...Lampoon game is about the only honest-to-goodness tradition left in a University that has successfully tried to keep up with the ever-changing and ambitious spirit of America. Serene old Harvard Yard is now a thoroughfare for perambulator and high school traffic, as well as for non-stop flights from the Houses to the Science labs, and we have an eight year old House spirit "tradition".

But the outburst of strong and heartfelt opposition that has been shaking the Harvard legal world in the past few weeks should not go unheeded by the Dean. It is a sign for him to stop barnstorming about the country like a "Congressional rabble-rouser" issuing statements on strikes and the Supreme Court. It is time for the Dean to begin to think about the administrative problems that will call for his best efforts in September, and to give up the pleasure and excitement that...
