Harvard men’s basketball head coach Tommy Amaker has released the team’s 2013-14 schedule, which features 12 games to be played at Lavietes Pavilion, a contest at TD Garden, and the program’s first trip to Alaska for the Carrs/Safeway Great Alaska Shootout.“We are excited about the schedule we have put together for this coming year,” said Amaker. “Our nonconference schedule will provide us with many opportunities to improve as a team before beginning another competitive Ivy League campaign. We look forward to getting the season under way.”Harvard will be in search of a fourth straight Ivy League title this season and a third straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. The Crimson went 20-10 last year, 11-3 in Ancient Eight play, before knocking off third-seeded New Mexico to reach the third round of March Madness. Harvard will also be vying for a fifth straight 20-win season, a feat that has never been accomplished in the Ivy League. The Crimson will face 15 opponents in 2013-14, which it played last year, going 16-5 in those contests with a 6-2 mark in nonconference action.The 103rd season of Harvard basketball opens Nov. 10 against Holy Cross as part of a tripleheader at TD Garden. The event will also feature two other regional rivalries as Boston College takes on UMass, and Northeastern squares off with Boston University.To read the full story and view the season’s schedule, visit the GoCrimson.com website. Tickets go on sale today (Aug. 27).
It normally takes one or two days for a demolition team to gut out an old store to prepare it for a new owner, but something stopped one rugged crew in its tracks in Harvard Square earlier this year: tiled walls sporting a Harvard-related motif that dated back a century.When the team called the new tenant, Ayr Muir, the founder and CEO of the Clover Food Lab, to check out the tiles and see what he wanted to do next, the ready-to-ravage crew was surprised when he said, “We’re going to save them.”Today the popular vegetarian restaurant at 1326 Massachusetts Ave. offers its customers a rare peek at what a popular downtown Cambridge eatery looked like in 1913. The thoughtful rehab, which features a white tiled floor and walls with decorative crimson H’s and glass-painted school pennants adorning the inside perimeter, also demonstrates how a Harvard grad took on the challenge to restore a small part of the square’s hidden past.Seated in Harvard Yard, the animated Muir, M.B.A. ’04, said that when the tiles were discovered, the restaurant was about two months away from opening. “How could we open the store in time and still save the tiles, I thought?” Muir said he also considered who would absorb the cost of restoring the tiles, which would require many man-hours to scrape off the layers of accumulated gook. Muir said that he thought about raising the funds from Harvard alumni, but realized that with only weeks to go before the restaurant opened there was not enough time.Meeting with his general contractor, Muir said a decision was reached to do the tile cleanup work at night with a special restoration team, while the day crew prepared for the store’s opening. He Muir said the expense of the restoration work — about $300,000 — came out of his own pocket. “But it would have been unconscionable to just have let that history disappear. This store has an important story to tell,” Muir said. Interior of Hayes-Bickfords.

Sullivan photos; Cambridge Historical Commission Part of that story dates back to when Waldorf Lunch, a forerunner of the fast-food restaurant chain, opened its doors at the location in 1913. At its height, Waldorf Lunch had around 200 stores in seven adjacent states. After it closed in the mid-1930s, the Hayes-Bickford, another variant of the quick-service restaurant chain, took over the location until the early 1970s. In 1975, the site became the home of the Chinese restaurant Yenching. Clover took over the lease in 2016.“The Harvard tiles aren’t new to me,” said Charles Sullivan, M.C.P. ’70, executive director of the Cambridge Historical Commission. Sullivan said that he frequented the Hayes-Bickford in the late 1950s and remembers seeing the Harvard tiled floor. “But nobody at the time had any idea that there was a lot more of those tiles hiding behind those walls,” Sullivan said.When the tiled walls and school pennants were discovered earlier this year, Sullivan said that his office could only request that Muir preserve the tiles, because the Historical Commission has no jurisdiction over a storefront’s interior. From reviewing old building permits, Sullivan said that his office believes that the tiles were covered up in the 1930s when Hayes-Bickford took over the location. Regardless of when that happened, Sullivan is pleased that they are now uncovered. “The tiles are a treasure for all to enjoy,” he said.Donna Choih, assistant manager of the Harvard Square Clover store, agrees. “Sometimes we have customers come in just to check out the tiles,” she said. “I’ll ask them if they want to order, and they will say, ‘No, we were just attracted to the interior of the store.’” Choih said that a common question that customers have is whether the tiles are really old or just made to look old. Choih said she assures them that the aged tiles are indeed real.Fighting to be heard above the lunchtime din, Choih said that many customers are especially drawn to the glass-painted school pennants, which parade such names as Harvard, Yale, Bowdoin, Exeter, and Holy Cross. Choih said that patrons enjoy trying to find their alma maters among the diverse and often unfamiliar mix of names, including the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, a late 19th- and early 20th-century Native American boarding school that often competed successfully against Harvard’s football team.Considering the