"For", says Dean Nichols, "judgement, tact, good taste, discretion--all qualities essential to editorial columns are the qualities which develop only with age and experience. And it is not surprising that young men just turning twenty occasionally err in these respects. The unfortunate aspect of the situation is that in this day of far flung publicity those errors are flung broadeast through the country. And the graduates humiliated and ashamed and, perhaps...
