JUST BE PATIENT, GIRLS

The value of a Harvard education is scheduled to take a big jump.

Edward E. Reynolds, vice president of the university, says Harvard may not be able to afford maid service for dormitorles next year if wage scales continue to go up. This would compel students to make their own beds. If the inflationary spiral isn't checked, it's logical to expect that the university will project this policy into other fields. Once a Harvard man has been taught to make his own bed it's a short step to teach him to vacuum the rugs and sweep the corriders. The result inevitably will be a rush of girls to marry Harvard men, a new breed of intellectuals not only ornamental to the drawing room but gosh-darned handy at helping with the housework. --from the Logan (Utah) Herald-Journal, November 29
