A memorial service for Lieutenant Francis R. Austin '20, D. S. C., of Jamaica Plain, who died from wounds received in action, will be held in the First Parish Church of Brookline, at the corner of Walnut and Warren streets, tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock.

The Distinguished Service Cross was awarded him posthumously for conspicuous bravery in action.
