In a recent issue of the WEEKLY an article on the University Athletic Club of New York omitted one or two im- portant features of the Club. One of the most attractive of these features is the accommodation offered for resident or non-resident members in the eleven bedrooms of the club house. The article also failed to state the fact that the payment of the initiation fee of the members is spread over sev- eral years, instead of being payable in advance. The qualifications for membership were not as clearly stated as_ they should have been. These are the same as those of the University Club, and require a degree after a course of not less than three years study. The name of Mr. Adee has always been so closely associated with this Club in its important offices and its important acts, that it was taken for granted that he was still at the head of the important athletic committee, As a matter of fact, however, Mr. Adee retired from that committee two years ago and has not been a member of it since. <n > ee ee. Gift to Vale Medical School. The sum of $1,000 has been given to the Yale Medical School by Mrs. D. C. Leavenworth of New Haven. Mrs. Leavenworth is the widow of the late D. C. Leavenworth, M.D., of the Medi- cal School Class of Sixty-Five. The gift will be known as the Leavenworth Memorial Fund, and it will be used in defraying the general expenses of the School. The Anniversary Committee. The Committee on the Celebration of the Yale Bi-centennial met Tuesday in this city for organization, but did not complete the organization at that sitting. Another meeting will be held soon for this purpose. In the list of names of members of this Committee, announced in the last WEEKLY, the name of Professor Henry W. Farnam did not appear. This was due to a clerical error in making up the list. Professor Farnam was one of the twenty-two members appointed by the Corporation. «+t | Will Be Reinstated. The Yale Basket Ball Team wat disqualified on Jan. 19th, by the Regis- tration Committee of the A. A. U. for having played a game with the Fourth Separate Company Basket Ball team of Yonkers, N. Y., a team which was dl- ready under disqualification by the A. A. U. The rule under which this offense comes is anew one, having becn . passed on Jan. Ist, and the manage- ment of the Yale team thought that it had no bearing on College teams, and so played with an unregistered team. Secretary Sullivan has given orders that on the receipt of application for registration from the members of the Yale team they will be re-instated. a Winners of the Biblical Prize. The winners of the prize offered by the American Institute of Sacred Lit- erature have been. announced. The examination was held last March, and five Yale men competed.
