Ivy League Axes NCAA Participation Over 1.6 Rule
Princeton's F Goheen said the eight Ivy League schools will refuse NCAA sponsored events after the NCAA declared Penn and Yale ineligible for such events under the 1.6 academic standard. The move follows two months of failed negotiations, and Penn Relays and school schedules are not affected.

Outdoor Misadventures Highlight Deer Season Warnings
In Missouri and across the South, hunters misidentify targets, transporting misdeeds from deer season antics. A Wheeler Reservoir incident shows a hunter firing at seagulls while thinking ducks, amid calls for stricter licensing and self discipline to curb dangers and waste. The North Alabama Coon Hunters Assoc plans a Wheeler Refuge field trial with KC rules, inviting public attendance. Domestic cats and feral felines threaten songbirds, while crippling losses from waterfowl hunts on Wheeler Refuge reach 314 geese and 176 ducks.
