Places to Visit in Boston

If you have collegiate inclinations a cool way to gratify your nostalgia, in a group or twosome, is to go canoeing, day or evening, on Lake Waban on Wellesley campus.

There are other interests in summer Boston, too. In the line of sports, don't forget the ladies' days at the ball parks. Fridays at Fenway Park and Saturdays at Braves Field one can treat his best girl, or all six of them, to a dollar seat on payment of only the ten-cent tax--or the girl(s) can go without masculine escort. In the line of music there will again be the evening concerts at the Beacon playground in Brookline.

If you're a church-goer try the French Church, Notre Dame des Victories, at 25 isabella street in the Back Bay; the Russian church at 6 Dearbort street near the Dudley street terminal; Father Kerbawy's, St. John of Damascus, at 68 Hudson street, where the Orthodox Syrians go; or the Friends' meeting in the Farrar Room, Andover Hall, near the Square. At the foreign churches the services are usually in the foreign language on alternate Sundays.

Just a few more notes will clear up the list. The relief map of the United States at Babson Institute in Wellesley Hills is the largest in the world. . . Stop at the Administration Building on Hill side road near Houghton's Pond in the Blue Hills Reservation. . . If you can bear to visit transatlantic liners (or can pretend to be looking them over with an eye to choice) the Italian, Hamburg-American, Cunard and White Star lines welcome visitors. . . If the dogs of conscience drag you to the Art Museum, don't forget you can get lunch on the premises. . . And finally, if you can save out seventy-five cents, there's tea at the Ritz
