R. O. T. C. TO FIGURE AT CLASS DAY EXERCISES

REVIEW ON JUNE 20

With the exception of a few minor details arrangements for this year's Class Day week have been finally completed. Practically the same program as in former years will be carried out, but the establishment of a training camp at the University will lend a new militaristic tone and add greatly to the exercises from a spectacular viewpoint.

The Class Day committee has arranged to have a parade and review of the regiment in the Stadium, Wednesday, June 20, the day between. Class Day and Commencement Day. For the graduates of the different classes celebrating their reunions this review will take the place of the annual baseball game in Cambridge between the University and Yale. Enrolments for the corps are coming in rapidly and there will probably be well over 1200 men who will take part in the review. As at the review Saturday, admission will be only by ticket, and arrangements will be made later for the distribution of these tickets.

Many Classes Return For Festivities.

Many of the class will not be present for the graduating exercises this year, but the Seniors who will be absent will scarcely comprise a majority of the class. The class of '92, which will celebrate its twenty-fifth anniversary, is the only class that has made definite arrangements for festivities this year in Cambridge, but many of the other classes will undoubtedly return for Commencement and march in the parade of graduates to the Stadium. All the members of the three lower classes who are in the R. O. T. C. will also be in Cambridge during graduation week and a general exodus of men will not result.

The exercises will be colored greatly this year by military innovations and the operative machinery of Class Day week will be run, to a great extent, on military plans. The ushers will be members of the Junior Class in the R. O. T. C., and will be in uniform, while other members of the corps will probably assist in the events during graduation week. With the exception of the review, a feature which has been added since the program was first published, the plans for Class Day week have not been changed.
