TRINITY NAMES A NEW PRESIDENT
by the Hartford Times

Hartford will be glad to welcome Albert Charles Jacobs when he comes to assume the presidency of Trinity College. It has been apparent that the trustees were making an unhurried study of the possibilities of several American educators. Dr. Jacobs, now chancellor of the University of Denver, is an excellent choice.
The long search for a new president of Trinity College, begun in the summer of 1951, has ended with the appointment of Albert C. Jacobs, Chancellor of the University of Denver. Dr. Jacobs, Michiganborn Rhodes Scholar, has devoted his career to education, with the accent on law. At Oxford he was not only a student, but also a lecturer. Beginning in the twenties he taught at Columbia University, and gradually took increasing responsibility in administration. Thus he became Provost of the University, and was assistant ro the president when General Eisenhower was there. It was three years ago that he left Columbia to assume the leadership of the University of Denver. And when during the war Dr. Jacobs had taken rime out for service in the Navy, he rose to the rank of Captain, which is unusual for a civilian in the Navy. Thus Trinity, for the third time in its history, chooses as president a man who is not a clergyman. Its second non-clerical president was the most recent one, G. Keith Funston, now head of the New York Stock Exchange, had a career in business rather than in education before coming to Trinity. And he was able to score an outstanding success in refinancing and rebuilding the college during his relatively brief tenure. This was a highly necessary service in the endless struggle of the small liberal arrs college to make ends meet. It is still uncertain when President Jacobs will be free to take over. This will incline Trinity to look with renewed gratitude upon its acting pr~sident, Dean Arthur H. Hughes. Dean Hughes has ably filled a gap left by President Funston's withdrawal as be has before between the death of President Remsen B. Ogilby and the arrival of Mr. Funston after the war. Trinity took a long time in finding its new president. And well it might. For as A. Northey Jones of New York, chairman of the selection committee, remarked during the search, the college will have to live for some time with its new president. Dr. Jacobs was known at Columbia for his outgiving friendliness, as well as for the professional competence to which his record bears witness. Trinity's future is now in the hands of an educator. The new president, the college, and the larger community alike can look forward to a happy association.
Prior to going to Denver three years ago, Dr. Jacobs was at Columbia University for 23 years, as lecturer, then professor in the law school. For a few years of the war he was on duty with the Navy in Washington, ending that service as a captain. Then came a return to Columbia where he was for a few years closely associated with General Eisenhower. Administrative posts at Columbia included those of provost, assistant to the president for veteran's affairs and assistant to the president. Prior to going to Columbia, Dr. Jacobs taught at Oxford University where he had been a Rhodes Scholar for three years immediately following his graduation from the University of Michigan in 1921. This record of preparation and university experience assures Trinity of splendid leadership. While Trinity is national in its constituency, the college naturally has an especially close relationship to Connecticut and to Hartford, so there is in State and city a keen interest in the choice of man to direct affairs On the Hill. The three most recent presidents, Flavel C. luther, Remsen B. Ogilby and G. Keith Funston have all taken parr in civic affairs. Dr. Jacobs, undoubtedly, will do so. Trinity now has the largest enrollment in its history. During the last several years the college bas enjoyed a material upbuilding and it has retained its place among liberal arts colleges with highest academic standards. There are problems, plenty of them, but none that cannot be met through continuing efforts of those who make up the Trinity family and the friends who believe in this splendid type of institution. Dr. Jacobs' task will not be an easy one, but no president could ask for more interested support of his administration than is assured by undergraduates, alumni, faculty, trustees and other thousands who have close ties 'Neath the Elms.

