...financial profit is derived for himself or anyone else, is dishonorable under the conditions by which he receives this privilege, and unfair to other Harvard men who are actually desirous of seeing the game but are prevented by lack of seats. Ample precautions are taken by the Association to detect such transactions and all because it is eminently fair that Harvard men be allowed to purchase the desirable seats at the original price...
