...from Skull and Bones, declined the presidency of Zeta Psi fraternity, and attacked those institutions of privilege in Daily News editorials. He also wrote that Vassar girls are "the world's most deadly bicycle riders" and that girls should not wear slacks: "The women of Wellesley, Smith and Vassar must be deprived of their pants." Foreshadowing his present concerns, he noted that Yale had operated in the red by $133,588 in 1940 and warned: "No institution can long afford to carry a deficit or cut into capital resources...
