(Ed. Note--The Crimson does not necessarily endorse opinions expressed in printed communications. No attention will be a paid to anonymous letters and only under special conditions, at the request of the writer, will names be withheld.

To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

At last an answer has been given to the question of the ancient poet; "Quis custodiat ipsos custodes?" The tutors are to watch over the undergraduates, but over the tutors watches the CRIMSON; with that mingled love and chastisement which we have been taught to consider characteristic only of a somewhat higher power. Last week the tutors were rebuked for their table-manners. Today they are the objects of a pity which, however sublime in its intent, may seem a trifle ridiculous when conferred without intelligence. Clearly, if any tutor be heard to cry, "what must I do to be saved?" we must reply, "Inquire of the CRIMSON." Alston H. Chase '27.
