UNIVERSITY AUTO LOT WILL OPEN TO 50 CARS

STUDENTS MAY PARK AT USUAL RATES OFF HOLYOKE STREET

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

On returning from the Christmas recess student car owners will find that the University has at last offered them asylum from the tag-wielding minions of Timothy F. Leahy, proud chief of the City of Cambridge Police Forces. The last obstacle to this University project has now disappeared.

Work which began on the parking space early in November progressed so rapidly that Aldrich Durant '02, Business Manager of the University, had announced an opening for the first week of this month. Then construction stopped; a stalemate threatened.

Although Harvard had procured a license to operate an outdoor parking space at standard rates, it had not obtained permission to level the sidewalk and to drive cars into the let. With resistance against destroying the curb adamant, the entire project appeared on the point of collapsing until on Tuesday the Cambridge City Council voted a permit to let the University go to work on the curbstone.

Fifty individual spaces, Mr. Durant announced yesterday, will soon be donated to the student cause in their unending war with the "tag and ticket" arm of the law.