Albert C. Jacobs Elected Fourteenth President The election of Albert Charles Jacobs, Chancellor of the University of Denver, as Fourteenth Presidem of the College brings to Trinity a distinguished scholar and an able administrator. His academic background as Rhodes Scholar, professor of law at Columbia University, and Provost of that University makes him admirably quali fied to take over the President's office in Williams Memorial. The selection committee of the Trustees under rhe leadership of A. Northey Jones, '17, recommended Dr. Jacobs to the Board nor only because of his splendid academic and administrative record bur also because his personality has made him popular with his faculty and his srudents. The committee also found a man wirh a deep religious conviction, having served while at Columbia as a member of rhe Board of Religious Education of the Diocese of New York and chairman of the Commission on College Work, and at the present rime being a vestryman of Sr. John's Cathedral in Denver. All the undergraduates, faculty, and staff eagerly await Dr. Jacobs' arrival ar 115 Vernon Srreer and believe rhar his administration will lead the College to new heights. Born in Birmingham, Michigan, on May 21, 1900, a son of rhe late Albert Poole Jacobs and Grace W. Grinnell, Dr. Jacobs graduated from rhe University of Michigan in 1921. His srudy rhere was interrupted by service as a Private in World W ar I. He was selected a Rhodes Scholar and named a "don" at Oxford, rhe only American ever ro receive a lecturing fellowship. He remained in England for six years as a lecturer in jurisprudence ar Oriel and Braesnose Colleges while earning rhe degrees of Bachelor of Arrs in 1923, Bachelor of Civil Law in 1924 and Master of Ans in 1927. Returning to this country Dr. Jacobs married Miss Lorerra Field Beal on August 27, 1927. She is a graduate of rhe University of Michigan, Class of 1924. They have two daughters: Loretta Grinnell, now

Mrs. John W. Edwards, Jr., of Ann Arbor; Sarah Huntington; and a son, Travis Beal. Ar Columbia Dr. Jacobs was appointed as a lecturer in law. In 1928 he was promoted to assistant professor and the following year ro associate professor. He became a full professor in 1936. During World War II, he was commissioned a Lieutenant Commander in the Naval Reserve in 1942, and served as Captain when he was direcror of the Casualties and Dependents Welfare Division of the Bureau of Naval Personnel in Washingron, D. C. Upon his return tO Columbia early in 1946, he was named assistant tO the president for veterans affairs and later assistant to the president for general academic administration. When General Eisenhower was elected President of Columbia in 1947, Dr. Jacobs was appointed Provost of the University, serving as the General's assistant and heading the University during his absences. Three years ago Dr. Jacobs accepted the Chancellorship of the University of Denver and is credited
3
with restoring the University to a position of leadership among independent universities in the West after a difficult period of post-war adjustment. He made an extensive reorganization of both the curriculum and faculty as well as reshaping the curriculum tO meet the needs of the citizens of Denver.
Barber Comments Commenting on the appointment of Dr. Jacobs, Harmon T. Barber, '19, President of the National Alumni Association, said: "For many months, the selection of the new President has been eagerly awaited by the Alumni. Our patience has been amply rewarded by the announcement that Dr. Jacobs is the man who next will guide the fortunes of our Alma Mater. We congratulate the Trustees on the excellence of their choice. To Dr. Jacobs go our best wishes for success with his new responsibilities and a sincere pledge of wholehearted cooperation and assistance in any way he may suggest to advance the interests of Trinity College."
