To the Editor of the Harvard Crimson:

While he was so busy remembering "The Forgotten Men" the writer of yesterday's editorial concerning undergraduate participation in the Tercentenary seems to have forgotten some news stories in his own paper. I refer to several stories about the Harvard Memorial Society wherein it was mentioned that the Society was to organize, under the supervision of Mr. Jerome D. Greene, Secretary of the Tercentenary, undergraduate participation in the celebration. And other stories stating that the Society had been working on plans for the undergraduates' part in the Tercentenary.

It is pleasing to us, however, to see that the Crimson is taking notice of the Tercentenary as it concerns the undergraduate, for without the aid of Crimson publicity it would be a terrible task for us to get into line the great mass of undergraduates for any active participation. We hope that we can work together with the Crimson and the Student Council in giving the undergraduates some really notable part in the Three Hundredth Anniversary Celebration.

It should be mentioned that the Committee has not forgotten the students of the College, but that it felt it would be better to put undergraduate participation more directly in the hands of the students themselves, and so chose an undergraduate organization, the Memorial Society, to handle this work. The Society has many proposals which will be definitely settled upon before the Christmas recess and presented to the students as a body. Many of these proposals are of a type that should make the Tercentenary of more interest to the undergraduates than it is at present, and with proper cooperation we feel they should prove a success.

What is even more important than the Crimson, and the Student Council cooperating with the Society, is the cooperation of all undergraduates. The Tercentenary will by no means be a dry historical affair, but a gala celebration of world note, which should prove one of the most interesting and pleasurable events in every undergraduate's college career. But to be so it must have the whole - hearted cooperation of the student body. If this cooperation is not forthcoming, the undergraduate part in the Tercentenary will be of very little note. Sincerely   Wheeler Sammous, Jr. '37.   Secretary, Harvard Memorial Society
