French Envoys on Visit to Harvard

Several members of the delegation of prominent Freshmen, who have come to this country in connection with the Champlain celebration at Crown Point, N. Y., made a special trip from New York yesterday to visit Harvard. These gentlemen were M. Etienne Lamy, president of the French Academy, statesman and historian, Professor Vidal dela Blache, member of the Institute, representing the Sorbonne, and M. Gaston de Champs, editor of "Le Temps", a former Hyde lecturer at Harvard. They were met by ex-Ambassador Robert Bacen '90, now a member of the Corporation, Mr. William Rotch '65, president of the Alliance Francaise, of Boston, and Professor W. H. Schofield of the department of Comparative Literature. The three visitors delivered addresses to the students of History I in the New Lecture Hall at 9 o'clock and spent the remainder of the morning about the grounds and buildings of the University.
