MASS MEETING POSTPONED

PRESIDENT LOWELL WILL ADDRESS GATHERING ON MONDAY AFTERNOON.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The first actual step in the organization of the Harvard Regiment in the form of a military mass meeting has been postponed from this evening until Monday afternoon in the New Lecture Hall at 5 o'clock. On account of an unavoidable delay, President Lowell who was to have been one of the principal speakers cannot be present this evening as planned. The other speakers on Monday will be Adjutant General C. H. Cole, of the Massachusetts Militia, Percy D. Haughton '99, and Wells Blanchard '16.

In order that the work of organization may not be delayed, all men are asked to fill out the enlistment cards, designating their choice for drill hours, which may be found at Leavitt & Peirce's, the Union, Memorial Hall, and the Freshman Dormitories. The cards may be left at the place of signing. New men also have an opportunity of signing up in this way.
