President Roosevelt discusses his upcoming Harvard visit with his son Ted, who is considering moving for the coming school year. Roosevelt believes Ted should move into a boarding house outside campus, where he could better enjoy Cambridge’s social life, and save on rent. If Ted will accompany his father to Riverside Press and Chestnut Hill, they can have time to talk during the drive there.
