WE publish elsewhere a communication from the president of the Dining Association in reply to the editorial in yesterday's CRIMSON. Apparently the disturbances, which have become so frequent of late, will be stopped, even if radical measures must be adopted. If the men refuse to look at the matter in the right light and persist in this deplorable custom of hissing and stamping, there is but one course of action - that is to close the gallery to visitors. It does not reflect much credit on the better side of a man's nature, if, after making a reasonable appeal to him not to abuse a privilege, one has to resort to the only alternative, that of taking it from him. In this case, however, he is depriving not himself alone, but many others a great deal worthier than he. Yet unless the better element in Memorial Hall can succeed in overcoming this objectionable tendency on the part of the others, prohibitory measures must be adopted. The warning of what may happen ought to be sufficient to guarantee that there will be no further abuse of the present privileges. If it is not, however, we can safely say, that the threat of closing the gallery will not be found to be a hoax, and that the Board of Directors will adopt that or any other measure that may seem necessary to accomplish their purpose.
