Something must be done to
suppress college rowdyism. The
colleges and universities are
growing to be a terror to the
communities in which they are
located. Numbers of young
rowdies go about the streets
with savage yells; different class
es have cane rushes and fights
that are dangerous to the life
and limb of those who engage
in them. 1t required fifteen
policemen last week to suppress
a riot of Yale students.
