Drati Shostakovich will not be allowed to speak on the grounds of Yale University, President Charles Seymour announced yesterday.
A local committee of the Council of Arts, Sciences, and Professions, which Harvard Observatory Director Harlow Shapley heads, had planned a meeting at Yale tomorrow night to be addressed by the Soviet composer and fellow delegates to the Cultural and Scientific Conference for World Peace.

At Harvard the Liberal Union said last night it has not yet received any answer to its Sunday telegram to Shostakovich inviting him to speak here in April.
