...energy with which President Lowell goes about filling his summer "vacation is a phenomenon of the first order. Sport and business mix in equal proportion" is a phenomenon of the first order, sunny hours back-diving from his raft in Cotuit, and speeding ahead of motorcycle cops in his snappy green Buick phaeton (Lowell at the wheel of course).

For days on end the founder of the Harvard House Plan could be seen carrying bridge-lamps, books, Old Masters, pots and pans...

Strange shadows of far off greatness move in the Yard among us, and pause to stare at Holworthy 14. Families have come, fiancees have come, the girl from Cotuit last summer has come, sight unseen they have come.

...others who happen to fall along the northern border of the path of totality, which extends approximately from Cotuit, directly through Providence to Stafford, Connecticut, are asked to observe whether or not the bright edge of the sun disappears at their particular location. If they report their findings to the University Observatory, they will help materially in more accurately fixing the edge of the path...
