Communications.

DEAR EDITORS CRIMSON. - One of the items in your issue of yesterday seems to refer to my former communication to you. Excuse me if I say that the comments in that item are irrelevant; I might even put a harsher word and call them flippant. While suggesting that upperclassmen invite freshmen to their rooms, I made no mention of lunch or any other kind of entertainment, as I know well that most of us demand no more than that we should be allowed to mingle on terms of equality with the older fellows. I am sure that we freshmen are always glad to have any junior or senior (except subscription fiends, drop in on us, and if we have any good things we are willing to share them. Now why is not this feeling reciprocated? We have punches in the beginning of the year, why are none ever given to us? Why are we treated as if we were children, while those only a year or two ahead of us are men? A satisfactory answer to these questions would greatly oblige.

HOPEEUL, '90.
