Since that time I have heard a rumor given in explanation of this sudden sale of seats-namely, that before the seats were put on public sale at four o'clock on Saturday, a very large number of the seats had been disposed of by the manager in advance sale to private persons, as, for example, a large block of seats reserved for the Somerset Club of Boston, and a block of 110 seats sold to a student for himself and friends...
...have heard a great deal of grumbling on the part of the students in regard to the changes in the Elective Pamphlet, and their discontent seems justifiable.
