Daniel G. Mulvihill, president of the Harvard University Employees Union for the past eight years, was notified last night of his appointment to a state wage-studying commission. Mulvihill's long experience representing non-academic employees in the University brought him one of the mine positions in the group.

The recently-formed committee will consider and recommend wage-changes for those employed in public house-keeping. It was formed by the Massachusetts Minimum Wage Commission under the State Commission of Labor and Industry.

The board has three members representing employees, three representing employers, and three representing the general public. The required afternoon meetings in the State House will not, according to Mulvihill, interfere with his Employees Union duties.
