...nominal sum to help meet the necessary expenses is charged for the tickets does not make it less true that those into whose hands Yard tickets legitimately come are really guests of the Senior Class. In its appeal on another page, the 1913 Class Day Committee generously gives no harsher name than "mere carelessness" to those who thus offend. To us it seems that the public opinion of the University would give a less mild epithet to men who disregard the whole intent and purpose of the occasion as implied in the official title "Class...

...Herald either cannot or will not understand the case as it is. I don't see that it matters at all whether it does or not.
