DISTRIBUTION PLAN
OF YALE PRINCETON
FOOTBALL TICKETS
New Haven, Sept. 26 In preparing
for distribution of tickets for the Yale-
Princeton football game, which will be
played at Tale Field in November, a
committee appointed, last winter, to
oversee the arrangements has recom
mended that the privilege heretofore
exercised by the undergraduate man
ager of the football eleven of distrib
uting 1,500 tickets to coaches and mem
bers of the football squad be replaced
by a definite schedule. '
The changes recommended would
give X00 tickets more for general sale
among graduates or among under
graduates. ' The committee draws up
a scale of ticket distribution which, if
adopted, would give 20 seats to the
captain, head coach and manager, the
largest number to any individual.
The number, allotted to other indi
viduals is- sharply scaled -down ' until
the body of undergraduates, save the
freshmen, have no more than two each,
and the same rule to apply to the gen
eral body of graduates.
