CORPORATION EXPLAINS.

In reply to a letter from the Class Day Committee suggesting changes that they were will to make, President Eliot has answered for the committee of the Corporation saying that he feels no doubt that an adjustment of the present difficulties about the Tree can be reached. He asks that the Class Day Committee put their suggestions in writing and in definite form. These suggestions were substantially what appeared in this morning's CRIMSON,- to lower the flowers, to wear citizens clothes, to provide against combinations; and besides these a definite plan of seats must be drawn.

The postal cards will be sent out tomorrow. It is necessary to answer them at once.
