449

We learn with pleasure how quickly the Freshmen have become saturated with the spirit of things as they are. Although we gave up the idea of a complete vote in the upperclasses some time ago, we suspected that one term would not suffice to instill in the Freshmen a hearty contempt for polls and elections. But apparently our fears were groundless; since the class of 1925, faithfully following the example of its elders, has cast 449 ballots out of the 522 required for the justly famous sixty per cent.

So long as Freshmen classes show such regard for the mere unwritten customs of the college, we need not worry over the continuance of the old Harvard manners, or the growth of class interest as it is now understood.
