An "amicable settlement" has been reached in a dispute over which 175 of the 285 residents of Yale's Berkeley College boycotted an evening meal two weeks ago, Robert P. Anderson Jr., a member of the student committee studying the problem, announced last night.

The dispute arose because of what students termed "inedible" food and poor service, reportedly the fault of Miss Helen Andrews, Berkeley's dietician.

Anderson reported that Worcestershire and A-1 sauces had been provided to make the food more palatable, and the serving line had been rerouted to break a serious bottleneck at the milk counter. He added, however, that nothing could be done about Miss Andrews' "condescending attitude" towards students, however.
