Rabbi Zarchi Confronted Maria Ressa, Walked Off Stage Over Her Harvard Commencement Speech
At a meeting last Tuesday evening, the Cambridge City Council in solemn conclave assembled, adopted the following resolution.
"Whereas certain residents residing on Mill Street are deprived of their lawful rights to enter homes without serious inconvenience because of the promiscuous closing of highways in that vicinity, it is ordered that the Chief of Police refuse permission to the authorities of Harvard College to block off Mill Street and thereby restrict its use, for public travel during Class Day exercises."
Investigation shows that the "certain residents residing on Mill Street," which runs parallel to Memorial Drive between Lowell and Winthrop Houses consist solely of Miss Mary A. McDonnell. Inasmuch as the house itself belongs to the University, and as Miss McDonnell herself has expressed her willingness to have Mill Street closed on Class Day, it is quite possible that the City Council may be prevailed upon to shelve chivalry and to rescind the order.
