Thirty-one members of the Class of '43, and eight of '44, will be inducted into the Harvard Chapter of Sigma XI, when that organization holds its annual meeting tomorrow night at the Faculty Club. The announcement of the elections was made by the secretary of the honorary scientific fraternity.
The inductees are Seniors who, at the close of their last year, have qualified for degrees of magna or summa cum laude in scientific fields, or Juniors in Group 1 or Group 2 who are candidates for honors in scientific fields.
