They wish to have a winning team, and are helping to effect this.

Thompson, of the Athletic Association, has issued a statement to the effect that more than 150 students have been blacklisted as the result of the searching inquires which have been conducted in connection with the finding of Harvard-Yale game tickets in the hands of speculators. Nearly 100 were turned out of their seats or warned to leave during the progress of the game last Saturday, and some 30 were summarily ejected from the Stadium. The students listed lose forever the privilege of applying for seats at Harvard-Yale contests...
