A Mass Meeting at Once.

Communication

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

I would like to make a suggestion in regard to the singing at the football games. Three years ago the last big Yale game was played. Three years ago the Class of 1920 entered Harvard. This means that there has grown up a body of undergraduates, who have yet to hear Harvard's songs sung at a football game against Yale. A great proportion of this undergraduate body do not even know the words of our songs, a fact only too clearly demonstrated at the Brown game.

This matter can be remedied by practice alone. We should have a mass meeting at once, so that the students body may familiarize themselves with the words. If this is done we will be able to practice and appear in a more creditable manner at the remaining games. If "Harvard Indifference" allows this matter to drag along until a week before the Princeton game, we are liable to receive a severe jolt, which will come too late. WILLIAM E. HARRIS '20.
