BACON STATUARY GROUP NOW PLACED IN FRONT OF CHAPEL

The Bacon statuary group for the Memorial Church, which was moved from the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York by motor truck, arrived in the Harvard Yard yesterday morning and is now resting on the front portico of the Chapel. The statue, representing a mother and her soldier son, will be moved into the Memorial Room of the Church as soon as staging being used by decorators inside can be taken down, probably the latter part of this week.

C. R. Apted '06, superintendent of Yard Police, is detailing a special night and day guard to watch over the four and a half-ton block of Caen marble until it is safely ensconced in the Church.
