Bowdoin Pines Threatened

Fungus Attacks Trees for Which

Many Famous Men Have Drawn
Inspiration There.

Brunswick, Me, Oct. 5.-The Bow

characteristic landmark of Old Bow
doin, are threatened With destruction.
The pine blight or fungus has infested
these well-known trees ana has done
large amount Of damage. If III"
blight continues TO harm the trees in
all probability they will be sacrificed.
much to the regret of every one of
the thousands Of Bowdoin Alumni, I'M
dereraduates and friends.
The pine trees of Bowdoin have fur
nished inspiration to many an author.
LOngfellow, Hawthorne and other great
writer's. who spent their college days
at Bowdoin. found much material for
their work beneath Bowdoin Pines.
The Whispering Pines ii Bowdnin
have played their part in the country's
literature and their part was a large
one.
But tho days of BoWdoin Pines may

has attacked the trees seriously anu
they are far from the strong, healthfui

Austin Carey. professor of forestry at
Harvard. and a wcll-known BoWdoln
AlumnuS. said in Il recent interview.

Bowdoin Pines was caused by the fun

eased trees cut ut once. W hllc TINS
would not cause all Of the trees to be
cut it would practically destroy them.
Their famous beauty would be gone
and there would be nothing but mere
skeleton left.
At the present time there is 2 great
difference of opinion as to what is caus-
ing the decay in the trees. Some forest
experts think that the trouble is due to
the fungus while others believe 1t IS
brought on by the unusual weather con-
ditions of the past few years. Time only
will tell which of these two opinions is
correct. and meanwhile little can be done
towards preserving the trees.
To remove the pine trees from the
Bowdoin grounds would be to take away
a large part of that beauty which is such
a source Of pride to every Bowdoin man.

suited with Col. George e. Billings,
commissioner of immigration, who de-
cided that his department would take
