Work has already started here toward the selection of a committee which will handle the University delegation. The Harvard quota this year is 75, and it is expected that with the site of the conference so near Cambridge the full number of emissaries will be found at an early date. The regular registration fee of seven dollars will not be required from foreign students. In order to secure a large foreign representation financial aid will also be extended to certain of these students who could not otherwise attend the conference. All men who are interested in spending all or part...

The budget calls for the extension and completion of Langdell Hall, the work to cost $1,250,000, and the construction of an administration building on the site of Gannett House, and a building to contain an auditorium and rooms for moot arguments, perhaps north of the extension of Langdell Hall...

...Mason and one other of our party go to Belize with Malaria, I will go to a site on Cozumel and there visit Xharel again as well as Chaemaltun near Ascension Pay. There the boat will get Mason and he and I will go from Lab Cruz to a place called Tabi, southeast of Lba Cruz, and to Saban and possibly to Kabia oast of Valladolid.
