Permit an undergraduate, who has cheered the football team during his four years in College, to enter a protest against the distribution of tickets for the Yale game by the football management. Certainly undergraduate holders of season tickets have a right to expect better seats than those in the corners, on the ends, or on the Yale side.

The speech closes...
