At a late hour Monday night a very sad accident befell Frederick Tudor, '91, as he was returning from Boston. He was riding on the front platform of an electric car, and in Cambridgeport he jumped off the car and ran along at its side for a short distance. He then tried to get on the front platform again while the car was in motion, but slipped and fell over, one foot falling on the track and being run over by the wheel. Tudor was carried immediately to the nearest station, and a surgeon examined his injured foot. Fearing that amputation was necessary-so severely had the bones been crushed-the surgeon at the station advised the removal of Tudor to the Massachusetts General Hospital. At an early hour yesterday morning his foot was amputated. He will be unable to leave the hospital for several weeks.
