Committee on Admissions

By FRANCIS W. HATCH

1925

CHAIRMAN:

“Here’s a proposal that someone’s advanced — a broker named Smith as a resident member.”

COMMITTEE in chorus:

“Preposterous! No — not a Chinaman’s chance. The waiting list’s full till five years from December.”

1943

CHAIRMAN:

“Does someone know Smith — he’s a prospect for sure. If we work on him hard, I believe he might fall.”

COMMITTEE enthusiastically:

“Put him down on the list to receive the brochure. And each of us better go over and call!”
