Therefore I think it is time for the rest of us to do likewise. I would suggest that any persons sO ‘4 addicted to tobacco that they cannot do without it seek quarters else- where.” “Though there has been no action by the student government board bar- ring women smokers,” a student re- siding in Green Hall said today, “if there has been any smoking in the hall since President, Judson’> mes- sage was read with Dean Talbot's comment, I have seen none of it.
