Mr. Maurice Donnay and Mr. Andre Chevrillion Chancellor and Director respectively of the French Academy, will be given an informal luncheon by President Lowell Thursday noon after which they will probably visit the Widener Library and make a tour of the Yard if their limited time permits.
The academicians have been sent as a delegation to represent the French Academy at the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the birth of Moliere. Mr. Chevrillion has gained wide renown for his works on English literature and has also written many books on travel. Mr. Donnay is one of the best known living French dramatists, most of his works dealing with the theme of love.
This is the first time in its history that the French Academy has set a delegation to a foreign country. The Frenchmen visited Princeton and Columbia last week. No Moliere celebration has been planned at the University while the visitors are in Cambridge, due to their limited stay.
