Initial Freshman Dinner, Talks Planned for Wednesday Night

9 Selected from '46 To Class Committee

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Comprising the first step towards the integration of this year's Freshman Class, a series of seven dinners will be given during the summer under the auspices of the Freshman Committee of the Student Council, with the first one scheduled for next Wednesday, in the Lowell House dining hall, at 6 o'clock.

Although this meeting is being sponsored by the Council, in the future all such Freshman activities will be under the jurisdiction of a Freshman Inter-House Committee, with one representative from each House.

Members Chosen

Chosen to the Committee have been Robert M. Hart of Adams House and Tulsa, Oklahoma, Joseph L. Ray, Jr. of Dunster House and Darien, Connecticut, John E. Sonneland of Eliot House and Bellingham, Washington, John P. Cambell of Kirkland House and Whitesboro, N. Y., Dryden Jones of Leverett House and Cincinnati, Frank S. Whiting of Lowell House and Torrance, California, Henry H. Arthur of Winthrop House and New York City, and Blaise F. Alfano of Dudley Hall and Roslindale, Massachusetts.

William T. Ziegler, Jr. of Dunster House and Washington, D. C., was also chosen in his capacity as chairman of the Red Book.

For the first of the dinners a capacity audience of 300 Freshmen is expected, and 40 will be taken from each House. Lists will be posted in each House and men are urged to make reservations soon in order that the dining halls may make preparations.

Dinners Part of Plan

The program of dinners is part of a plan formulated last May by the Student Council to deal with the problem of a wartime Freshman Class divided up among the Houses and having little opportunity to attain the class unity which other classes have gained in their year in the Yard. At the dinners the new Freshmen will have one of their few opportunities to meet classmates.