Introductory Address of President-elect Jacobs delivered to the Trustees, Faculty and Student Body in Convocation at the Chapel, November 8 As your President-elect, it is a rare privilege to greet you for the first time, and particularly so on this very happy occasion-the Alumni Homecoming and the dedication of our splendid new library. I greet you with deep humility, fully conscious of the great responsibilities soon to be mine, of the trust which you have placed in me. May God grant me the strength successfully to execute in the tradition of my distinguished predecessors the functions of my high office. I look forward with great enthusiasm to joining the Trinity family not later, I hope, than March lsr. I hope even it may be earlier. But I cannot leave Denver until certain problems at the University are resolved. It is for me a very happy circumstance that my first official contact with the College it will be my privilege tO serve during my remaining years is with her two most important parts-the Students and the Faculty. You and those before you have in the nearly one hundred thirty years of her history made Trinity the splendid college it is today. To you I pledge the best that in me lies to uphold in the years ahead the honored traditions of this College, to continue the sound development so effectively begun by my illustrious predecessor Dr. Funston. You are naturally interested in knowing something about the person the Trustees have selected tO be your President. Born in Michigan at the turn of the century, I was educated at rhe University of my native state and at Oxford. Most of my life has been devoted tO legal reaching-from 1924 tO 1927 at Oxford, and from 1927 to 1949 except for nearly four years in the N avy, at Columbia. Following the war, I was drafted for administrative duty as well, becoming the Provost of Columbia University. As such I was privileged to work
very closely with General Eisenhower, our nation's great Presidentelect. I was responsible, subject to his general supervision-his alter ego I was called-for the administration of that sister institution on Morningside Heights. November 1, 1949 I left that extremely happy association to become the Chancellor of the University of Denver, the only independent non-tax supported University in the vast Rocky Mountain region. There are many in the West who have voiced surprise that I now return to the East. Almost as much surprise as some expressed when in 1868 Mark Twain first visited the beautiful City of Hartford and soon decided to remain, to enjoy here his most productive literary years. But I do not come to you as thorough a Westerner as Mark Twain. In fact, I feel that my family and I are returning home, to the region where we have spent many of our most cherished years. But the decision to leave Denver was a most difficult and soul-searching one. We have been extremely happy there. I have learned much on that last land frontier where the love of freedom and the zeal for individual initiative are still so virile. Several considerations prompted me to accept the gracious invitation of the Trustees. In the first place, I did so because of the high standing and the unique characteristics of Trinity: a liberal arrs college of moderate size, enjoying the highest academic prestige, with a distinguished faculty of scholarly teachers, and a splendid student body national in scope. Trinity is noted, as the Bulletin so well states, "for its steady insistence on the fundamental and unchanging values and requirements of a liberal education." With this I am in complete accord. The primary function of this college has always been, and must continue to be, the effective training of young men for full re-
4
sponsibilities of citizenship and leadership, never so direly needed as today. Ir has as irs core of strength a liberal education, which is in essence education for a free people. This was well expressed on your Commencement Day, 1849, by Bishop John Williams, the fourth President of the College: "All parrs of this course of human learning and liberal study are to be taught as intimately connected with rhe whole of future life. It will nor do to give the young man the impression rhar his college life is, as ir were, bur a parenthesis in his existence, isolated and separated, unconnected with either what precedes or follows ir. Nor so. Ir gathers up rhe requirements, rhe power, rhe faculties of earlier days, ir directs and gives a tone to these same things as they stretch onward to mature life. " Here, more than a hundred years ago, by your distinguished nineteenth century President, was expressed a sound principle of modern education. What greater adventure, what more noble pursuit is there than this, rhe preparation for life itself. I heartily join with you in this signal endeavor. I welcome the opportunity which Trinity affords to work closely with faculty and students. Trinity takes pride, I know, in being a personal . college. I till recall at Oxford the close personal contact between student and teacher. I have sorely missed this contact of late. May I assure you that my office and our home will always be open to each and every one of you. I firmly believe that independent education is a vital necessity for the continued strength of our country and for the preservation of our freedoms. In the words of Mr. Irving S. Olds, retired Chairman of the Board, United States Steel Corporation, "To preserve our democratic system of freedom and opContinued on page 17
Hallden Addition Nears Completion Construction on the new Hallden Laboratory addition is well under way and Professor Lockwood expects that the new quarters will be occupied by the middle of December. The new addition of two classrooms and more laboratory space will relieve the present crowded conditions in the Engineering Laboratory. It will also provide a new maintenance shop in its basement for which funds were donated by the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving. The College is most grateful to Mr. Karl W. Hallden for his generosity in making this fine gift possible.
