EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- In your editorial yesterday you spoke of the sign-boards which are such ancient landmarks on Jarvis Field. I should like, if you will permit me, to emphasize your words, and, indeed, to add to them a little. Anyone who has been much on Jarvis during the foot-ball practice knows what an unmitigated nuisance the "American youth"- or in other words-Cambridge muckers, make of themselves, by continually rushing in and out among the spectators, yelling and hooting and making themselves generally obnoxious to everybody. These atoms of brass even go so far as frequently to run across the foot-ball field, to the annoyance of the players and the disgust of the spectators. Now-as they well know-these embyro ruffains have no business whatever to cross the fence which bounds Jarvis on its four sides. The (college) law says so, and if the law were only like those of the Medes and Persians, we should not be continually bothered by these infantile pests. Why cannot something be done, either by the Athletic or the Foot-Ball Association, to put a stop to the nuisance? It seems strange, indeed, that Harvard students cannot assert their rights even in the face of so strong an opposition as that of the almighty and omnipresent Cambridge mucker!

REFORMER.
