A music room in memory of Robert M. P. Kennard, Jr. '55 was opened in brief ceremonies at Eliot House last Thursday afternoon.
The room, equipped with a phonograph and record collection for the use of House members, contains a portrait of Kennard, who died while serving in the Navy. His parents provided for the furnishing of the room and donated Kennard's record collection to the House.
In addition, between two and three hundred of Kennard's classmates have contributed to a fund which will be used to build up the room's record collection.
The Rev. Theodore P. Ferris '29, Rector of Trinity Church, and John H. Finley, Jr. '25, Master of Eliot House, participated in Thursday's ceremonies, which were attended by members of Kennard's family and College class.
