EDITORIAL End of an Era At 5:30 last evening 110 years of the finest tradition of any school in this country was shattered. At 5:30 last evening the University administration announced that girls will be accepted into all departments of the I niversity beginning next Fall. At 5:30 last evening the old Santa Clara tradition died. The staff of The Santa Clara regrets that (he administration has been forced to make this decision. We feel that men's colleges have a flavor of distinction about them that is most difficult to achieve in a coeducational institution. But the fact remains that the 'decision has been made. It is true that the old Santa Clara tradition died last night. Now it is up to us to build a new tradition. Santa Clara students don't settle for the mediocre. Santa Clara students won't rest again until this University earns a reputation as the best coeducational university in the cotmtry. P.A.C -DONT LIKE iT* "Personally I don't like it at all.

Lautze < TRADITION SUCCUMBED "The once proud tradition of Santa Clara has succumbed to the Inevitable. Men of Santa Clara most meet the tradition with calculated foresight. Santa Clara, with or without women, will remain a great Institution. However, I am proud to say that I attended the Santa Clara that was, the Santo Clara that was part of the famous tradition." Ed Pera, ASUSC recording secretary, was not at all in favor of the move. TBADITION? What about the tradition of an all-male institution? Reactions to the news of Santa Clara's abandoning their solitary masculine status were not confined to the University campus. Student Body presidents at some of our neighboring girl's institutions had varied comments when Opinions among the student leaders regarding the co-ed arrival are mixed. ASUSC Prexy Jerry Kerr said "Progress has to be served. I realise that at this time the student protests are vehement. However, upon reflection 1 think the people will see the reasons behind it. The University has to move forward, and this is a necessary step." The ASUSC Vice President was not in accord with Kerr.
