Frightened by a Harvard freshman who was admittedly threatening to "bite her over the telephone" (?), Miss Peggy Arnold, Radcliffe '42, got herself into such a position in a dormitory telephone booth yesterday afternoon, that she required aid from outside to get her out.
Miss Arnold climbed up on the four-foot stool inside the booth, and then coudn't get down. "There wasn't room to jump," she said. "If you've ever climbed on top of a stool in a Radcliffe telephone booth, you know why."
When she found out she couldn't get down, she simply did the logical thing and screamed till someone came and let her out.
Alan G. Slocombe '42, author of the cryptic "biting over the telephone" phrase, pooh-poohed the idea that Miss Arnold had been frightened. "I growled at her and I guess she was just being coy," he claimed.
