An ordained Baptist minister, Professor Latourette has been at Yale since 1921 and is now engaged in writing "A History of the Expansion of Christianity."

The lectures were established in 1898 by Nanee Yulee Noble in the "hope of arousing in young men the joy of service for Christ and humanity, especially in the ministry of the Christian Church." Professor Latourette will deliver five public lectures on some religious subject.

Brown studied last year in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in the department of Fine Arts and will continue to study American painting from 1913 to 1929.
