Moynihan's decision came within the time limit of two years for Faculty members on leave of absence. Under the rule, a Faculty member may not return to his job after more than two years' consecutive leave of absence.

It was not immediately clear whether Moynihan will resume his post as Director of the Joint Center for Urban Studies or simply become a Fellow of the Center.

And word was still unavailable on the plans of Harvard's other Administration member, Henry A. Kissinger '50.

Board Rate Up

Board costs for Harvard under-graduates will rise from $720 to $800, beginning this Fall. The increase will bring the cost of a year at Harvard to $3980-$2600 for tuition, $580 for room, and $800 for meals.

Charles G. Hurlbut, director of food services, said that increased maintenance costs and higher salaries for dining hall workers had made the in-crease necessary.

And Dean May said that board costs may rise even more due to a new food plan to be considered by the Committee on Houses and Undergraduate Life. Under the new plan, students would be allowed to sign up for less than 21 meals a week. But the increased cost of services might necessitate higher rates for those students who still wish 21 meals, May said.

Pats to Play Here

Harvard agreed July 7 to let the Boston Patriots, who were facing eviction from Boston for lack of a suitable stadium, play at Soldiers Field this season.

The Pats will move to a new $6.2 million stadium in Foxboro in the Fall of 1971.

The University's agreement came after a three-man committee headed by George F. Bennett '33, treasurer of the University, concluded that the Foxboro stadium would proceed on schedule. The committee had previously expressed fear that, once allowed into the Stadium, the Pats would prove difficult to dislodge.

The Pats played last year at Boston College's Alumni Stadium, but B. C. officials terminated the arrangement because of overcrowding of training and locker room facilities.

The pro team will play seven home games this season.

Poll Says End the War

A mail poll by Cambridge's congressman showed that city residents favor U. S. withdrawal from Vietnam by December and legalization of marijuana.

Eighth District Congressman Thomas P. O'Neill mailed a questionnaire to each of the 150,000 households in the district, which includes all or part of Allston, Brighton, Brookline, Charlestown, East Boston, Cambridge, and Somerville. Released results include most of the 20,000 responses. Cambridge's results showed that 88 per cent favored U. S. withdrawal from Vietnam according to a fixed timetable and 56 per cent favored legalization of marijuana. Other results showed that:

an overwhelming majority of voters everywhere in the district favors requiring the President to seek permission of Congress before committing U. S. troops to the defense of another country.

55 per cent of the voters in the district oppose President Nixon's proposal for an all-volunteer army.
