DUKE OF ABRUZZI HERE TODAY
Will Call on the President and Inspect University This Afternoon.
His Royal Highness the Duke of Abruzzi will visit the University today accompanied by Mr. Larz Anderson '88. The party will arrive in the forenoon and will call on President Eliot, after which they will be entertained privately at luncheon. His Highness will be shown over the University in the afternoon.
The Duke of Abruzzi is well known as a captain in the Italian navy. In 1900 he conducted an Arctic excursion, which penetrated nearer to the North Pole than had been reached before Peary's recent expedition. The party reached latitude 86 degrees, 33 minutes, north, thus beating Nansen's previous record. He is the author of "The Ascent of Mount St. Elias."
