Broadcasting

This programme, like the other principal events of the Celebration, will be broadcast over an international hook-up through the courtesy of the National Broadcasting Company, the Columbia Broadcasting System, and the World-Wide Broadcasting Foundation (W1XAL).

Lunch will be served in the Union after this meeting breaks up (around 1.30 o'clock). In the afternoon there will be an exhibition football practise on Soldiers Field. Dick Harlow, football coach, will be in charge here, and it will be a good opportunity to see this year's players. The Harvard band will play and march in formation.

After dinner that evening the river front by the houses will be illuminated and there will be an exhibition of fireworks. Following this the undergraduates who have returned to Cambridge will form a torch light parade and march to the statue of John Harvard in the Yard. Following this there will be a free pop-concert dance in Memorial Hall for all undergraduates. Freshmen will be admitted and girls may be entertained at dinner that evening.

On Friday evening there will be an Undergraduate Tercentenary Dinner at the Harvard Club of Boston. If any tickets are left over members of the Class of 1940 will be allowed to attend, but it is doubtful if this will be possible.
