Opportunities for speaking parts in the traditional Class Day exercises were opened yesterday by the 1951 Class Day Committee. The committee announced that it will now accept applications from seniors for the positions of Class Orator, Ivy Orator, Class Poet, Odist, and Chorister. Applications should be filed with Arthur M. Rohn '51, who has been appointed to take charge of the exercises on June 19.
