MARSHAL PETITIONS (CONTINUED)

The Mail

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The petition to reopen Marshal nominations is not the personal petition of one man. It is a petition drawn up by a group of members of the senior class of whom Mr. Keohane is only one. The question of the publicity and the deadline for the Class Marshal nominations was brought up before several House Masters, one of whom arranged an interview with the Deans. To clarify the situation, the Deans recommended an appeal through the democratic process of petition. Acting on this advice, we set up the mechanics of the petition--stating the sole considerations of "inadequate publicity" and "unfortunate timing." On these grounds, we were able to collect about 300 signatures of dissatisfied seniors before the issue was completely clouded by yesterday's letter claiming that it is a personal petition.
