NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Final plans for a Harvard Reconstruction Group have been completed. The Group is to consist entirely of men with technical training in architecture, landscape architecture, town planning, surveying, draughting or engineering. The names and recommendations of all those desiring to go are submitted to President Lowell, and only the men that he personally approves of are accepted.

The group is to sail from New York the end of June on the S. S. "Niagara" of the French line, and will remain at work until the first of October. The men will probably be put at work in Verdun or in its environments.

The following men have been definitely accepted to date: A. R. Frye E. S., J. H. Heyner 1 S.L.A., H. J. Walker 3 S.L.A., F. F. Blaine 1 S.L.A., M. F. Farren, B. P. Jenks '21 G. H. Lee 2 S.L.A., T. G. Wilder 1 G.B., Prentiss French 2 S.L.A., R. L. Buell Occ., R. P. Giddings, P. L. Kent, R. D. Sias.
