Radcliffe girls may end up scraping dishes someday, but they won't do it before they have to.
Cliffies' lack of interest in kitchenwork was discovered from the meager response to an ad recruiting Cliffies as dining hall workers in the Harvard Houses. The ad first ran in the Calendar in mid-October.
Miss Anita Glenn of the Harvard Financial Aid Office said that the two girls who responded to the ad became disenchanted when they discovered the work would involve scraping dishes.
"I didn't expect many Radcliffe girls to want to work in Harvard dining halls because it's not really a glamorous job," Miss Glenn said yesterday.
John P. Reardon Jr., director of Student Employment,, said that he "would have been surprised if large numbers of girls had decided they wanted to work in the dining halls, considering the much more interesting jobs available."
"We would have to draft girls as freshmen to work in the dining halls--before they knew of other opportunities," he added.
Students from schools other than Radcliffe will fill the extra jobs that led to he requests by Harvard dining halls for Cliffies, Reardon said.
