"Based on the consensus of those commenting on this issue, the College will ban the use of charged gores and charged gussets, matching the ban on charged tierces. Uncharged gores, gussets and tierces will continue to be registerable. Any charged gores or gussets currently pending at Laurel will be processed as having been 'in the pipeline' before the ban went into effect. Therefore, after March 1, 1992, we will no longer register charged gores or gussets." (CL 12/21/91 p.2).
