World's Fair Engineer Will Give Lecture Here Tonight

Colonel Hogan to Discuss Technical Innovations of 1939 Fair

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Colonel John P. Hogan, Chief Engineer and Director of Construction of the New York World's Fair, will present an illustrated talk on "The World's Fair of 1939" in the New Lecture Hall at 7.30 o'clock tonight.

The lecture, which will deal exclusively with the technical and engineering aspects of the Fair, is being sponsored jointly by the Harvard Engineering Society, the Boston Society of Civil Engineers, and the American Society of Civil Engineers.

Colonel Hogan probably has more knowledge of the physical structures at the Fair than any other one man. In his talk he will stress particularly the many new and experimental technical innovations that are being tried out at Flushing.

Hogan is the holder of two honorary degrees from the University, having received an A.B. here in 1903 and an S.B. in the following year.
