FITCH '00 WILL ADDRESS 1922

SPEAKS AT MASS MEETING IN GORE HALL COMMON ROOM MONDAY.

Dr. Albert Parker Fitch '00, formerly president of the Andover Theological Seminary, and now a member of the Amherst faculty, is to be the principal speaker at a jubilee mass meeting of the Freshman class to be held in the Gore Hall Common Room at 7.30 o'clock next Monday evening. After Dr. Fitch's speech, V. B. Kellett 1L will lead the class in the music that is to be sung at the jubilee this spring.

This is the first opportunity that the whole class of 1922 has had to hear Dr. Fitch. Although he spoke to a group of the Junior S. A. T. C. early this fall, he has not been able to make the trip from Amherst to address the entire class since the return of the College to its normal basis.

In former years, Dr. Fitch's talks to the Freshman class have played an important part in the program of the first year. Before his duties at the Andover Theological Seminary became too heavy, Dr. Fitch used to give a series of talks to the first-year men, but recently he has been able to speak only once each year. Last year he was one of the men who addressed the Freshman class in the series of speeches held in the Smith Halls Common-Room under the auspices of the Phillips Brooks House Association. As it was impossible to arrange these speeches this fall because of the S. A. T. C., Dr. Fitch is making a special trip from Amherst in order to address the class of 1922 for the first and only time.
