The Andover-By-Pass (Route 125) was constructed to reduce traffic on the Phillips campus. Academy trustees under the leadership of Alum Thomas Cochran bought the land and the state constructed the road, which opened in 1931.


Cochran was also the benefactor for the [[Cochran Wild Life Sanctuary]] on the grounds of Philips.
The Shawsheen Indians beat the Chicago Canadians on April 20, 1924, becoming the first team to become champions on their first try for the national soccer championship.  The final score was Shawseen Indians 3 / Chicago Canadians 0.
