The city will soon install between 12 and 15 traffic lights from Fogg Museum to Memorial Hall at the University's request, Vincent L. Moynihan, chief city electrician, said yesterday.
Meanwhile, Richard M. Sandler '52, Student Council president, yesterday received a letter from the Metropolitan District Commission stating that the Governor's Council approved an order for pedestrian-controlled traffic lights at the corner of Memorial Drive and DeWolfe Street.
Earlier this term, the Student Council passed a resolution requesting the lights, after a man was killed at the corner. Sandler said the commission did not say when the signals would be installed.
More Protection for Students
Moynihan did not know precisely why the University asked for the lights but he believed it was for "more protection to students crossing the streets bound for class."
Construction of lights for Radcliffe will be completed within the next ten days, Moynihan announced. These lights will be pedestrian-operated at the corner of Mason and Garden Streets, controlling the traffic between Fay House, the Congregational Church, and Cambridge Common.
