HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
Ceremonies will be held today at Shannon Hall for the presentation of a portrait of Colonel Paul A. J. Azan, French war hero who trained more than 1,200 Harvard students for combat in World War I.
Miss Olivia Hazelton will present the portrait, painted in 1918 by her sister, the late Mary B. Hazleton. It will hang in the Army ROTC seminar room.
Colonel Azan was sent to Harvard by the French Government at the request of President A. Lawrence Lowell just before the United States entered the war. Thrice cited for gallantry in combat, he was an officer of the Legion of Honor and a holder of the Croix de Guerre.
