Ground is being broken for a row of trees which will be planted along the edges of the triangle around Memorial some time in May. About 35 oaks and elms will be put in place as soon as the ground is soft. Meanwhile the holes for the trees are being filled with loam in order to enrich the soil. The work is part of the plan for beautifying the University grounds which Professor R. T. Fisher, of the Forestry School, is carrying out.
