Two 100-feet steel radio towers are being erected on the roof at each end of the new Cruft Memorial Laboratory as the final step in the installation of the University's first wireless station, according to the changed arrangement with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, according to which the high tension work is to be done there and the wireless experiments are to be carried on at the University.

A table at the entrance on the building bears the following inscription suggested by President Lowell:

"This Building was given by Harriet Otis Cruft of Boston, in memory of her Brothers:

Edward Cruft, Jr., Class of 1831.

William Smith Cruft, Class of 1834.

Samuel Breck Cruft, Class of 1836.

James Jackson Cruft, Class of 1846, 1914."
