Details of the formal celebration of the Tercentenary, to take place at a meeting in the new Tercentenary Theatre on Friday morning, September 18, have now been pretty completely lined up.

The program will open with an Address of Welcome given by Edward K. Rand '94, Pope Professor of Latin, appointed Latin Orator for the Tercentenary. This talk will be followed by a formal recital of the acts constituting the Founding of Harvard College by Samuel E. Morison '07, professor of History and Tercentenary Historian. A representative from the Common-wealth of Massachusetts, not yet chosen, will then deliver an address.

Conant's Address

Following this President Conant will give the Tercentenary Oration which can be looked forward to as perhaps the major speech of his career as Head of the University. At the close of this address a large number of degrees will be conferred upon eminent scholars from all over the world.

Music for the meeting will be supplied by a graduate and undergraduate chorus of 200 voices under the direction of Archibald T. Davison, professor of Choral Music, Tercentenary Chorister. Rehearsals for this group will be held in New York this spring and in the week preceding the Celebration.

The Harvard Alumni Association will have a meeting on Friday afternoon which is being arranged by President Lowell, chairman, and Charles Francis Adams '88, Chief Marshal for the Tercentenary.

In Case of Rain

The monster, rain, is feared by the directors of the Tercentenary. They have drawn up elaborate counter schemes. If the weather is unfavorable the morning meeting on Friday will be held in the Memorial Church. Loud speakers will be put up in adjoining halls for the benefit of those who are in Cambridge. The afternoon meeting of the Alumni Association will be scheduled in Sanders Theatre with the same loud speaker system in operation.

Radio Broadcast

In any case both of these meetings will be broadcast on a world-wide book-up. The National Broadcasting Corporation. The Columbia Broadcasting System, and the World-Wide Broadcasting Foundation (W1XAL) have generously turned over their entire radio net-work for the occasion
