ONLOOKERS
Much unfavorable criticism has been directed it the cadet corps
the manner in which some of its members hang'on the outside of
the buildgigs «nd look in the windows at the dances held in the mess
hall. The largest portion of the criticism comea'lrom visitors who are
not accustomed to taking the actions Of the corps lightly and who have
got learned te overlook many of our lesser evils.
A hundred or so figures lined up before the windows with about
as many more on the ground waiting their chances to join the gallery
daee not form a very pleasing sight nor does It add ‘to the comfort of
the dancers However, the strongest protest comes from visiting girls
who find <it both obnoxious and embarasslng to have a group of un
known judges make remarks concerning their pulchritude and dancing
ability from ths darkness outside of the windews and such a practice
on the part of the cadets can be called nothing less than ungentlemaaly.
