To the Editors of the Crimson:

As a solution to the question of how to dispose equably of the tickets to our athletic games where the demand for tickets exceeds the supply, I should like to offer the following plan:

For clearness in illustrating the plan I will use the dates and figures from this year's Spring field game.

1st. To each graduate from whom an individual request by letter is received (signed with his own name and class) between Nov. 1st and 15th, send not more than two tickets. Not over 500 tickets to be thus disposed of, and these tickets to be for the sections each side of and next to the centre sections.

2nd a. To each member of the eleven and second eleven, substitutes, etc., allow ten tickets; aggregating 300 tickets.

b. To each member of the freshman eleven, substitutes, etc., allow four tickets; aggregating 75 tickets.

c. To each member of other class elevens (not entitled to tickets under "a") allow two tickets; aggregating 100 tickets.

8. To each member of the Faculty applying allow two tickets; aggregating 50 tickets. (Tickets under 2 and 3 to be in centre sections.)

3. The Saturday before the game let 50 tickets from each section be sold at an auction at which only graduates and undergraduates are to be allowed to bid and the amount bid to be a premium for choice. Only four tickets to each person.

5. The Monday before the game all tickets, 2000 in number, (including all tickets, if any, remaining unsold under 1, 2, 3 and 4) are to be put on sale as follows: Tickets to be sold only to graduates and undergraduates applying in person. No one having received tickets under 2a to be allowed to buy, only four tickets to be sold to any one person without an order, and no order to be good for more than six, or to be given after the sale opens.

6. The next day all tickets remaining unsold to be sold to any one in any quantities.

The advantages of this plan would be that graduates living at a distance would have a chance to procure tickets.

The members of the Faculty and all members of the various elevens would be well provided for.

The auction of a limited number of tickets would supply with tickets those men who now are willing to pay a speculator from $2.00 to $4.00 premium per ticket, and the foot ball treasury would have the premium instead of the speculator. Last but not least as many as 2000 reserved tickets would be put on sale as now and at least 400 men would be enabled to procure from four to six tickets apiece.
