EDITOR BUSINESS MANAGER harry Ancona Stephen \Vursh dilorials . . . A Student Newspaper Scarlet & Black is the student newspaper of Grinnell College. It is written to be read by Grinnell students, and all others who read it must bear this in mind. Feature topics and editorial positions may not meet with the reader’s approval, but the responsibility of the paper will not be questioned. Scarlet {it Black intends to be bound by relevancy, taste, credibility and law, but by nothing else. A good paper must have inner discipline rather than an imposed outer harness. Scarlet & Black may cause anger or pleasure, but it will be consistent in its awareness of its responsmility to provide Grinnell stu- dents with accurate and relevant news and comment. Women's Hours The elimination of women’s hours was long awaited, and is a welcome liberalization of college rules.

There will he ii short meeting tor new and returning stu- dents interested in working tor the 5&3 in any capacity. The meeting will be held Sunday at 2:15 p.m. in the 5&3 5 (north end oi the Forum basement).
