When the "Marseillaise" is sung at the Stadium this afternoon it is planned to have the customary white "H" formed on the crimson background. This will be done through the waving of white handkerchiefs by those men whose tickets are designated as being within the outline of the "H", while the other men in the cheering section will form the background by waving crimson handkerchiefs.

The triumph of this motive made him a master financier and the foremost private citizen of the Commonwealth. He desired "men who could be trusted." What could not be done if we worked entirely with trustworthy men? Only with such did he deal; and in so far as he could, he labored that all Harvard men should "remain within the truth." In his address to the Class of 1923, scarcely a month ago, he voiced this desire...
