The formal exercises of Commencement week will begin tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock when Presidet Lowell will deliver the Baccalaureate Sermon to the Senior Class in Appleton Chapel.
Seniors will assemble in front of Holworthy at 3.30 o'clock wearing caps and gowns, and will form in columns of two. The procession, led by the Class Day officers and headed by the first marshal and the chairman of the Class Day Committee, will march past Hollis and, crossing the Yard, will pass between Thayer and University Hall to Appleton Chapel. Upon reaching the Chapel, the procession will pass to the front of the main aisle. The marshal and the chairman will then walk down the aisle dividing off the pairs into the pews. All will remain standing until the marshal and chairman have returned to their seats, when they will sit at a signal from the chairman. After the service, the Seniors will leave in the same order in which they entered.
With the exception of a few seats on the side reserved for officers of the University and their families, who will enter by the north side door, the floor will be reserved for seniors. The entire gallery will be open to the public.
Reception by President Lowell.
After the service, President and Mrs. Lowell will hold a reception for Seniors at their home, 17 Quincy street, from 5 to 6.30 o'clock.