Dr. Sterling B. Smith Promoted To Chen1 istry Professorship Dr. Sterling B. Smith, member of the Chemistry Department for the past twenty-nine years, has been promoted ro the rank of full professor. He has been Professor Krieble's invaluable right hand man ever since he joined the faculty in 1923. Promoted ro assistant professor in 1927, and to associate professor in 1938, Dr. Smith is well known ro hundreds of Trinity men for his able and thorough teaching. His research in several of the pure science aspects of physical chemistry is particularly well known especially for phase rule studies of three and four component system.
19 52 Gives Recorders The Class of 1952 has presented the College with four tape recorders which the Language Departments have put into immediate use in their laboratory courses. This gift meets a real need which the College could not otherwise have afforded and also makes possible marked improvements in presenting languages to the undergraduates.
Presents Rare Book Dr. Jerome P. Webster, '10, trustee of the College and chairman of the Library Associates, has presented the Library with a handsome work on oriental carpets in two folio volumes. It is the English edition of a book published by the Imperial and Royal Austrian Commercial Museum in Vienna in 1892. One of only 400 copies printed, it is a complete history of carpetmaking from the earliest times to 1800 when the really fine Persian work ended. In addition to the

Born in New Haven fifty-three years ago, Dr. Smith graduated from Yale in 1920 and received his Master's degree there in 1923. He then joined the Trinity faculty and worked for his doctorate at New York University which he was awarded in 1927.
Robertson reports $ 5100 Balance In his first report as Treasurer, J. Kenneth Robertson announced that with thanks to the Alumni Fund the College has closed its books for the fiscal year of 1951-52 ending June 30 with an excess of $5,163 over expenses and appropriations. Mr. Robertson pointed out the increasingly vital role played by the Alumni Fund which exceeded its $50,000 goal and contributed $13,720 more than in 1951. Gifts from other sources increased by $35,259; investment income by $16,718; and student fees by $7,842. These increases in income gave the college a total effective operating income of nearly $1,309,000, an increase of $73,000 over the previous year. Strict economy in operation held the increase in expenses to only $14,619 over 1950-51. With the remaining $57,543, the Trustees granted a salary raise for the faculty and staff effective September 1, 1952, and paid
5
for the moving of the Library to the new building. Both of these expenditures actually will be paid in 1952-53 but have been funded from the 1951-52 budget. The Buildings Under Construction account totaled $1,196,000 at the close of the fiscal year which was an increase of $904,000 during the year. Of t4i amount, $789,000 was expended on the new Library, and $115,000 on the addition to the Central Heating Plant. It is hoped that funds will soon become available to convert the old stacks in the North wing of Williams Memorial into faculty and administrative offices. The new Hearing Plant will provide sufficient boiler capacity to handle the additional load required by the new Library路. Endowment funds increased by $166,000 during the year, represented by $138,000 in gifts and bequests, $25,800 in profits on the sale of securities, and $2,000 in income added ro principal.

New Library Becomes Heart of Dedication ceremonies at which President Charles W. Cole of Amherst College conceded char the new Trinity Library has "resources richer than any small college in New England," highlighted one of the biggest weekends in college history November 7-9 as alumni homecoming, the Sophomore Hop, our 75th anniversary of intercollegiate football, the Amherst soccer and football games, the introduction of Presidentelect Jacobs, and the new library brought some 6,000 people to the campus . The sparkling new library's decorator colors, light birch modern furniture, well lighted reading spaces and book collections, and irs well planned layout brought compliments from the hundreds who toured the building, inspected book treasures, and even saw an exhibit of the Emily Lowe Award modern ManI.arran art. Keith Funston returned from Wall Street to accept the building which climaxed accomplishments of his Trinity Administration.

