THE HEARING TOMORROW

The hearing tomorrow, it is to be hoped, will be the final episode so far as the undergraduate body is concerned, of the so-called riot last Friday night.

It is, perhaps, needless to point out that the situation, not only for the students concerned, but for Harvard University itself, is one which requires delicate handling. Harvard, on the basis of the evidence published on Monday, and other facts, which are commen knowledge among the undergraduates who witnessed the proceedings of the police, appears to be in a strong position. Nothing could weaken that position more, nothing could he more prejudicial to the fortunes of the accused students, than any demonstration whatsoever among undergraduate spectators at the Hearing. The cases are in wholly capably hands, which will function more efficiently without the aid of a gallery. The latter's highest usefulness under the circumstances it the quiet attendance on classes.
