Chamberlain Gets Kirkland Position

Lowell House assistant superintendent Edward F. Chamberlain will succeed James C. Yule as superintendent of Kirkland, Deacon master Mason Hammond '25 announced yesterday.

Yule, who has supervised Kirkland maintenance since the House opened in 1930, will retire July 1. He will start orienting Chamberlain into Kirkland House routine next week.

Chamberlain, a former law school student and newspaper reporter, came to Lowell in 1947. Master Hammond called Chamberlain "a fine choice."

Chamberlain came to America from Ireland at the age of 15. He finished his high school career at Boston Latin, then joined up with the Post. He has returned to County Clare on the Emerald Isle only once, but that trip proved well worth while. It provided him with a wife.