and Watkinson collections. President Cole, as principal speaker, congratulated Trinity on rhe "happy marriage" of the two libraries, picturing the Watkinson Library as a "somewhat neg lected spinster, rhe Trinity Library as the eager swain, President Funston as the skillful marriage broker, the trustees of both libraries as far-sighted well wishers, and the Old Dominion Foundation as the fairy God-mother which by the wave of its financial wand made the marriage possible." After inspecting the building, he pronounced ir "ample . . . at the center of the campus . . . and with every facility chat modern ingenuity can devise. " James Brewster, '08, placed on permanent loan to the College a portrait of James Hammond Trumbull, first Watkinson librarian, owned by the Connecticut Stare Library. Noting the Trinity tradition of relig ious devotion, ecclesiastical respect for ocher Communions, and sound learning, Bishop Walter H . Gray, H .

Eleven Upsets Amherst: Post 6-2 Record Captain Hum DelMastro's inspired leadership and sterling allaround play will be remembered for many years as his team concluded a successful season of six victOries against two defeats. Given scant chance of winning half of its games, the Blue and Gold defeated Dickinson ( 21-0), Hobart ( 34-0) , and Tufts ( 20-12) before being set back by a rugged Colby eleven (13-6). Returning tO the vicrory trail the team swept over Middlebury (41-14) and surprised scrappy Coast Guard ( 20-0) . Don Johnston's thrilling 86 yard punt return gave the Hillroppers a 7-0 edge over Amherst while Wesleyan eked out a 7-6 win in the season's finale. Dan Jessee, Art Christ and Karl Kurth produced another superbly coached team. The graduation of 26 lettermen forced them tO give up the two platoon system, and eight members of the team had tO see service both ways in the close contests. The versatile DelMastro, Bernie Bogoslofski, great pass catching end, and rugged guards Rog St. Pierre and Bill Creason were the bulwarks of the team that scored 155 points ro the opposition's 46. Other line stalwarts were center and backerup, Bill Wills, and burly tackles, Frank Lentz and Paul Arcari. Al Smith, Lou Magelaner and Dave Crosier developed into capable ends. Jim Logan rook over the quarterbacking in creditable fashion and his passing was a constant threat particularly against Wesleyan when he completed eleven for 154 yards. Halfback Mike Thomas, despite a broken finger and roe, became a powerful rusher and 133 pound scatback Gene Binda made several good gains. Hal Wynkoop and George Hill ran well while Don JohnstOn played strong defensive ball. The team journeyed tO Carlisle, Pennsylvania, for the season's opener with Dickinson. Captain DelMastro caught a sixteen yard pass from Logan for the first score and Bogoslofski blocked a punt ro set up the second tally. The final tally came at the end of a 54 yard
drive with Mike Thomas going over. The Blue and Gold line completely bottled up Dickinson's running attack. Against Hobart, Captain DelMastro piled up 176 yards in 25 carries and scored two touchdowns. He also added 80 yards on three punt returns. Defensively the Blue and Gold held the visitOrs tO 101 yards and picked up four enemy passes. The Hilltoppers overcame a two touchdown deficit in the second half tO score a thrilling 20-12 victory over Tufts. The Jumbos recovered a fumble on the opening kickoff and scored in the first half minute. The visitors kept pressing their attack and turned a pass interception into another score just before the second quarter ended. But the game changed entirely in the second half with Logan throwing a perfect 49 yard pass tO Bogoslofski for the first tOuchdown. DelMastro sparked the next offensive thrust, and Binda swept the end to put the Blue and Gold ahead. Again DelMastro and Wynkoop caught fire, but a determined Tufts line stiffened forcing Logan ro take tO the air on a well executed pass to Al Smith for the final score as the two teams battled each other ro
a standstill in the final period. Once again Colby upset an undefeated Trinity team coming from behind in the fourth period to pound out two touchdowns. Bogoslofski recovered a Colby fumble early in the game and Captain DelMastro drove over for a tOuchdown. The two rivals played through the third period on even terms until the Mules' Charlie Windhorst broke loose for two tOuchdowns in less than six minutes. Completely dominating the first half play the Blue and Gold scored four times in the first half against Middlebury as Thomas and Hill ran wild. Jim Logan did a fine quarterbacking job that completely confused the Panthers. The Hilltop attack continued in high gear against Coast Guard with Logan hurling two tOuchdown passes to "Bogey" and "Hum." The rushing statistics showed an average of three yards a try with DelMastro and Thomas doing most of the carrying. Before 4,000 Homecoming Day spectatOrs, Amherst, 1952 Little Three Champions, and Trinity battled to a standstill for 56 minutes until Don JohnstOn's electrifying 86 yard punt return. The Bantams outrushed the Jeffs and also

made two determined goal line stands in the hard fought struggle. The Wesleyan game was bitterly contested with DelMastro's punting featuring the first half. Two of his quick kicks went for over 60 yards. In the third quarter the Cardinals ground over for a score and added the conversion. At the start of the final period they again threatened, bur Johnston intercepted a pass on our 11 yard line. Logan's aerials plus DelMastro's and Thomas' smashes finally scored. Lentz was rushed as he tried to convert and his kick went off line. Trin drove to the Wes 32 yard line in the final minute, bur the Cards braced to take the ball.
