College Doesn't Threaten

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

I regret the inaccurate and provocative headline (Bender Threatens Expulsion for Any Yale Game Vandals) which the CRIMSON used on its story about Yale game week-end rules which appeared Tuesday morning. The Dean's Office does not threaten students. It expects Harvard students to behave with a reasonable degree of intelligence and sense of responsibility to their college without being "threatened" like schoolboys, and we are rarley disappointed. We have had no trouble from misguided childish pranks by Harvard students at other colleges for many years and I see no reason to expect such trouble this year.

The story itself, based on questions asked by a CRIMSON reporter, was accurate enough, except for the statement about Saturday classes meeting at the pleasure of the instructor. By Faculty regulations instructors are expected to hold classes as usual on Saturday morning. W. J. Bender
