This has caused a great deal of inconvenience to the pub- lic in general, and especially to Techno- logy students. The only waye to get to Boston are bv walking or else by going to Central Square and transferring. go- ing either by the Cottage Farm Bridge or by the Cambridge Street subways. So reat a protest has bene raised that the Boston Elevated has decided to try to run cars over the bridge on a single track. There is a turnout at the Cambridge end. and another on the fl bridge just beyond the draw. At best there will be considerable delays because cars cannot pass on that portion of the bridge. The engineers in eharge of the work say that the addition of street cars to the already burdensome traffic will delay the job so that it will take four months to complete it instead of three, as was at first expected. Furtlhermore, since the tralfic over the bridge is so great, it is thought that when only half the width r of.the bridge can be used, the traffic conditions will be quite dlangerous. and accidents Are inevitable. The space between the car track and the curb is so narrow that a street car and two automobiles cannot pass at one time. It is planned to repair the bridge in four sections, taking half the width and half the lenath at one time. Tlie work consists entirely of laying new timber.

banding !

bar has treated the men under his com-

anand, the Naval Unit presented that

-officer with a watch and chain. T he

g-ift was presented after the men had

3Loesch was the originator of the idea

and also the head of the committee

which made the presentation.

was enthusiastically taken up by the

sailors. Nothing could be more con-

clusive of the estetern in which Ensign

Dunbar is held by the fellows, than the

The following bulletin regarding armyovercoats for the R. O. T. ; C. has; beengiven out by Colonel Dole: "Authority,has been received for purchase by mem-bers of the R. O. T. C. of army over-coats at the service price, so it would beunwise for members of the R. O. T. C.to make other pllrehaes The immed-iate purchase wvil not be arranged for,as it is thought that before the b~,gin-nine of next term, arrangements may-be made for free issue of these ecats,and so it is better to let the matterres"t for a while."
