The big note of the month is the announcement by Bob Harding '05 that the Five Year Class Dinner will take place on the evening of May 11, probably at Schrafft's in Boston. Definite notice will be sent you later. The past success of this annual Reunion dinner points to another record attendance. Last year, 64 men of the classes '01, '02, '03, '04 and '05 mingled with the utmost informality and enjoyed every moment. Set down in your date book the evening of May 11 as the date you have with your old friends of the campus in college days.
