POLL WILL SOUND STUDENTS ON COMPANIONATE MARRIAGE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The results of a poll of the undergraduates of Harvard and other colleges concerning their views on companionate marriage not only in general but also among students, will be made today by a representative of the Leigh-Emmerich Lecture Bureau, which is in charge of the Lindsey-Crane debate tomorrow evening at Symphony Hall, regarding this subject. In the questionnaire sent out, the students were asked whether they believed in companionate marriage, and if they do believe in it whether they would adopt it.

"When companionate marriage is really understood," commented Judge Lindsey in his recent speech in New York, "it will mean an enormous in crease in the health and happiness of our undergraduates by increasing marriage at colleges and affording our students a normal adjustment at an early age at just that point where so many youthful lives are totally wreched."
