RADCLIFFE POLLS SQUARE ON PREFERENCE IN BABIES' SEX

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

If a Radcliffe girl approaches you and asks whether you would prefer boys or girls for children, don't be surprised. It is all quite official.

Carl J. Friedrich, professor of Government, has asked the girls in his course on Public Opinion and Propaganda to learn if the possibility of war has caused women to prefer girls to boys, who might become the victims of the conflict.

The girls plan to question passing people in Harvard Square, and then report their findings to Professor Friedrich. The results of the poll will not be made known until next week.
