Third, the Coop has openly abandoned its neutral position on the issue by encouraging students to purchase Cotrell & Leonard gowns. The most fiagrant example of this was in the April 11 Crimson, in which Argeros called the class committee's unanimous decision to recommend a boycott of Cotrell & Leonard "unfortunate." Argeros acted most improperly in commenting on this, or any other, decision regarding which cap and gown to order. If the Coop really intends to offer students a choice, then it should not prejudice this choice by such public comments. Mr. Argeros has revealed his pro-Cotrell & Leonard bias...

A Cleveland paper appeared with the startling announcement that the CRIMSON had accused the football coaches of teaching the men to violate the rules. The only basis in fact which this sensational article possessed was that the CRIMSON had printed in an editorial...

EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: As the CRIMSON declares that it never hesitates to berate for negligence, its example cannot but stir the rest of us to go and do likewise. And certainly if there ever was a fiagrant case of negligence of the proprieties, nay the decencies of civilized society, such negligence occurred Friday evening at Dr. Waldstei's lecture.
