ENTIRE CLASS AT RECEPTION

VARIOUS SPEAKERS ADDRESSED THE FRESHMAN CLASS LAST EVENING.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Practically the whole class of 1919 attended the reception at Phillips Brooks House last evening. W. J. Bingham '16, who presided, made the first speech. He pointed out the advantages to be gained by a man in some form of Phillips Brooks House activity, particularly social service work.

A. Beane '11 was next on the program, and spoke chiefly on the increased opportunity and responsibility which comes to a man on his entrance into college life.

Dr. A. P. Fitch '00, the third speaker, told of the advantages of being a young man at a time when the future promises such huge developments in social and industrial life.

R. H. Stiles '16 and E. W. Mahan '16 spoke on publications and athletics, their chief point being that for a man to do justice to himself, his class and the College, he must actively ally himself with some form of undergraduate activity.

Professor G. H. Palmer, who gave the final address, treated of the temptations of college life.

Songs by the Glee Club, and refreshments served after the speaking, completed the entertainment.
