Princeton Bicker Attains Objective

By Peter J. Rothenberg, Special to the CRIMSON

PRINCETON, N.J.--The achievement Saturday night of a "natural one hundred per cent" brought to a successful conclusion Princeton's quietest, calmest Bicker in several years.

At the beginning of Open House Night Saturday, approximately 20 sophomores were considered "in trouble," without definite first-list bids to any eating clubs. This list of potential "hundred percenters" was gradually pared down, as each man was accepted in one of the clubs. Early yesterday morning, after a check of the club rolls aaginst a master class list, every sophomore was accounted for, and one hundred percent was proclaimed.

David J. Callard, chairman of the Interclub Committee, credited the success of Bicker this year to the "efforts of many people, especially the Sophomore Bicker committee and the sophomore class" and to the clubs' "awareness of their responsibility to the university."

The only jarring note in the optimistic atmosphere Saturday night was the uncertain future of Prospect Club. This cooperative organization, which accepted any sophomore who would sign its book, attracted only four sophomores, and club representatives were not sure that it could stay in business next fall. New enrollment in the other sixteen clubs ranged from 20 in Elm to 79 in Terrace.
