Man's best friend has gone over to the other side!

Ah, but who can blame him for wanting to keep more attractive company?

In other actions arising from Openings
weekend incidents, Frank Blake of the Student
Stadium Committee reported that all flags,
banners, posters and pennants are to be banned
from Scott Stadium during athletic events, and
presumably from all other athletic events at the
University.

The ban was decided upon after an incident
at Saturday's football game during which
several black students asked that a Confederate
flag be put away, because it was offensive to
black players on the field and people in the
stands. A tense situation developed and one of
the ushers hired by the Athletic Department
called in several city policemen attending the
game.
