NOW GIRLS!

The Harvard Crimson has recently confessed in a burst of lyric journalism that "If you notice an extra sprig of parsley on your potatoes or a red cherry on your grapefruit, you will know that Harvard's first dictitian, Miss Ruth E. Trickett, is jazzing up the menus." (Should we inquire what the food used to be like in that most venerable of educational institutions?) This fact in itself is not at all startling, but the history of this dictitian is, on the contrary, very much so.

We quote the Crimson: "At Barnard College, where Miss Trickett was manager of dining halls until her four-year term expired this fall..."

Now, we distinctly remember having had a dictitian here at Bard by the same name, whose four-year term expired this fall! We don't like to say that the worthy daily in question is wrong, but...

Miss Trickett is quoted as having enjoyed the opportunities to "meet all the girls and find out what their likes and dislikes were."

"Well, girls...?" The Bardian, Bard College, N. Y.
