Thirteen occupations, as well as eight different states, the District of Columbia, and Canada, are represented by the seventeen men named as candidates for the six vacancies in the Harvard Board of Overseers which will occur this June. There will be six places to fill instead of the customary five because of the death in September of William Roscoe Thayer '81, whose term as overseer would not have ended until 1926.

The candidates for the six vacancies which will occur in the Harvard Board of Overseers this June, and whose names will appear on the postal ballots to be mailed in April to all holders of Harvard degrees eligible to vote, are as follows:

Charles Moore '78, Judge William S. Andrews '80, Howard Elliott '81, C.E., Dr. Percival J. Eaton '83, George R. Agassiz '84, Roland W. Boyden '85, Judge Frederick P. Cabot '90, Rt. Rev. Charles L. Slattery '91, Alexander M. White '92, Frederick R. Martin '93, George T. Moore '95, Evan Hollister '97, George A. Morison '00, Joseph G. Bradley '02, Charles E. Perkins '04, Chester C. Bolton '05, Rupert E. L. Kittredge '07.

These seventeen candidates were selected by the nominating committee from a list of 313 suggestions. This year there will be only one postal ballot for election of Overseers. Additional nominations may be made up to April 1 by certificate signed by at least 200 graduates eligible to vote. The names of any candidates thus nominated will appear on the official ballot with those of the seventeen candidates named above.
