The storm centers of Europe will again be discussed before members of the Union and their guests when Dr. Fridtjof Nansen, one time famous Arctic explorer and at present refugee relief worker, tells of his personal experiences in the troubled districts of Europe. Thursday afternoon, December 6, at 4 o'clock in the Living Room of the Union. On that evening, he will speak in Symphony Hall.
