But of late years certain proctors, as if exempt from any such custom, have refused to give up their rooms when requested, and it is on this matter that we wish to say a few words.

Hull, a valuable man, entered the law school and refused to go in the eleven. Now comes word that Hyndman, Peters and Richards are almost certain to play, and perhaps one or more of the others. Hyndman has managed to evade the college rule forbidding his presence in New Haven until his term of expulsion is over, by locating in a suburb called Westville, which, while in the limits of the town of New Haven...
