FAMOUS PENOLOGIST WILL TELL OF REFORMING CRIMINALS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Under the auspices of the newly organized Undergraduate Speakers' Committee of Phillips Brooks House Association a series of meetings to be addressed by men prominent in national affairs and among the clergy has been arranged. Thus far only six dates have been filled but a more complete schedule will be announced at a later date.

On Wednesday, October 22, Reverend Charles F. Potter of the West Side Unitarian Church in New York City will address the first meeting at 8 o'clock. On November 5 Mr. C. L. Dawes will lecture.

On Friday, December 5, the Reverend John Roach Straton, of Calvary Church, New York City, prominent preacher and author, is scheduled to speak. Monday, December 15, will see Dr. Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick again speaking to members of the University. Last year when he conducted Sunday services in Appleton Chapel not a single seat was empty. The church was besieged by those desiring to hear the well-known Modernist.

On Wednesday, January 14, Professor T. G. Soares, Professor of Practical Theology at the University of Chicago, will speak. Following him, on February 11, the next and last speaker to be scheduled thus far will be Dr. Thomas Mott Osborne '84, well-known penologist, who has devoted his entire life to the study of reform work among criminals. His experience as a welfare worker will be outlined so as to give some advice to those members of Phillips Brooks House who are engaged in Social Service work.
