 For present entrance requirements he would substitute judgment of the students intelligence and character and evidence of the accomplishment of what ever kind of high school work he may have chosen.

FAMOUS NEGRO ATHLETE
 OF OTHER DAYS PASSES
William C. Matthews Once Was Star at Harvar1-lAtcr Assistant
 Attorney General.

Cambridge. Mass, April Il R- Old tuners at Harvard university to- day were recalling the days when William C. Matthews the crimson's most famous negro athlete, held sway in three sports, quarter of q century ago.
 Matthews, an assistant United States attorney general, died yester- day in Washington. He entered Har- ward after distinguished scholastic and athletic career at Phillips And- over academy. where he won his let ters in football, baseball and track and was the first of his race to cap- tain an Andover baseball team.
 At Harvard he proceeded to dupli- cate his Andover career. AS . short- stop he was regarded without peer. before or since, and as a man he was held in such affection by his fel- low players that they abandoned a southern trip rather than leave him behind or out of the lineup.
 He was graduated from the col- lege in 1904 and later took a gradu- ate course and finally degree from the Boston University Law School. He coached several Boston high school athletic teams and for several years was coach at Noble and Grcen- ough preparatory school.
 Matthews work in classroom and field was regarded as the more re- markable because throughout his at- tendance at school and college he was forced to earn his way. He worked variously as sleeping car porter, bell boy and waiter and when at Harvard he taught nights in the Cambridge school.
