DEAN CLAMPS DOWN ON BILLY ROSE'S BEVY OF BEAUTIES

Billy Rose made good on his offer of providing scantily clad girls to test Harvard students for Professor Sorokin's Genius Test; but official Harvard conservation turned thumbs down yesterday.

In reply to a request from the Committee of the Freshman Christmas Dance, Rose offered to "send up six beautiful girls who will sit there scantily clad for seventy-two hours, if you can match this with six bona-fide Harvard students prepared to resist these temptations."

The Dean's office, however, refused to sanction the plan, which Rose called "a national laugh," as too risque and not befitting a Harvard social affair. With their feature attraction annulled, the Dance Committee is attempting to engage some celebrity for the evening.
