BISHOP OF VERDUN VISITS UNIVERSITY HALL, LIBRARY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Representing the French St. Mihiel Memorial Committee, Mr. Marie Andre Charles Ginisty, bishop of Verdun, paid a short visit to the University yesterday morning. With other members of his party he was received by President Lowell, and a brief inspection of Widener Library and University Hall followed.

He was accompanied by French clergy and army officers, and also by State Senator G. G. Bacon '08, who heads the Massachusetts St. Mihiel Memorial Committee.

The bishop is visiting the United States in the interests of the memorial monument and tower which is being erected at Verdun in memory of the countless unidentified allied coldiers who died in action upon the battlefields in the vicinity. America's contribution to the memorial is expected to be complete in the near future.
