Sanders Theater has caused nothing but trouble in the past two years. Two active dramatic clubs, a rejuvenated band, two orchestras, and the Glee Club-Choral Society have wrangled for space in the ancient auditorium, while Dean Watson and the Corporation office have split the handling of the conflicting requests...
...College, property, authorization for its use must come from the Corporation office. All schools except the College file such applications through their Dean's offices.

Apparently aroused, the Crimson threatened several more times until it ran out of gas in the middle of the last-quarter...
