Adams House last night clamped down on its inter-House dining trade by imposing a nightly quota of 25 guests.
The new limit, previously unannounced, went into effect about 6 p.m. after the first 25 guests had filed past the check-in desk. Swarms of evening Adams visitors were surprised by the ruling, which forced them to leave the House and return to their own dining halls.
Quota "Very Unfortunate"
David M. Little '18, Master of Adams House, last night termed the quota "very unfortunate."
"Figures will show that we feed more inter-House people than all the other House put together," Little said. The total pressure exerted by some 400 residents, 75 non-residents, and close to 70 nightly visitors is too great for the House to bear, he stated.
"A number of our own men couldn't find seats at times," Little explained. "It's a tough break, but as soon as we get over the peak lead, we'll gladly go back to unlimited inter-House."
