HARVARD.

cambridge. Mass, Nov 1i.-There has long been
'ee.ins among many Harvard that the pres
emf method OF electng the Athletic Committee is
not representative enough. and has not produced
ehure!y satisfactory results To be concrete many
nave felt that In many cases there have been men
on the committee who were not as well qualified
Tor the position as other undergraduates who
would have been elected at mass-meetns. Pro-
lessor HOLLIS answers TO this In the last number OF
The Harvard Monthly:
HOW change IN the method OF electins the
committee would AFFECT this (the eection) does not
appear There is no reason TO think that body
OF students In massmeeting would exercise better
judgment than the small body of who now
select the committee. In fact. the weight OF argu-
ment is all the other way mass-meetng is very
society, and in most cases the slate would be ar
ranged beforehand"
Still, even granting that this may be true, II
seems that the small body o. students who now
sentati.A As ii is now the Cycling Association
