History And Lit Students Protest Tutors' Dismissal

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

History and Literature concentrators will consolidate student protests against the dismissals of Professor John M. Potter '26 and Walter E. Houghton, both tutors in the Department, at a meeting at 7:30 o'clock tonight in the Kirkland Junior Common Room.

Robert Seldman '41 will explain the grounds for the protest in a preliminary report, and Lawrence Lader '41 will propose various solutions of the problem, which will include an attempt to set up a permanent undergraduate council on History and Lit to keep the Faculty in touch with concentrators' opinions.

After the meeting, these two reports will be enlarged and presented to President Conant on his return from Europe. Meanwhile, permanent officers will be elected to the council, and protest petitions will be circulated in Eliot and Leverett Houses, where the tutors reside.
