Protest from Senior Candidates

Communications

[We invite all men in the University to submit communications on subjects of timely interest.]

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The undersigned members of the class of 1910 wish to express their disapproval of the methods employed in the recent Senior elections. These we believe were largely political and as such have no place in a university community.

Rather than apparently to countenance these methods, our first thought was to withdraw our names from the nominations for office. Such action we feel would serve as a just protest against political organization, and as a reminder to future classes that elections at Harvard should be based, not upon class or social distinctions, but upon proven worth and merit alone.

Records of former disrupted classes, however, prove the necessity of retaining class unity at all cost. This we feel would be endangered if the course above mentioned were resorted to. And we allow our names to appear in the list of nominees solely in the hope that we may do something to preserve the unity of the class of 1910. G. G. BROWNE.   F. H. COOKE.   J. F. DAY.   G. S.
