WOMEN STUDENTS
LIMITATION AT OXFORD. TRADITIONS AS AN ARGUMENT. LONDON, June 14. The Oxford congregation, by 229 votes to 164, decided to limit the number of women undergraduates to 620. The principal of Hertford College, advocating limitation, contended that the maintenance of the present proportion of one woman to four men was appropriate to a University with the history and tradition of Oxford. Miss Fry said that women were sick to death of the discussion of the abilities and disabilities of their sex. They asked only to be trusted to help x.he University and not to be treated* as a menace and danger.
