Polio Quarantine Lifted at Smith

Smith College, increasingly aware of keen academic competition from Radcliffe and Wellesley, has decided to allow its students to use the Harvard library.

For the Smith girls, quarantined since the start of the term because of polio in western Massachusetts, have fallen so far behind their sister schools, officals of the college have decided to lift the ban. Even the discovery of three suspected cases of polio at nearby Amherst, and the continuation of quarantines there and at Mt. Holyoke did not influence the decision.

As a result, the first detachment of Smith scholars will arrive in Cambridge today, equipped to spend the afternoon in Widner.
