To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

In the two years of its existence, a number of traditions have already grown up about the Union and it is against one of these that I wish to protest.

In some way, the unwritten law discouraging Freshmen from smoking pipes and cigars on the street, seems to have been extended to include the Union. This, I think, is a mistake. The success of the Union depends, in the last analysis, upon succeeding Freshman classes, and if they approach the Club in the right spirit, and can be made to feel that it is their home as well as that of all other Harvard men, they will make the Union an even greater success than it has been heretofore. Therefore, I think that, in the Union, all class as well as other distinctions should be relaxed and Freshmen given the same privileges as upper classmen. No one will appreciate this more than the Freshmen themselves, and I believe that we will be recompensed a hundred fold for this, after all, trivial concession. SENIOR.
