...proposed widening of Concord avenue by the West End Road for their new line of electric cars, is a matter of considerable interest to the University. If the plan is carried into effect, the row of large spruce trees, which border the observatory grounds on the Concord avenue side, must be cut down. These trees are greatly valued by the observatory, not only for their beauty, but also because they shut off the grounds so completely from the street, and at night prevent the glare of the electric lights from interfering with the use of the telescopes...

The annoyance and positive harm wrought by such a rumor is great. It gives an altogether erroneous estimate to students of the frequency with which men are dropped, and it makes the college appear, to those not connected with it, either degenerate in the character of its students or inefficient in the watchfulness of its officials. Indeed, the father of one of the dropped men said to Dean Briggs that...
