A newly formed committee of the faculty for further censorship of student undertakings has recently been formed. It has nothing to do with athletics or the athletic committee, but apparently has powers fully as absolute. To this committee the manager of the Hasty Pudding Theatricals in aid of the university crew, applied for permission to sell tickets for the New York performances publicly in that city, i. e. at certain well known and reputable places. This request was not granted, and the faculty committee even refused to allow the posting of notices in Cambridge stores stating that the theatricals would be given.

In the light of certain circumstances, this action seems very peculiar. The Glee Club and Pierian Sodality are allowed not only to advertise their concerts and the sale of tickets to these, but also to have that sale take place at a store not connected officially with the college. Why such permission should be granted to one club and not to another is what the manager wants to find out.

The club will have to resort to the method pursued by '84 in order to dispose of their tickets for the performances in New York. A certain number of ladies, prominent in the society of New York city, have kindly consented to act as patronesses of the club entertainment. What tickets remain after the sale here in Cambridge, can be obtained by applying to them. This in some respects, is better than a public sale in New York, for the influence of these ladies, ought to insure a ready disposal of all the remaining tickets for both nights. The only trouble is that this method imposes a considerable task upon the ladies who consent to act as patronesses. In order that tickets bought in New York may not be inferior to those bought here, none of the seats will be reserved.
