Ceremonies marking the emergence of India as an independent dominion will be observed at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon at Phillips Brooks House by the Hindusthan Students' Association of Greater Boston, secretary Amarjit Singh, 2G announced yesterday.

Today, Singh pointed out, is the official date for the commencement of his country's political liberation.

Hoisting of the new national banner, communal singing of India's new national anthem, and a recitation of the citizen's pledge of acceptance will highlight a program which also includes three speeches.

Robert Ulich, professor of Education, is scheduled to discuss the general topic of liberty, with emphasis on the responsibilities that will accompany the new independent status of the former "diamond of the British crown."
