Voluntarily forsaking more spiritual pursuits, abandoning study for a few precious hours, exhibiting some of the courage, dynamism, integrity, and faulty judgment that had led so many others before them on the same path, a group of Harvard and Radcliffe students last night attended the CRIMSON's first introductory competition meeting.

Spellbound, they heard the CRIMSON executives explain the ethos of the newspaper and the rigamarole of the respective boards. With the managing editor, they thrilled to the whir of the presses and restrained from feeding the Linotype men; with the editoial chairman, they aspired to literary greatness; with the photographic chairman, they sparkled at the prospects of infinite shutter clicking; with the business manager they talked business.

And when it was all over, what had they, besides a stomach full of free beer? Ah. Such things cannot be explained second-hand. Come to 14 Plympton St. at 7:30 tonight yourself and discover.