Freshmen Undefeated Paced by stocky Charlie Sticka of Natick, Mass., who raced to four scores the yearlings opened their season with a 34-0 victory at Wesleyan. With the forward wall averaging 180 pounds and giving him good blocking, the speedy Sticka made two of his scores on pitchours and two by intercepting passes. Two hundred pound Tim Clark from Winnetka, Illinois, fell on a Cardinal fumble for the other score. Bob Alexander, former Bulkeley High ace, handled the quarterback post well and Fred St. Jean, fastest man on the squad and captain of Danbury High last fall, made some good gains. Gerry Pauley of Bellerose, Long Island and Ed Campbell, an old Bulkeley star, were particularly effective as defensive ends. Comanager Mike Abel came off the bench to kick four points after touchdown. The yearlings continued their winning ways with victories over Monson ( 27-6 ) , Amherst (14-0) and Mass. U ni versi ty ( 19-12) for an undefeated season. Coach Fred Booth built his attack around the flashy Sticka who should make an enviable record with the varsity. Fred also thinks that backs Jack Evans, Bob Alexander, Fred St. Jean and Jerry Maher, and linemen Gerry Pauley, Dave Renken, Tim Clark and Ray Aramini will be heard from next fall.
Clarke Resigns As Sw imming Coach
Walter Trumbull '03 A warded Citation
Dean Joseph Clarke, the College's only swimming coach, has resigned his coaching duties because of the pressure of his administrative work as Dean of Students. He will be succeeded by Arthur H. Christ, assistant swimming coach and football line coach since 1949. Joe came in 1928 when Trowbridge Memorial Pool was opened and developed some fine teams during the years. Perhaps his most successful season was two years ago when the team tied Brown for the New England Intercollegiate tide. Ever interested in youthful swimmers, Joe started the Trinity College Preparatory School Chamionship meet sixteen years ago. This meet is keenly looked forward to by the leading teams in this area .
The College on October 27 cited Walter S. Trumbull, '03, as the "alumnus most distinguished in interpretation of the ideal of sports" and awarded him a gold football on the 50th anniversary of his having won a varsity letter. Known to Trinity men particularly as the author of the "Sportsman's Code" which is the motto of our physical education program, Mr. Trumbull is a retired New York City spores editor, syndicated columnist, radio commentator and motion picture executive. The award was made by Acting President Hughes at the annual press party in Memorial Field House.

75th Anniversary November 22 was the 75th anniversary of Trinity's first intercollegiate football game against Yale at New Haven. Yale rolled up seven goals and eleven touchdowns, while keeping Trinity scoreless.
Boosters Tie Wesleyan and Amherst Closing the season with tie contests against Wesleyan (1-1) and Amherst (2-2) the booters finished with a fine record of five wins and one loss to Yale (2-1). Great credit goes to new Coach Roy Darb, former All-American player at West Chester State Teachers College, for building up this well balanced team of Juniors and Sophomores. Veteran halfback Ron Humphries will be the only man lost to the squad by graduation. Captain Neil Mutschler, who will undoubtedly be named to the AllNew England and to the All-North reams, led his youthful and aggressive ream tO five shut our victOries in Ocrober. Against Worcester Tech, M. I. T., and Tufts rhe score was 4-0. Massachusetts University was beaten 2-0 in a hard fought struggle while Clark University fell 10-0.

