at Yale now and before prohibition, 1t should not turn to present stu dents, who were about II years old when prohibition became effective.
 "Only q little over fifty per cent of the faculty voted that drinking was greater now than before prohibi tion," Professor Fisher said.
 "All of the faculty is not compe- tent to testify because many came there after 1919. It was for that reason that l went to those who knew the facts from tho record. They were unanimous In their con- clusou that drinking had decreased.
 "I think the students have been misled by wet propaganda"
 The professor said he had gone after the facts as to whether drink ing had increased,
 While there is drinking today at Yale, as at other universities where we have flaming youth, ] think it Is less than of other col lcges of its size" he added.
 If you could get the records, could not the students have gotten them also" asked Reed,
 "They had only 48 hours in which to prepare to vote on it." Fisher rc- piled.
 Pressed by Reed. Fisher said he thought it better for the students to get liquor from a hootlegeer than from an open saloon because, "Thcre is not so much of it."
 Don't you know Yalo students can get all they want from tho boo'leggers ."
 "No, ] don't think so.'
 "Do you know anything about ito"
 "No".

IMPORTANT CHANGES AT
 UNIVERSITY ANNOUNCED
Yale and Its Frats Plan to Move 10 May Way For sterling
 Memorial Library

New Haven, Conn.,, April 24 Pl-- To accommodate goo students, three iraternities and two business organi- 2atlons now occupying buildings which are to be torn down to make way for Yalc's Sterling memorial library to be begun after com mencement this year, several changes in housing are 10 be made, the university announced today.
 The university has arranged to use for dormitory purposes It's houses at 3e0 and 3S1 Temple street and 80 Wall street. buildings which have heretofore been leased to private families.
 Shops now occupied by the Yale Cooperative corporation and the Brick Row Book Shop are among the structures to be wrecked. As these two organizations play an i'm portant part in the life of the uni Hersity community. the authorities have deemed It desirable to locate them as near as possible to the ccn- ter of the business district more fre- auented by students. To this end the university has asked the tenants of the building on Elm street next to the west side of the gymnasium 10 Vacote by July in order to &C., 'ommodate the Brick Row and the Cooperative.
 Tho fraternitios of Psi Upsilon, Beta Theta pi and Zcta Psi, whose buildings must be torn down also have bought land on which they will soon erect new houses in the center of the block on York street opposite the Memorial Quadrangle.
