BOSTON – By the time the Red Sox take the field for opening day at Fenway Park next spring, smokeless tobacco will have seen its last dip, chew and spit at the old ballyard.
That's because on Wednesday Mayor Martin J. Walsh signed an ordinance banning the use of smokeless tobacco and all other tobacco products at city parks and ballfields, including Fenway Park, a law that will kick in on April 1.
BOSTON — A committee of the University of Massachusetts Board of Trustees on Wednesday met in a closed session to discuss an "on-going investigation" under a state law that allows public bodies to meet in private to discuss possible criminal activity.
