CHANGE PLANS FOR FOCH RECEPTION

To Greet Marshall Foch Who Will Stand on Steps of Widener Library While Salute of Nineteen Guns Is Fired

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Owing to a change in the plans for the reception of Marshal Foch at the University on Monday, the following arrangements have now been made. Marshal Foch will arrive in Cambridge shortly before 4 o'clock and will go immediately to Sanders Theatre for the academic exercises there. Because of the limited capacity of the theatre, undergraduates and other students will not be admitted. At the conclusion of these exercises, the Marshal will proceed to Widener Library, escorted by a mounted detachment from the Field Artillery Unit. The Marshal and his party will stand on the steps of the Library while a battery from the Field Artillery Unit fires a salute of 19 guns. Undergraduates and students from the various graduate schools will be drawn up under the direction of their respective marshals to welcome the great Frenchman.

Yesterday afternoon President Lowell received a message from the American Legion Committee of Reception to Marshal Foch, stating that the Marshal's health would not permit him to make an address to the students of the University when he comes here. It was for this reason that a change in plans was necessary.

The following men have been appointed marshals:

Senior Class, R. K. Kane

Junior Class, J. G. Flint

Sophomore Class, Walter Amory

Freshman Class, Gardner Cowles

Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, F. P. Magoun 3G.

Engineering School, R. C. Hardy

Graduate School of Business Administration, H. R. Hall 2G.B.

School of Architecture and School of Landscape Architecture, R. B. Jenkins 3S.A.

Graduate School of Education, Godfrey Dewey 2G.Ed.

Medical School, J. C. White 3M.
