The Commandant of the School, Chaplain (Colonel) William D. Cleary, then presented the diplomas to the 330 chaplains. In awarding the certificates, Colonel Cleary complimented the class on its exceptionally high academic record.
Most of the men who will enter the school today for the school's 21st session have already arrived in Cambridge. They have been drawn from civilian pulpits, as the preceding twenty classes before them, and will take the same five week course as the others.
During the week rest period between classes, the school has moved the offices of the instructors from the International House to Perkins Hall. Other facilities will remain where they are now situated.
