To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

While I was walking down by the rivet yesterday I saw something which gave me an idea I think your readers might be interested in. Of course I don't know much about Harvard or Cambridge yet, but it seems to me that this scheme would be pretty impressive if it could be carried through.

You probably have noticed just beyond Smith Hall toward the bridge going over to the Stadium two tall smoke stacks, 'It seems to me that. If we won the Yale game, or perhaps the Dartmouth game, since we play Yale in New Haven this year a good way to cerebrate would be dome quite simply by stringing a line of red flags across between the stacks. Everybody could see it coming back from the Stadium, and I think it would be an excellent symbol of the ascendancy of Harvard we all hope to see this fall.

I suppose that this would cost quite a lot, but perhaps the H. A. A. would pay for part of it, and I'm sure that a lot of the fellows here in the Freshman class would be glad to contribute for the rest.

Hoping that you will find this idea good enough to deserve a little space in your columns, I am, Sincerely yours,   A Freshman   (Name withheld by request).
