We are greatly pleased to learn that the Yale and Harvard committees have decided to lay Harvard's proposition for a dual league before the Yale students. Such action has been hoped for during the long pause between the last two meetings. The delay has been borne impatiently, perhaps, but with the feeling that the Harvard committee were doing at in their power to purify athletics and benefit their college. It is fortunate that the temporary disagreement with the Yale committee was not so serious as to check all action. The decision reached on Saturday will secure consideration of the subject of a dual league by Yale men in such a form that their opinions can be definitely found out. We are inclined to believe that they favor a dual league with Harvard. If they do, and also favor purity in athletics they will undoubtedly accept Harvard's proposition. We believe that such a step would greatly benefit the colleges and satisfactorily solve the doubts and difficulties that now surround the positions of both.
