Students at Harvard are clamoring for a "sleeping room," where they can catch brief naps between classes. This moved idea is not their own. They borrowed it from Radcliffe, where the girls have had such a haven of respite for goodness knows how long.

The trouble in that the students at Radcliffe have ignored or boycotted the sleeping room at Longfellow Hall so insistently, that the Student Council is hard put to it to make the room popular. Girls at Radcliffe apparently, find no difficulty at all in taking classes as they come no matter how arduous the courses may be so they refused to sleep betweenwhiles.

All of which would appear to throw an invidious light upon the clamor across the street at Harvard. Can't the boys take it? Or is this merely a new item to add to the data in the old debate about the weaker sex? --The Boston GLOBE Dec 18
