Thomas H. Mawson, of London, Eng., who is special lecturer on landscape design at the University of Liverpool, will lecture on "The Replanning and Reconstraction of Athens," in the Fogg Museum Lecture Room on Monday, November 27, at 8 o'clock. Mr. Mawson, who is a landscape architect, was commissioned early in 1914 to prepare comprehensive plans for the extension, remodelling and beautification of the city of Athens, at the personal recommendation of the King and Queen of Greece. The lantern slides of Athens and its plan which Mr. Mawson shows in connection with his lectures are allowed to be made public by special permission of his royal clients.

In 1911 Mr. Mawson visited the University and lectured for the School of Landscape Architecture. The present lecture will be his only one at the University on this tour and will be open to all members of the University and Radcliffe.
