In spite of the unusual conditions caused by the war, present indications point to a successful and relatively well-attended Class Day for 1918. Over 150 Seniors, or approximately one-third of the active members of the class, were sent tickets as a result of the first application. The second application, and the general undergraduate and graduate application will remain open until June 9. Blanks may be secured at the Cooperative, Leavitt and Peirce's, the H. A. A., the Harvard Club and the Harvard Alumni Association, and the tickets will be placed on sale during the latter part of the current week. Undergraduates and graduates who march with their respective classes may secure one free Yard and Stadium ticket at a time to be announced later.

The program for the day has been announced as follows. Dr. Albert Parker Fitch '00, who was expected to conduct the Senior Class Chapel Services, is sailing for France this week, and Professor Edward Caldwell Moore has consented to act in his stead.

The Program.

9 A. M. The Senior Class will assemble in front of Holworthy and march to Appleton Chapel, where prayer will be offered by Professor Edward Caldwell Moore.
