SOCIETY OF FELLOWS HALL TO RECEIVE LOWELL PLAQUE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A bronze relief of President Lowell has just been completed as a gift of his classmates in the Class of 1877. The plaque is a life-sized likeness of President Lowell, and will soon be placed on the south wall in the Main Hall of the new Society of Fellows, in Eliot House.

No formal ceremony of dedication is to be held, but the plaque will be on view to returning graduates during Commencement week, beginning June 19, which marks President Lowell's twenty-fifth and last year as president of the University. The relief was modelled from life by Paul Adrian Brodeur, of Wellesley Hills. It is the first sculptured likeness of President Lowell which has yet been made, although oil portraits have been painted by both the late John Singer Sargent and Charles Hopkinson.
