Hand Vote

A show-of-hands vote found
a majority of the team members
favoring the plan.

As projected, the housing proposal
will be binding on all football
scholarship holders. Non scholarship
members of the varsity
will be invited to join their
teammates in the dorms on a
voluntary basis.

In detail, the plan will have
ten players—one suite—living in
each of six or seven of the Alderman
Road dorms. No dorm will
have more than one suite of
players.

Provisions of the plan allow
seniors on the team to live on
the Lawn. First-year men will
continue to be housed in the
McCormick Road dorms, as will
players who are counselors.

Players who are fraternity
members will be allowed to fulfill
their obligations to live in
fraternity houses during their
fourth year. Seniors on next
fall's squad who have already
fulfilled such obligations to their
fraternities must live in the dorms
this September.
