To the Editors of the Crimson:

The undersigned retiring directors of the Harvard Dining Association wish to express their unanimous indorsement of the candidacy of Mr. E. A. Gilmore, present director from the Law School, for president of the association. By reason of their personal contact with Mr. Gilmore in the work of the board, the directors have had opportunities, not afforded to members in general, to observe his special qualifications to give an energetic, business-like administration. They therefore take this method to speak favorably of his candidacy. On account of the changes which have recently been made in the rules of the Hall a systematic revision of the Articles of Association has become necessary. Acting entirely in their individual capacity the directors wish to express their belief that the executive ability shown by Mr. Gilmore highly qualifies him to direct this important work to the satisfaction both of the Corporation and students.
