300TH ANNIVERSARY OF JOHN HARVARD'S DEATH MARKED

Harvard will remember the 300th anniversary of the death of its name-sake today at noon, when President Conant, Jerome D. Green '96, Secretary to the Corporation, and Samuel Eliot Morison '08, official historian of the University, visit the old Charleston burying ground and lay a wreath on the monument of John Harvard.

The monument of John Harvard was erected a century ago by alumni. Harvard died on Sept. 14, 1638, which according to the present calendar is Sept. 24.
