In a sudden reversal, President Bunting announced yesterday that six Radcliffe off-campus houses would receive weekly allotments of breakfast food.

All houses which were denied the daily 30-cent subsidy granted earlier this year will be sent deliveries of canned juice, instant coffee, bread, margarine, and jam. "How they use it is their own affair," Mrs. Bunting said.

Those benefiting from this new plan could actually eat two breakfasts if they so choose. "Any girl," said Mrs. Bunting, "is still welcome to eat breakfast in the dormitories."

The new arrangement, which begins November 28, will be in effect this year only. Radcliffe anticipates that future deficits will prevent the program's continuation.

"We'd like to continue this new service to off-campus houses next year, but we won't be able to afford it," Mrs. Bunting said.

Mrs. Bunting based her decision on calculations that the cost of the program to the college would run about 15 cents per girl daily. This is half the cost of the over-all subsidy plan which was rejected for financial reasons earlier
