Maids to Alternate Sundays Under New HUERA Set-Up

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Maids throughout the University will hereafter enjoy a holiday every other Sunday. The new arrangement is the result of an agreement reached last week between the Harvard University Employees' Representative Association and the University.

The maids have been divided into two sections, which work on alternate Sundays. Each woman does the work of two, receives a free Sunday, and suffers no reduction in salary.

John Biggar, manager of the Caretaking and Real Estate Department, expressed University approval of the arrangement. "It will give the maids a chance to be at home with their husbands, and it will work no hardship upon the students," he asserted.
