ADMITTING FRESHMEN TO THE TREE.

TO THE EDITORS OF THE CRIMSON:-

BEFORE the arrangements for Class Day have been entirely made I wish to call the attention of the Committee to one matter, which caused a good deal of complaint last year, and which many hope to see changed this year: I mean the excluding of Freshmen from the exercises around the tree. The reason given for this exclusion last year was that there was not room enough for them, but upper-classmen who were there have told me that there would have been plenty of room. It seems to me that it is very hard to prevent the Freshman class from taking part with the others in such an interesting exercise as this, and I hope that the Committee will endeavor to arrange it this year so that all may be admitted.
