'Living Quarters' for Ladies Won't Grace Harvard Club

Only Dining, Rest Rooms May Be Built In Boston Branch

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

What threw the conservative organization into confusion was an article yesterday in an intown newspaper which grouped the Club's action to establish "living quarters" for women under the same heading of peculiar phenomena as the snow-thunder storm which heralded the coming of spring Wednesday night.

Only Dining Room

Officials want it understood that any "living quarters" which may be provided for ladies at the Commonwealth and Massachusetts Avenue quarters will consist solely of a private downstairs dining room and several rest rooms for the wives of the Alumni.
