The object of this committee is to see that the newcomer has opportunities to meet Harvard men in Chicago and to alleviate as much as possible the sensation of strangeness which is felt by a young graduate coming in search of a position, to an unknown city for the first time.

Each of the five members of the team will shoot at 100 birds in four strings of 25, thrown at unknown angles.
