"Shall It Be 'Fair Harvard?" is the title of an article in the current number of the Alumni Bulletin which appeared yesterday, written by John du Fais '77, a well-known architect who has recently retired.

In the article Mr. du Fais reveals some plans and sketches he has made of his conception of how the University should be developed in future years. He presents a basic plan to be followed in all future physical expansion.

In the first place Mr. du Fais would do away with all old buildings which have outgrown their usefulness and are merely kept for the sake of tradition. In this class he places Grays Hall and Boylston Chemical Laboratory. If they were torn down he thinks that their site would be the ideal location for the proposed Memorial Church or Chapel, since the chapel would be placed in approximately the center of University life.

With the new Chapel placed where Grays now is, Mr. du Fais would proceed to widen Holyoke street to a broad avenue, stretching from the Charles River Parkway up to the Chapel. This would necessitate the tearing down of Holyoke House, in all probability, and of the Pudding. Mr. due Fais does not believe, however, that this should stand in the way of the execution of his plan, as he would thus have convertd Holyoke street into the main avenue of approach to the University from Boston, flanked on either side by dormitories, and presenting a very attractive appearance to the stranger who comes to the University for the first time.

A rather novel idea contained in the plans is that which proposes the closing of certain streets which bisect college grounds. In this manner it would be possible for the University to gain a good deal of much needed territory, and at the same time, a good part of the perpetual traffic which now tears around and through the University grounds would be eliminated. This arrangement would close Quincy Street. Divinity Avenue, Frisbie Place, and Oxford, Jarvis, and Everett Streets.

Mr. du Fais also advises against placing the new Straus Hall along the street in front of Matthews Hall, declaring that it should flank the new Chapel on Mass chusetts Avenue, along with the new Grays Hall on the other side.
