Mr. Thomas H. Mawson, of the University of Liverpool, will lecture on "The Replanning and Reconstruction of Athens: An Example of Modern City Planning," in the Fogg Lecture Room this evening at 8 o'clock. The talk will be under the auspices of the Graduate Schools of Landscape Architecture and of Business Administration.

Mr. Mawson is an English landscape architect who was commissioned in 1914 to prepare plans for the remodelling of the city of Athens. At the personal recommendation of the king and queen of Greece, he undertook this task and will speak tonight on the progress of his interesting work. His talk will be illustrated by lantern slides released by special permission of the Greek sovereigns.
