P.B.H. COMMITTEE PLANS CONFERENCE

Meeting of Colleges in March To Extend Community Service Work

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At its latest cabinet meeting, the Phillips Brooks House Committee took action on the long-planned conference to further college social service work. March was set as the time for the meeting and a group was selected to organize the colleges for the event.

The conference, which will exchange ideas on community service and attempt to spread the type of work the Phillips Brooks House does to campuses throughout the nation, will be attended by re-resentatives of such colleges as Yale, M. I. T., Brown, Columbia, Tufts, Boston University, Mt. Holyoke, and Vassar.

This is the second time P. B. H. has taken steps to expand social service work. Last summer Harry Newman, Jr. '42 toured west coast colleges in an attempt to spread the P. B. H. ideas. This spring Harvard will take the lead again.

The conference committee under Chairman Thomas H. E. Quimby '40 consists of: John C. Lacey '42, William T. Munson '42, Robert H. Orchard '42, Stanford L. Optner '42, Gerald Eisner '42, and Harry Newman.
