Ticket Speculation.

To the Editors of the Crimson:

The indifference of the Harvard football management in regard to the purchase by speculators of seats for the Yale game does not compare favorably with the zeal shown by the Yale management in keeping the Yale sections for the exclusive use of Yale men. The Yale News says: "It is a matter of honor that no tickets allotted to a Yale undergraduate be found in the hands of speculators." The Yale football management, in announcing the conditions of seat allotment for the Princeton game, says. "Each applicant is responsible for the tickets allotted him, and the management will print the names of hands of speculators. Any tickets which, for personal reasons, can not be used may be returned and will be accepted at face value, if received at the office of the Association before Nov. 24, at noon."

The Harvard management certainly can not now threaten to print the names of those who sell their seats, and probably can not offer to take back returned seats at face value. The only thing to be done is to remind undergraduates that by refusing to sell tickets to speculators they may prove themselves worthy of the rights they are claiming in the allotment of seats.