Continued from page 4 portunity is, I believe, the compelling responsibility of our private (colleges and ) universities." The strength of independent education, may I remind you, is essential for the continuance of the freedom so generally enjoyed by our fine tax supported institutions. I am not willing, in spite of financial problems, to accept the view that independent education is a relic of a by-gone day and that we should turn over to government the whole education of our youth. The tragic truth is that in the past two decades we have sought from Washington many things we should have the will to provide for ourselves. Let us never do so with education. In the second place, I accepted your gracious invitation because of the character of the community in which Trinity is located and, after living for three years in Denver, I was very particular about this matter. Here in this splendid City of Hartford are healthy resources which bid well for the future . While Trinity gathers strength from, and in turn provides meritorious service for all parts of the nation, her location in Hartford is, indeed, most fortunate. Here are combined qualities and resources which have brought strength and greatness to the American character . In the third place, I accepted your invitation because of Trinity's religious heritage. The ties between the Episcopal Church and the College are ties of tradition and not Jaw. I am proud to be associated with an institution having such a sound religious tradition; proud that our founding fathers ordained that "the religious tenets of any person" should not be "a condition of any admission to any privilege," establishing thereby the principle of freedom in education. May this always endure! May Trinity continue to instill in her students the fundamental appreciation of spiritual values! May each student during his years on our campus intensify the ties with the Church of his faith! Why is all this so important? We are engaged, my friends, in a struggle of prolonged duration with the dread forces of totalitarianism. In this conflict, to emerge victorious, our nation must be strong intellectually, morally and spiritually as well as physically and economically and nothing is more important than spiritual faith. The guidance and inspiration of religion, through the ages man's most stabilizing influence, can go far in resolving current problems, in seeking truth, in reestablishing faith . A century ago on September 26, 1852, in a sermon delivered to the Faculty and Students of Trinity, the Reverend Thomas M. Clark, Rector of Christ Church in Hartford, made a significant and discerning observation regarding what he termed "certain great political, social and ethical problems upon which the destiny of mao, for weal or for woe, is intimately susContinued on page 24

1951-52 Alumni Fund Report In August 1951 the Executive Co=ittee of the National Alumni Association approved a goal of 50,000 for the 1951-52 Alumni Fund, for the payment of increased faculty and staff salaries voted by the Trustees in July 1951. The Alumni Fund Co=ittee, Class Agents, and particularly the Parents' Co=ittee deserve a great deal of credit, as on June 30th, the closing date of the Fund, $51 ,521.64 had been received from the 1896 contributors. In addition, alumni gave much of the $2 1,000 subscribed to the Student Emergency Fund to aid Football Captain Bill Goralski. Much of the credit for the success of the '52 Fund goes to the Parents' Co=ittee headed by Cyril S. Stanley, father of James Stanley '52. Mr. Stanley and his Co=ittee raised $15,347.1 3, almost 30 per cent of our goal, from 165 parents. This more than doubled the amount raised from 85 parents last year. We were extremely fortunate in having a Chairman of the Parents' Co=ittee such as Mr. Stanley, who made numerous trips to the College, signed personal letters to all parents of our students, and encouraged all through the drive with his enthusiasm. As noted on page 23 of this report, in the four-year comparison, our total alumni percentage since 1949 has increased from 22.1 to 35.6, and our graduate percentage from 28.3 to 44.8. We had hoped that this year would have seen at least 50 per cent of our graduates contributing and hope that this will be so next year. The average alumni gift was $19.88, an increase of $1. 30 over last year. The splendid performance of the recent classes of '49, '50 and '51 in percentage of contributors has reflected in the average gift since these many gifts of younger alumni were naturally modest. Their enthusiasm, particularly under the Burgess Plan is our greatest resource for the future. It is interesting to note that the Class of '50 was given a quota of $500.00 and raised $990.00. Again this year the Executive Secretary of the Alumni Fund was most fortunate in the choice of the Chairman, George C. Capen '10, an alumnus who has always given freely of his time to Trinity. Mr. Capen was a leader in every phase of the Fund's activities. Credit should also be given to Sidney H. W hipple '22, Chairman of the Special Gifts Co=ittee; to both L. Barton Wilson '37, Chairman of Promotion, and to George Malcolm-Smith '2 5, Vice Chairman, for the many hours spent in writing copy and planning ideas for mailings; and to the 64 class agents, listed later in this report.

