SHADOWS AND TALL TREES: Springdale Golf Club, which plans to build a new 16,000 square-foot clubhouse, has abandoned redevelopment plans that once included the removal of approximately 1,200 trees. New plans, which were recently approved by the Princeton Site Plan Review Advisory Board, now call for the removal of 210 trees. However, Springdale will mitigate the tree removals by planting 181 new trees.

Happy Birthday George F. Kennan: A Hodge Road Reminiscence

Stuart Mitchner

A magnum opus eighteen pages long? It must be a poem. Or perhaps something concise and mathematical. If it's the work of a Princeton scholar, it must be Einstein. Not so. The manuscript currently on display at Firestone Library, page by separate page in a series of glass-topped tables occupying the center of the main exhibition gallery, is a telegram sent to the U.S. State Department from Moscow in February 1946 by a diplomat attempting to tell "official Washington" the "whole truth" about the Soviet Union. The author is longtime Princeton resident George F. Kennan, who celebrated his one-hundredth birthday this past Monday. The occasion will be formally observed this Friday, February 20, in a day-long conference at the University, with opening remarks from Secretary of State Colin Powell.
