"Rarin' to Co," Smith Girls Await Jubilee Invitations

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

News of the Freshman Jubilee has penetrated to quarantined Northampton, and Smith girls have notified Harvard that with the excess energy stored up by being cooped in for months, they will not only be able to accept invitations, but "sure will be rarin' to go."

In a letter to Oliver D. Filley, Jr., Chairman of the Jubilee Committee, a group that signs itself the "Committee to Liberate Smith from Bondage and Deliver it into the Arms of Harvard" says, "We've heard tell of your Jubilee, and we hope you won't be scared to invite us."

Assuring Freshmen that the quarantine will be lifted by May 15, the girls express surprise that "big, strong, sturdy Haahvuhd men could be afraid of such things as mumps."
