Mascot Mice

To the Editors of the Crimson:

Several of our sister insititutions in the Ivy League have totemic animals for their sports teams (tigers, bulldogs and lions). Harvard does not although it is the only university in the world with a patented animal, the transgenic mouse. We should make this our totem. It is relatively clean, easy to carry, and indisputably ours. I can already hear, reverberating in the stadium, a roar that strengthens the mettle of our troops and strikes fear in the heart of our opponents: Go, mice! Professor William Alonso
