Yale Notes.

The members of the New Yale University Council for the next year have been announced by President Hadley as follows: Sixteen members of the faculty, four of them from the academic department, three from the scientific school, two each from the law, medical and divinity schools, and one each from the graduate and art schools and from the musical department.

Sixty-six men are now entitled to wear the university "Y," nineteen having won it in football, seven in baseball, thirteen in rowing, eighteen in track athletics, eight in bicycle racing, and one in the gymnasium, D. R. Francis '00, C. T. Dudley '00 S. and F. G. Brown '01 have won "Y's" in more than one branch of athletics.

The Yale Club of New York will give a dinner tonight at Sherry's in honor of President Hadley. Invitations have been sent to prominent Yale men throughout the country, and among the speakers will be Judge Howland and Hon. Chauncey M. Depew.

The first number of a new annual college publication, the "Yale University Calendar," will be issued that month. It will contain fifty-three half-tone illustrations, including pictures of all the university buildings, society houses, athletic teams and their captain.

In preparation for the Harvard and Princeton debates next spring, the Yale Debating Association will give interclub debating a much more prominent place than heretofore. As far as possible dates have been made for numerous interclub debates in order that the work may be systematized. The debates will also be made as public as possible, not only to make it more worth while to be a representative of a team, but also to give the men more assurance when they speak before large audience. Formality in choosing the men will widen the interest in the clubs. These changes from the policy pursued in previous years are so radical, that a decided revival in debating is expected.