Continued /1'om page 17 pended ." Karl Marx had then only four years before issued in Europe his Communist Manifesto of class struggle. Communism in 1852 was nor the dread menace ir was to become a cenrury later. Yet in rhis Address ro the Faculty and Students of Trinity there was a recognition of future decisions upon which " the destiny of man . . . is intimately suspended," decisions facing the world today. In the present world struggle between communism and the free world I conceive this section as again being a center of intellecrual and spirirual crusade against nor only enemies from
without bur also from within. Many well-meaning persons have been raking us down a path of ever increasing governmental controls, a dangerous path indeed. Our constitutional rights have also been threatened by the near destruction of the balance of power among the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. I am confident that this section, which did so much originally ro establish constitutional safeguards, will again voice positive leadership in the restoration of constitutional principles. In this crusade, independent colleges and universities must play a leading role. I recall rhe wise words of my
Operation Ten Percent Each year since the Alumni Fund was reorganized under the Alumni Association's supervision five years ago, your Fund Committee has met with College officials to discuss the most pressing needs of the coming year. Last year the most urgent requirement was an increase in faculty salaries, and we alumni may take some pride in the achievement of this aim. This year the problem is to obtain sufficient income to help offset the general increase in the cost of operating the college. This means that Trinity needs our assistance in continuing such projects as the salary increases granted the faculty, the awarding of additional scholarships to deserving students, the defrayment of increased costs of maintenance, and the operating expense of the new library. To achieve these desirable ends, $60,000 is needed. The raising of that amount is the responsibility of us alumni, though, as in the past few years, we shall have the gracious and generous assistance of the parents of Trinity undergraduates. A survey of last year's Fund results reveals that a ten percent increase in the amount of individual gifts, plus a ten percent increase in the number of givers, is needed to reach this year's goal. I have no doubt that you understand the need, and that you will respond.
old friend , the Very Reverend James A. Pike, Dean of rhe Cathedral of Sr. John the Divine in New York. "Acrually," he said, " there are only two ways to keep a lor of people in line: they must be held together spiritually from the inside, or beat together physically from the outside. Thus what is called for to save us from outward tyranny is the inward source of self-d iscipline." My friends, self-discipline is the goal of education. I shall ever hold inviolate the blessing of academic freedom , which is, after all , nothing more than the specific application of the freedoms inherent in the American way of life. This freedom, however, entails a grave responsibility : it is a rrust of the highest sanctity. It is not a license deliberately to deceive. A person pledged to follow "the parry line" is not free to seek and to teach the truth having denied to himself any bur one approach and one conclusion. Again, I shall never forget that the soul of a college is not brick and mortar, but the men who compose it. To you of the student body, I pledge my wholehearted support in furthering the various phases of your college life: your campus organizations and societies, your fraternities which play such a vital role, your inter-collegiate athletics, for I believe that clean, hard-hitting competition is a great builder of American character. I am eagerly looking forward to working with you. Bur I have much ro learn. I shall need the help of everyone connected with and interested in the college. Trinity has a magnificent heritage. Building upon our sound foundations , let us together make Trinity an ever more vital instirurion in the challenging present and furure.
