Meeting of the Overseers.

The sub-committee of the Governing Committee of the Board of Overseers met Wednesday evening at the Somerset Club. The Presidents of the fout classes had been invited to attend this meeting in order that the Overseers might ascertain more fully the feeling of the undergraduates in regard to the proposals made at the last meeting of the Board. The meeting was entirely unofficial and was held simply with the view of discovering how much truth there is in the articles which have recently been published, and also of discovering whether or not the tendency of the undergraduates in regard to the matter of attending recitations and chapel is in the right direction. The idea was suggested of making all recitations of the freshman year compulsory but this course was objected to on the ground that it would only delay the students entire freedom until the sophomore year, which would not remedy the supposed evil in the least.
