FRENCH MILITARY ATTACHE TO ATTEND MEMORIAL EXERCISES

HARVARD REGIMENT TO COME

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Word has been received at the University from Ambassador Jusserand that the French Embassy will be represented by General Collardet, its Military Attache, at the commemoration exercises to be held here on Sunday, May 30, at which General Pershing will speak. The other armies by whose side the Americans fought during the war have been invited to send representatives, and men will also be present representing the United States Army and Navy.

A committee from the Harvard Regiment, consisting of Professor Ralph Barton Perry '97, Kenneth B. Murdock '16, G. B. Blaine '17, Charles A. Coolidge, Jr., '17, and Edward A. Whitney '17, is sending notices to over 1700 former members of that organization asking them to attend the Commemoration, since it is to be especially in memory of the members of the Regiment who gave their lives in the war, and of the commander of the Regiment, Lieutenant-Colonel James A. Shannon, who was killed in action in France. The members of the Regiment are asked to wear their uniforms.

The Committee on Arrangements for the Commemoration yesterday stated positively that admission to Sanders Theatre on May 30 will be by ticket only, for those who are to take part in the procession as well as for others.
