General Baron Kuroki, commander of one of the main Japanese armies during the whole of the war with Russia, and well-known as one of the most efficient officers in the field, will visit Harvard tomorrow. The General and nine Japanese officers, escorted by Brigadier General O. E. Wood and Major Lynch of the United States Army, will arrive in Boston tonight at 6 o'clock and will stay at the Hotel Touraine.

Major Henry L. Higginson '55 representing the Corporation will call on General Kuroki early tomorrow morning and conduct the visitors to Cambridge, after first taking them to call on the Governor at the State House. At 1 o'clock the Corporation will entertain the visitors at luncheon in the Trophy Room of the Union. After luncheon General Kuroki and his suite will be escorted to the Faculty Room in University Hall by the Japanese students in the University. At 3 o'clock there will be an opportunity for members of the University to assemble in the Yard to greet General Kuroki as he leaves University Hall. A few words of greeting will be spoken by J. D. White '07 on behalf of the undergraduates and cheers for General Kuroki and the Emperor of Japan will be called for. After this simple expression of the University's welcome the Japanese officers will be taken on an automobile ride in the suburbs of Boston as guests of the Japan Club of Harvard.

In the evening a dinner and military reception will be given in honor of General Kuroki by Governor Curtis Guild '81 at the New Algonquin Club, and the following morning the visitors will leave Boston for the west.
