Widener Co-education Ends As 'Cliffegirls Go to Church

Holding hands across the table and rubbing knees underneath in the 'Cliffedwellers wing of the Widener Reading Room came to an unceremonius end yesterday when the lady bookworms departed for the basement of Memorial Church where a new study and powder room has been constructed for them.

The avowed purpose of the project was to make it unnecessary for the girls to return to Shepard Street between classes and to allow more space for the mobs in Widener. Traditional Radcliffe deprecators will, of course, welcome the change, and an occasional queen walking down the aisle from the book desk will no longer waste a hundred man-hours of studious effort at every trip for a book.
