Yale Picket

When strikers picketed a New Haven foundry last fortnight, a Yale senior named Lawrence Hill marched down to help. As secretary of Yale's chapter of the pinko National Student's League, Picketer Hill was putting his social idealism into rough & tumble practice. For his pains a policeman named Enright thwacked Yaleman Hill on the head, arrested him.

Student Leaguer William Gordon. 21, promptly went looking for witnesses for Hill, only to become involved with a policeman named Hogan. Last week a New Haven judge fined Yaleman Gordon $25, Yaleman Hill $60 for breaking the peace.

Declared Dean Clarence Whittlesey Mendell: "Yale College does not approve of the participation of undergraduates in disputes outside the College about which they are not informed."

The Yale Daily News last week front-paged the following notice: "Anyone wishing to contribute toward a Christmas dinner for Constables Enright and Hogan and their families may do so by mailing contributions to Drawer 2502A, Yale Station. Enright and Hogan have figured in curtailing of disorderly activities of Communists connected with the University."
