To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The difficulty experienced this year in obtaining a sufficient number of suitable waiters for Memorial Hall, and the noticeable decline in patronage, as compared with the days before the war, both suggest that some change in the dining system might be desirable for next year. The large number of students who find the university cafeteria satisfactory as well as the popularity of Holt's cafeteria, suggest that this change be the installation of the cafeteria system. As regards to the building, the writer has been assured by the manager of the dinning halls that Memorial Hall is well adapted to the requirements of the cafeteria principle.

In view of these conditions, it would seem that one possible solution of the dining problem would be the establishment of a really first class cafeteria dinning hall. There ought to be new hygienic tables and the equipment should be thoroughly good in every way. No doubt this would entail the investment of considerable now capital, but if efficiently operated on this plan, Memorial Hall ought to accommodate 1500 students, which would seem to warrant the expansion.

There is nothing incompatible between a table d'hote menu and cafeteria service. It would seem that some plan might be worked out by which meals might be served at a flat rate per week, or a la carts, according to the preference of the student. Various combinations of the two systems also suggest themselves. The present plan of club tables ought, if possible, to be preserved as that is no doubt an attraction to many men. F. C.
