Twenty-two University graduates have been nominated for Overseers of the University by a committee of the Harvard Alumni Association. Six of these men will be elected, five to fill regular places on the Board and the sixth to fill the extra vacancy caused by the recent death of Professor Barrett Wendell '77, who was elected last June to serve a six-year term.

The twenty-two candidates are now to be voted upon by postal ballot among the alumni, and the twelve receiving the largest vote will be placed on the ballot for the election held in Cambridge on Commencement Day in June, six to be elected at that time.

The Board of Overseers, one of the two governing boards of the University, is composed of thirty members, five being ordinarily elected each year for six-year terms.

In addition, six men have been selected as candidates for Directors of the Alumni Association, three to be elected on Commencement Day.
