CLASS DAY PLANNED AS FIRST REUNION OF 1918

PROGRAM ANNOUNCED

Announcement of the complete program for Class Day was made yesterday by the 1918 Class Day Committee. As a result of a census of the class carried on during the past week, it is estimated that at least 250 Seniors will be in Cambridge for the Commencement exercises, a much larger number than had heretofore been expected. The Committee therefore plans a reunion on that occasion, as the class has been widely scattered during the past year, and will not likely have another opportunity to come together until after the war.

Economy, however, will be the keynote of the ceremonies, and the class intends to spend less than a third as much as in ordinary years. The usual Senior spread has been entirely eliminated, but there will be a dance in the Union with individual hall and club spreads in the Yard and the clubs. No decorations for the stadium are being attempted.

Probably 11 of the 22 Senior class officials will be present, including one marshal, W. J. Murray '18. One hundred and twenty members of 1918 now in College have stated their intention of being in Cambridge for the exercises.

The Program.

The program for Class Day week, as announced by the Committee, follows:
