15th Hanover Holiday Has U.N. for Theme
March 1954

THE fifteenth annual session of Hanover Holiday will be held in Hanover for four days, June 14-17, immediately after the Commencement weekend. The United Nations will be the theme of the 1954 lectures and discussions, it has been announced by Prof. Herbert W. Hill, director of the "alumni college" program.

With the General Assembly of the United Nations scheduled this year to discuss the calling of a 1955 convention to consider revision of the U.N. Charter, the Hanover Holiday lectures will deal with proposed changes and also with the general question of what can be expected of the United Nations Organization in view of what it has accomplished thus far.

Among the speakers definitely scheduled for the eight lecture meetings in June are Dudley W. Orr '29 of Concord, N.H., Alumni Trustee of the College, who is actively interested in U.N. Charter revision, Mr. Hill, Professor of History; John C. Adams, Professor of History; John W. Masland Jr., Professor of Government; and H. Gordon Skilling, Professor of Government. The full schedule of speakers and topics will appear in next month's issue of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE.
