Dauntless Outing Club Can't Raise Nine to Play 'Cliffe

The Radcliffe girl was obviously disappointed. She called to say that the Harvard Outing Club had challenged Radcliffe to a softball game, to be played Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and now the HOC was backing out. After 20 'Cliffedwellers, including most of the Garden Street regulars who trounced Pembroke, had signed to play, the Outing Club was reported to have backed out of its challenge because its members were busy studying for finals.

But George J. Bell '48, of the HOC, said last night, "There may be a game yet." He added patronizingly that the men will bat left-handed and run backwards, if they play at all. Radcliffe, anxious to repeat on the diamond their supremacy-of-the-sex demonstration in last year's crew race, said the teams were to meet in the 'Cliffe quad and carry on from there.
