EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- I noticed with some surprise a communication in your columns of Wednesday from a freshman, criticising the stand taken by " '89" in regard to proctors. As far as I have been able to judge, most of the upper-classmen agree with " '89" that these gentlemen sometimes do make nuisances of themselves. And it seems to me that our little friend "Adolphus" has laid open to severe criticism not only himself but the class which he claims to represent. In the first place I should like to ask how many college examinations our friend has gone through in the course of his long experience? Is he any exception to the rule that all school boys just out of leading-strings are beyond noticing anything in their first examination but their own chance of getting an A plus? Does the interesting fact that he would read manuscripts not addressed to him, make such an act justifiable? By what power does he voice the sentiments of the majority in college, when he probably does not know more than twenty or thirty men-and those men in his own class? It seems to me that it would be far more fitting for this miniature Solomon to wait until he becomes an upper-classman, before he makes such childish and impertinent attacks upon those who probably know more about college affairs than he does. Let us hope that "Adolphus" will subside and not reflect discredit on his class by such a puerile display of inanity.
