ONE PROBLEM LESS

Brooks House and the Commuters' Committee have achieved complete success as the result of persistent and intelligent effort; University Hall has also cooperated, ponderously yet conscientiously. The new Center in Dudley Hall should end all agitation for the admission of commuters to the Houses by providing pleasant and comfortable quarters for after-class activity. Unfortunately there will be no library facilities, yet this condition is patently irremediable under present circumstances. On the whole, therefore, one of the major topics of controversy has been very gracefully removed from the University agenda.
