EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- I should like to ask, now that the old complaints about the library are flowing in, why we should not have all the use possible of the only reading room in college which is open in the evening? Why should the special reference library in United States history and political economy close at 9 o'clock? I do not suppose that the majority of the men who are to be found grinding there evening after evening retire at that hour. In fact I have heard a great many of them grumble at being obliged to leave...

...enjoyed by a number of upper-classmen and instructors. It is from Plato and Xenophon that we get all our knowledge about Socrates, his philosophy and his personality.

...piece of carelessness, if nothing worse, and was the subject of comment everywhere on the field where it occurred. We believe that these decisions lost us a game, won by superior team play. We believe that there is ground for winning a protest if properly presented. We do not like to believe that the referee had any other reasons for his decisions than carelessness and ignorance-at any rate till we have definite proofs of such accusations. We do not wish to accuse the Yale team of any unfairness in profiting by these decisions-they played their trick and profited...
