In the face of creeping mergerism, at least, one department of the University has held its its ground. Despite the token offering of coupons to Cliffies this fall, co-eds were turned away en masse last week when they attempted to transfer No. 29 for the opportunity to see Bill Bradley and his Princeton cohorts in action.

Disgruntled Cliffies argue that unless they are welcomed to events such as the Princeton basketball fray, they cannot be expected to cultivate any enthusiasm for less spectacular exhibitions. However, the IAB has only 1500 seats, and when Bradley comes to town, there isn't enough room even for the men. Miss Paget, Coordinator of Recreational Activities for Radcliffe, admits that she would give priority to women undergraduates if comparable circumstances obtained at a Radcliffe event.

But the Harvard Athletic Association is not giving Cliffies even second priority. "Certainly we'll recognize the equal status of the Cliffies--as soon as we've served the Harvard undergrads," claims F.O. Lunden, Ticket Manager for the Athletic Association. But, in reality, Radcliffe students are not served until Harvard students, faculty, press and dates are satisfied. The coupon intended to encourage Radcliffe representation at sports events and to destigmatize non-date spectatorship. Unless Cliffies are served before the dates of Harvard men, these goals will never goals will never be reached.
