Harvard Dancer In Annex Group

The little known fact that Harvard students can join Radcliffe organizations has come to life recently in the controversy over the 'Cliffe Dance Group's efforts to separate itself from the Radcliffe Athletic Association.

John C. Holden, '60, business manager, is an active member of the group, headed by Ruth Emerson, '58. He has "encountered no resistance" from either Harvard or Radcliffe to his participation.

The advantages and disadvantages of independence for the group were discussed at a meeting of the AA Monday night where Ann Brace '58, president of the AA observed that AA supervision would provide free publicity, funds taken from AA dues, and readily available practice space.

On the other hand, Miss Emerson believes that independence would be in keeping with the Dance Group's existence as "an art group rather than an athletic group." She does not think that the group will suffer from being independent. The Radcliffe SGA will decide the future status of the group.
