To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The display of rude conduct at Randall Hall borders almost on rowdyism. Randall Hall is, I think, the only place where Harvard men will at times not be regarded as gentlemen. Why such a state of affairs should exist the writer cannot explain.

Most of the disturbances are caused by visitors. Whether these deem it unnecessary to act as gentlemen or whether few gentlemen are included among the visitors, it is hard to say; but it is seldom that a visitor takes off his hat. The writer would suggest that a placard be posted requesting visitors to remove their hats. With this source of disturbance eliminated, the disgraceful conduct should cease at once. The writer hopes that this suggestion will be considered by the governing board of Randall Hall. 1908.
