CRIME TO FIT PUNISHMENT, DECLARE LAMPOONED MAIDS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

On Thursday morning the CRIMSON will perpetrate another radical innovation in college journalism when it will turn over its weekly Crime Column to a group of militant Radcliffe maids who are eager to clear themselves of certain slurs cast upon them by the ill-mannered editors of a wretched little local publication known as the Lampoon.

In its recent issue the Lampoon published an alleged joke, in which, over the legend, "The Only examination which a Radcliffe girl can't pass," was portrayed a young lady looking into a mirror.

Naturally Radcliffe students are distressed at this scurrilous, not to say libelous, attack upon their personal charms. And the CRIMSON which makes it part of its policy to assist damsels in distress at all times, and to get the Lampoon whenever possible, has given to indignant Radcliffe the Crime Column of this Thursday, in which to clear themselves in the eyes of the world.

Headquarters for the Crime Column this week are at Barnard Hall, Shephard Street. Contributions may be sent there or to the Crimson Building. In either case, they should be addressed, "CRIMSON Crime Column."