larger context of Harvard’s history, Sullivan said the Waldorf Lunch served an important function for Harvard, providing a regular place for students to eat before the House system was constructed. Sullivan said that whereas today Harvard undergraduates eat most of their meals in their House dining halls, in the beginning of the 20th century Harvard undergraduates ate mostly in dining establishments in and around Cambridge, like the Waldorf Lunch. Sullivan and others pointed out that this might help explain why the Waldorf opted for a Harvard-tiled motif, because it would have been welcoming to students. Additionally, the white tiles might have connoted good hygiene, a growing concern.Finishing up a comprehensive tour of the store, filled with plenty of illuminating historical references and tidbits, Muir finally stopped at a wall facing a bank of pennants. “All these restored pennants are as they looked over 100 years ago,” he said. “Except for one, Boston College, which was pried loose a long time ago.”Pointing to a pennant on the wall that reads Full Circle, Muir said this was the spot once filled by the Boston College banner. Muir said Full Circle is the name of the small independent school that his parents ran in upstate Massachusetts. Muir said putting the name of his parents’ school up on the wall had nothing to do with restoring a forgotten facet of Harvard or Cambridge’s history, but it was just about “paying respect to the folks.”Anthony Chiorazzi has an M.Phil. in social anthropology from Oxford University and a master’s degree in theological studies, with a focus on religion and the social sciences, from the Harvard Divinity School.SaveSave Wide view of the Clover construction.

By Lorena Baires July 29, 2019 The United States reaffirmed its commitment to continue strengthening efforts from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras to counter transnational organized criminal organizations. U.S. Attorney General William Barr announced the decision during the Third Ministerial of the Northern Triangle Attorneys General, held May 16, in San Salvador, El Salvador.Attorneys general from four countries will implement a regional strategy in the following months, expanding their efforts to eradicate human trafficking, corruption, and financial crimes. Because it’s about common threats, policies and legislation will be designed to increase effectiveness and the scope of law enforcement agencies, public ministries, and judiciary authorities.“We have renewed our commitment to stand shoulder-to-shoulder in the fight against MS-13, the 18th Street Gang, and other transnational criminal groups that threaten the citizens of all our countries,” said Barr. “Together, we struck a hard blow on these criminal organizations.”“We, the four prosecutors, are willing to counter transnational crime,” Honduran Attorney General Óscar Chinchilla added. “We will focus on two fundamental measures: first, to attack financial structures of transnational criminal groups; second, to hit corruption, which is of key importance in this process.”Thanks to the U.S. support, authorities filed charges against more than 7,000 gang members from the Northern Triangle. “We are committed to reinforcing our efforts,” said Salvadoran Attorney General Raúl Melara. “With the U.S. government’s cooperation and collaboration, these efforts will yield better results.”During the meeting, participants signed an agreement to extend Operation Regional Shield, a combined effort to exchange information to combat gangs. Authorities conducted simultaneous operations in 2017 and 2018, and are preparing operations for 2019. For example, one of the most important achievements of the combined efforts between the United States and El Salvador is the arrest of MS-13 leader Armando Eliú Melgar, alias Blu, a gang member who led criminal activities on the U.S. east coast.“We maintain our commitment to these efforts, with the funds granted to support these police efforts through Operation [Regional] Shield,” said Barr.Forty-seven percent of Central Americans fled their countries and headed north in caravans that started in October 2018, because of the violence, threats, and insecurity these criminal groups pose, according to the report “El Salvador: Flow Monitoring Survey on Profiles and Humanitarian Needs of Migrants in Transit,” conducted by the United Nations’ International Organization for Migration. “I believe that improving security in our countries is important to reduce forced migration,” Barr added.The United States reaffirmed it will continue to fund the efforts through resident legal advisors at the Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development Assistance and Training in each country, with their counter transnational gang teams of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; units of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration; and efforts of the Department of Homeland Security to combat illegal human trafficking.To continue disrupting criminal groups, information exchange and experience in investigation are essential. “Cooperation between both nations is mutual because El Salvador sends analysts and investigators to the United States to work with law enforcement agencies and the investigation processes of criminal organizations in that country,” said Commissioner Howard Cotto, director of the National Civil Police.“The most important areas are human trafficking and smuggling, narcotrafficking, and gang issues. The attorney general [William Barr] has recognized our advances in that regard in El Salvador. We are permanently in contact with law enforcement agencies in the United States, and we always get that information. Today the attorney general confirmed they don’t intend to reduce the budget for security,” Commissioner Cotto concluded.
