Who Said Pulchritude?

THE PRESS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

No one who saw the pulchritude exhibited about the Yale campus and its environs during the past three days can have any sympathy with a suspension of the junior promenade. If Harvard has seen fit to take that step, we think the significance should be looked into by the proper authorities at that institution. There was once a typical attitude supposedly engendered by the Harvard training called Harvard indifference. The suspension of the Harvard prom must be a renaissance in a peculiarly terrible form of that phenomenon. Young men who voluntarily forego the pleasure of merely gazing upon these annual migrations of beauty, not to mention mingling in them and conversing with their members, are, in our opinion, young men of decidedly poor judgement.
