Big Green Red, But Not So Red As Crimson, Decides Chi Trib

Dartmouth is not so "communistic" as Harvard, according to William Fulton, the Chicago Tribune's ace collegiate-Red-spotter.

In a recent series of articles designed to make the Green one Red, Fulton stated that the Dartmouth faculty is more "patriotic" than either Harvard or Columbia, which he also surveyed.

But Fulton was not at all pleased with Dartmouth's mental state. Targets for his attacks ranged from President John Sloan Dickey, ("globalist"), to the Dally Dartmouth ("spearheading radicalism").

Especially irksome to the visiting mid-Westerner was the Dartmouth's policy of having each outgoing editorial board elect its successor. This, said Fulton, "guarantees the continuity in radical policy."

Among his more routine complaints was an objection to the "Communist-affiliated" speakers in Darthmouth's Great Issues course. He pointed, further, to "a dozen faculty members" who had "leftist connections.
