PRINCIPAL SPEAKERS at the Dartmouth Night celebration in Hanover on November 6 will be President Hopkins and Donald B. Aldrich '17, rector of the Church of the Ascension in New York and a trustee of Princeton University. Prof. J. Milton McDaniel will serve as master of ceremonies and John de la Montagne '42 will represent Palaeopitus, which is sponsoring the traditional get-together, this year on the eve of the Dartmouth-Princeton game.
As an innovation, the Hanover gathering this year will be held in Thayer Hall, the upperclass dining center, rather than in Webster Hall, in an effort to make Dartmouth Night a more informal occasion for students and faculty than it has been in recent years. Palaeopitus has announced that it will serve refreshments and that the program by the Band and Glee Club will be supplemented by music by the undergraduate dance bands. The brief speaking program will be held in the large cafeteria, where nearly a thousand can be seated, and the more informal part of the rally will be scattered throughout the hall.
With Hanover as the hub of the Dartmouth Night celebration, alumni gatherings will be held simultaneously throughout the country, and greetings from these meetings will be read to the College as a traditional part of the program.
College representatives at alumni gatherings on November 6 will include Prof. Allen R. Foley 'so, who will speak in Portland, Me.; Edward Jeremiah '30, hockey coach, who will address the North Shore Dartmouth Club in Lynn, Mass.; Robert P. Fuller '36, director of athletic publicity, who will speak in Philadelphia; and Edward T. Chamberlain '36, assistant to the Dean of Freshmen, who will speak in Montpelier, Vt.
At earlier alumni meetings, the night before the Yale game, Director of Athletics William H. McCarter 'l9 spoke in Hartford, Conn.; Prof. Frank Maloy Anderson, emeritus faculty member, in New Haven; and Prof. Herbert W. Hill in Springfield, Mass.
