EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON.-Your correspondent of Tuesday, who signs himself "A Member of the Historical Society," ends his communication by saying that "whatever can be done to retain the seats in Sever for the grown up people shall be done." It was painfully evident to every student who came to the last lecture later than a quarter past seven, that this rule had not been enforced, unless, indeed, we class the students themselves as infants.

This will necessitate the surrendering of the valuable championship cup, which has been held by Harvard for several years past, and will diminish or destroy our chance for its final possession. There are a number of other lesser sports which will be interfered with...
