To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

An observer in the Freshman Dining Halls these long spring evenings notes that while the doors open at 5.30 very few men avail themselves of the opportunity of eating until six o'clock or after. Statistics show that in one dormitory less than 30 percent eat in the first hour. The peak is reached at 6.59 P. M.

This is undoubtedly due to the fact that Daylight Saving keeps would-be athletes, particularly crew and baseball men, out working under zealous coaches until just the hour the doors close. Might it not be arranged with Mr. Roy L. Westcott, Superintendent of the Freshman Dining Halls, to change the hours of the evening meal from 5.30-7.00 to 6.00-7.30 P. M. without seriously disarranging the routine? Respectfully Yours,   F. S. Cheever '32.
