This popularity was not foreseen in 1934, when Everett House--at 53 Garden Street--was first opened to under-graduates. At first, the girls simply got their own dinner, but with the advent of dieticians, Planned Menus, and Balanced Diets, the college thought that breakfast should be provided as well. By the time Edmands was opened in 1937, also on Garden Street, a full-scale organizational program had been instituted...
...undetermined portion of the Harvard undergraduate body, the prospect of getting up early to prepare breakfast for 20 people is so unattractive that it is instinctively relegated to the realm of things that go bump in the night.

Forecast. By comparison, the Nixon and Stevenson campaign tours are models of sober efficiency. The pampered newsmen with Stevenson need not even bother to register at their hotel stopovers; their keys are handed to them as they enter. Buses and police escorts are prompt; breakfast is invariably hot as the plane takes off each morning, and the Stevenson press staff, headed by Clayton Fritchey, gets all the speeches out in advance. But newsmen with Stevenson travel in a separate plane, get less access to the candidate than those with Nixon and Kefauver...
