GRADUATES TO GATHER AT UNIVERSITY MAY 21

Last Year's Graduates' Day Successful --Baseball Game and Track Meet With Princeton on Schedule--All Harvard Men Invited

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The date for Graduates' Day at the University, when alumni from far and near will return to see the University as it is today and learn at first hand about its recent progress, has been definitely set for Saturday, May 21.

The meeting will be held under the auspices of the New England Federation of Harvard Clubs, and invitations are being mailed this week to every graduate in New England.

The idea of holding such a Graduates' Day sprang originally out of the success of the "Old Grads" Summer School" held at the University at the outset of the Endowment Fund campaign. Last spring the New England Federatior tried the experiment of bringing back the graduates to study the work of the University, and more than 150 men attended. The meeting is now to be repeated, and it may possibly become an annual affair.

N. H. Batchelder '01 and A. E. Chase '05, president and secretary of the Federation, have announced preliminary plans for the meeting. It will open with a session in the Faculty Room at University Hall at ten in the morning, at which President Lowell and other officers of the University will describe various phases of the life of the University of today. Luncheon will be served in the Union. In the afternoon graduates may visit the buildings and departments of the University or take in the Princeton baseball game and track meet. Dinner at the Harvard Club of Boston, with singing by the Glee Club, will close the day.

All Harvard men everywhere, whether or not members of any Harvard club, or residents of New England, are invited
