Plead Not Guilty

To the Editor: Of course I like the ALUMNI MAGAZINE and have had it come to me often. However, your political squibs are gratuitous and at times odorous.

Eating Conditions

To the Editor On behalf of the parents in the class of 1907, I have completed an investigation and analysis of the Eating Situation at Dartmouth.

The conclusions are: (1) Just as at the Waldorf-Astoria, a student eating every meal every month at the best restaurant gets tired of having the same damn food all the time.

(2) The meals should be bigger.

(3) The portions should be larger.

(4) There should be no limit on extra helpings.

(5) The prices much lower, especially for boys who have used their food money for other purposes.

(6) Cash should not be required; and duns be taboo.

(7) The mother of each student should be present to cook and serve his favorite dishes.

(8) Fathers should earn more money.

(9) The home ice-box should be avail- able at all hours.

Respectfully submitted,

Minneapolis, Minn.,June 25, igoj.

We Don't Know

To the Editor: The Special ALUMNI MAGAZINE Commencement Issue of The Dartmouth reached me this morning. On turning to the editorial page I read "Mr. Ghost Comes To Town." Part way through this editorial I could hardly believe my eyes, and when I was finished I was absolutely dumbfounded. I have never heard anything emanating from Hanover so un-Dartmouth.

What in the world has happened which could bring forth such a childlike editorial?

[Note: Editorials which appeared in the special issue of The Dartmouth, sent to all subscribers to the ALUMNI MAGAZINE on June 17, were written and published by editors of the student paper.]
