as a professor made it impos- sible to continue as temporary athletic director and the board Monday night it to act up his desire to give it up.
 Professor Wendell was not ready to make any extended comment on the report of the voluntary committee, body which he said he knew noth- ing of. He said however that the reference in that report" to an athletic deficit of s1o0,000 last year was "an injustice He said:
 We paid off the heavy war debts contracted during the war period when we were financing athletics without any source of income. We also made big payments on the Yale bowl and the athletic track. If the year is considered minus the payments on war time debts. it was a financial success. l believe that in another year we will clear up all the debts"
