AN EVIL SORE . . .

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The purpose of the letter is to protest the existence of a street called McCarthy Road, which grazes the University just east of Fair Dunster House. For the most part, Harvard has been able to escape the influence of McCarthyism. But to keep this street so named is to irritate a running sore on the elbow of the University. I think the governors of the University, who pay so much in taxes to the City of Cambridge, should prevail upon the Cambridge fathers to change the name of McCarthy Road to Welch Boulevard. Thus would an evil influence be eliminated, and a true son of Harvard be rewarded for his labours. B. T. Littfield '55
