Despite a two-to-one vote by students to invite women to the first annual Quincy House Christmas play, none of the fairer sex will see the curtain rise on The Wizard of Oz.
The Quincy dining hall staff has said that it cannot make arrangements for so large an audience until next year.
According to Robert Fishman '61, Quincy social chairman, the proposal, the result of a recent poll, represents a break with the College tradition of "risque plays and drunken audiences." "Our play is not ribald, and we have no reason to exclude women," Fishman commented. He added that the idea of building House unity through drinking "went out with high school."
