Tonight Lowell House will inaugurate its first high table at dinner, when the entire House will dine together. Associates of the House and Tutors, together with a number of invited guests whose names were not revealed, will be the guests of Professor J. L. Coolidge '95, master of Lowell House, at the high table at that time.
This evening's dinner will be the first of a series of weekly affairs which have been planned for the year. At that time, in addition to the faculty and outside guests, the members of the Lowell House Undergraduate Committee will also dine at the high table. This last is in accordance with a plan of Professor Coolidge's whereby student members of the House will dine at the high table on each Monday night during the year. The guests will vary each time, in order that as many as possible of the House members may be accommodated at the table at different times.
The first high table to be held in the new Houses naturally holds a great deal of interest for the outside world. After the formal opening and inspection of the two new Houses last Wednesday, this affair comes next in interest and importance. The dinner will be a most informal affair, according to Professor Coolidge, with the shortest possible time devoted to speeches.
Associates of Lowell House who will be guests tonight are as follows: Alfred North Whitehead, Professor of Philosophy: Edward Kennard Rand '94, Professor of Latin; Roger Bigelow Merriman '96, Gurney Professor of History: Archibald Thompson Davison '05, Professor of Music: Robert Pierpont Blake. Associate Professor of History and Director of the Widener Library: and Harlow Shapley, Paine Professor of Practical Astronomy and Director of the Harvard College Observatory.
