...choice of sites for the new buildings and the elimination of streets. The immediate danger to anything approaching this orderly arrangement is the imminent location of one of the first new Houses at the northwest corner of Mill Street and Plympton. This would place the new house directly opposite Gore and absolutely preclude an ultimate development having even a remote connection with the plan of the Student Council. Haphazard distribution of the units, dictated by immediate convenience, is an evil to be avoided. The first house should not be dropped down upon a piece of land merely because...

...paramount objection to a plan so extensive in its scope is likely to be the cost. To build the first unit on the DeWolf Street frontage, as the report suggests, instead of on the vacant lot behind Gore, would involve the demolition of almost a block of houses. This would add something to the expense but the advantage of the project seem to outweigh any expenditure incurred by tearing down a few frame and brick structures. Furthermore, while the report stipulates the purchase of the plot bounded by the Smith Halls, Dunster, Boylston, and Mt. Auburn Streets, this acquisition...

The heating service, even at that great distance, proved satisfactory and it was gradually extending until all the Yard buildings, except the house occupied by Professor Palmer, were connected with the central plant.

...this, what with switching backward and forward, after the fashion cf the cinema, in time sequence, and supplying comparatively comic snitches here and there, Author Wallace's sprig of grue was sufficiently funny, novel and grisly to provoke the intended reactions among Manhattan susceptibles. In it, moreover, Nina Gore, daughter of blind onetime (1907-12) U. S. Senator from Oklahoma Thomas Pryor Gore, made a one-line stage debut; Flora Sheffield exhibited a girlish physique as the heroine and Campbell Gullan, with a tykish burr, played the newspaper sleuth...
