Master Taylor Gets Remodeled Entrance

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The men of Kirkland House yesterday presented retiring Master Taylor with plane for the remodeling of the House's Dunster St. entrance. The Master, an avid gardener, immediately offered to do the landscaping.

The new Charles H. Taylor Entrance, to be completed by the end of this summer, will feature a cement brick terrace with trees and with branches engraved with the Master's name at each side of the present archway.

The presentation occurred in front of 200 people crowded into the Kirkland House Junior Common Room. They had come to witness a convocation in honor of the Master's ten years at Kirkland.

Among the Kirkland House musicians playing at the convocation was cellist Michael A. Flaksman '66, who snapped a string on his first note. Master Taylor commented in expressing his final thanks: "If I were a cello, all my strings would be broken."
