2500 Upperclassmen Begin Descent On Memorial Hall For Registration

Of the 2500 upperclassmen who must register at Memorial Hall today between nine and one o'clock and Monday between nine and five o'clock, well over 200 have already returned to Cambridge.

Football has brought out an exceptionally large number of candidates this fall. Other factors which have contributed to the pre-college sociability of Cambridge streets are the Bible and Shakespeare exams which have also favorably affected the gate receipts of "Macbeth" and "Othello" in Boston this week, the early issues of the various publications, and the necessity of changing schedules, rooming quarters and so forth.

The smallest Freshman Class in many years registered in Memorial Hall yesterday as 981 men began their careers at Harvard. With the addition of 56 transfer students, provisionally classified as Sophomores and Juniors, the total number of new students was only 1037.
