An informal dinner given by the University Corporation for the heads of the Cambridge city government Monday night proved so successful that the University has decided to make this social gathering an annual affair.

Corcoran's successful effort to obtain Naval authorization for naming a new cruiser after the university city. President Conant and Jerome D. Greene, Secretary to the Corporation, were among those who cooperated.

Sullivan, Marcus Morton Jr., Thomas M. McNamara, Sgt. Edward A. Crane and ex-Mayor John D. Lynch. President Conant, Treasurer William M. Claflin Jr., and the following members of the Harvard Corporation were present: Henry L. Shattuck, Dr. Roger I. Lee, Grenville Clark, and Charles A. Coolidge.
