MUNRO INVITED TO LECTURE AT CANADIAN UNIVERSITY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Professor W. B. Munro A.M. '99, Chairman of the Division of History, Government, and Economics, has been appointed by the Governors of the University of Toronto to deliver the Marfleet Foundation Lectures at Toronto in the academic year, 1928-29.

The Marfleet Foundation provides for a series of three lectures to be given triennially "on some topic relating to the history or government of the United States or Canada." Professor Munro could not be reached last night, but it is understood that he will speak on subjects dealing with relations between the two countries.

These lectures have been given on three occasions since the Foundation was established. Chief Justice William Howard Taft, Hon. '05, delivered the first of the series in 1918. He was followed in 1921 by Sir. R. L. Borden, Prime Minister of Canada, and in 1924 by John Bassett Moore, one of the judges of the World Court.
