COMMUTERS RALLY FOR COOPERATION TO 'COMMON GOAL'

Decision Will Be Made on Question of Brooks House Commuter Housing at Cabinet Meeting Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Weeks of negotiation have suddenly come to a head with the news that not only will the Phillips Brooks House Cabinet receive the Commuters' Committee report tonight and make public its own decision on the issue, but that also the day-students have begun organizing on their own behalf.

A committee of which Herbert D. Tobin '35 is chairman and Sigmund Worner '36 secretary has been formed to organize a "Harvard Commuters' Association" designed "to stimulate the interest of the commuting students in cultural activities and college life, to promote a fraternal and intellectual spirit among the commuters, and to contribute to the welfare of the University."

Cooperation With Officials

The committee carefully stated, in an article written by Joseph D. Golden '37, one of its members, that "the spirit of this group will be one of intelligent and rational cooperation with the University toward a common goal, and will earnestly avoid any antagonistic attitude toward the College authorities."

In the meantime the special Investigating Committee appointed by Brooks House to survey the non-resident question has completed its report and will submit it to the Brooks House Cabinet tonight when that body assembles to make its momentous and final decision on the question of whether or not to allow the commuters the use of Brooks House in future years.

After the Cabinet has read the report the document will go to Dean Hanford and will be published in the CRIMSON for either Wednesday or Thursday.
