Shurtleff '96 of Boston, a member of the visiting committee from the Board to the School, Mr. Carl R. Parker, Treasurer of the American Society of Landscape Architecture, and Professor H. V.

The competition was a problem in landscape design. The competitors were furnished with a topographic map of a given piece of property in an attractive Massachusetts town, on which a house, somewhat in the Italian style, had already been erected. The owner wished to construct a formal garden of some distinction according with the style of the house, of which a photograph was furnished the competitors.
