They had found a record of homosexuality or other sexual perversions among workers in 36 of 53 branches of Government, as well as in the armed forces.

Miss Small asked Radcliffe Student Government to hold an open meeting Thursday afternoon at which she would answer questions concerning the disciplinary action. She said Miss Labenow had broken release dates. She said she had no record of any such occurrences and could not recall a definite instance.
