HARVARD MAY BE FORCED TO DIAL "ELI" ON TELEPHONES

Plans by the Telephone company to force all Harvard men to dial "ELI" came to light yesterday with the news that a new exchange is to be formed covering the vicinity of Harvard Square. Since the exchange will be designated "Eliot" in honor of the late President Eliot, and since a dial system will probably be installed in the near future, the first three letters of the word will be used.

High officials of the University reserved comment on the naming of the new exchange last night. It is known that when the House were being built the authorities in University Hall intervened at the last moment to prevent the trade-mark "Yale" from appearing on the locks.
