Twenty-one former classes of the University will hold reunions this spring, beginning on Sunday, June 15, and will unite to make this year's Commencement the most extraordinary which has ever taken place in Cambridge. After a lapse of two years, the exercises of Class Week will be renewed with even more enthusiasm than was evident in the pre-wartime festivities, and will be marked by various services in memory of the approximately three hundred University graduates who died in the war.

Major Robert Homans '94 of Boston, as a member of the class holding its twenty-fifth anniversary, will serve as Commencement Marshal, and in that capacity, will occupy the leading place in the Commencement Day activities. He will also make the annual class gift to the University.

A memorial service in Appleton Chapel on the afternoon of June 15, conducted by the Reverend Caleb R. Stetson '94, of Washington, D. C., is the first exercise scheduled for Class Week, the festivities of which will be concluded with the Harvard-Yale boat race at New London on June 20. Class Day will be observed on Tuesday, June 17; the second Yale baseball game will be played on Soldiers Field on Wednesday, the 18th; and Commencement will come on Thursday, the 19th.
