1146 STATE ST. TEL. 4-8156 4, Large Bequest To Aid Teaching (Continued from First Page) at the age of 83. He was not an alumnus of Williams or other college, but had treasured since boyhood the family connection with Mark Hopkins and. Williams.

Samuel's father was 'in Alabama when he died on. the eve of the Civil War. The boy was sent north to. Connecticut to live with relatives. He later went to work in New York and prospered.

funds of first gift to in Williams memory of was. the a great theologican. Rev. Samuel Hopkins, a distant cousin. Later gifts, the income of which became available upon Mr.

Hopkin's death, total slightly over $2,100,000. Williams is also named residuary legatee of the estate, but the amount of this is not yet established, and the sum will not he comparable to the already announced gifts, it. was said. There is no question of a change in size of the student body, will remain at 800, President Dennett said. The money will "be used solely for improvement teaching.

The. program announced makes it clear that Dr. Dennett regards the fund. merely as the key of his long range plans. since considerable more funds are needed.

for scholarships and: equipment. New faculty members mean new classrooms, new library facilities, more leaves of absence for research. more pension funds and some additional administrative New Equipment. Needed After. reviewing the needs of the college as far.

as. faculty additions and scholarship funds are concerned, Dr. Dennett passed on to the equipment needs. He said the Thompson laboratories of physics, chemistry and biology were erected for a smaller enrollment; Lawrence Hall, the art museum, is not fireproof; there is not space for a music department to house the gift made by Paul Whitman last year. and the athletic equipment is inadequate.

Dr. Dennett said the Hopkins gift was the beginning of' a drive for $10.000,00. At the same time he declared: i "I trust you will not think me some dire prophet of. disaster when I remind you that the redistribution wealth is well advanced. "It difficult to sce how any considerable fortune' in the next 25 years will be able to withstand transfer taxes." "I feel somewhat concerned." he continued, "lest' in the profound social and economic readjustment incident to this redistribution of wealth the sources of benevolence for all cultural institutions may be exhausted." The college honored nine famous including.

five, presidents of colleges or universities, at today's ceremonies: Dr: Tyler Dennett conon: ferred the degree of, doctor. of laws James Rowland Angell. president of Yale University; Newton Diehl Baker, secretary of war in President Wilson's cabinet; Mildred Helen recently chosen president of Wellesley College; Rev. Harry Emerson Fosdick, pastor of Riverside Church, New York: Karl Taylor Compton, president of Massachusetts. Institute of Technology; Livingston.

Farrand, president of Cornell University; Lotus Delta Coffman, president. of the University of Minnesota; Rufus Matthew Jones. professor of philosophy and religion, Haverford College, and James Rudolph Garfield, secretary of the interior under President Theodore Roosevelt. Exercises at Chapin Hall Since Friday night the college had given itself over to the centenary, and the Jong academic procession of. faculty, alumni and guests across the campus to Chapin Hall, the auditorium building.

and the exercises held there climaxed the program. The final event was All alumni luncheon held at noon Lasell Gymnasium with John C. Jay '01 of New York and Williamstown, president of the graduate society, presiding. Each of the honorary degree recipients. along with President Frederick C.

Ferry. '91, president of Hamilton Colt lege and an alumnus and former dean of Williams, was presented for a brief talk. Dr. Ferry asserted that Mark Hopkins: would have objected strenuously to teachers' oath bills were he alive today. today Mark Hopkins were to return today he would regret the mpparent lack: of religion among young men and deplore.

being compelled to subscrihe to an oath allegiance," Dr. Ferry said. Others who spoke briefly were Presidents James R. Angell of Yale, Mildred McAfee of Wellesley, Livingston Farrand of Cornell, Lotus D. Coffman of the University of Minnesota and Karl Taylor Compton of Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Dr. Harry: Augustus Garfield '85, president of the college from 1908 to 1034 and brother of James R. Garfield, the only Williams alumnus to receive a degree, headed the procession as chief Bruce marshal, McIntyre of with Pittsfield, Sheriff walames in his customary place at the front. The week-end ceremonies had served to recall vividly the leading part played in the progress of Williams by Mark Hopkins, president from 1836 to 1872, and his brother, Albert Hopkins, the scientist. It was to a comparison of the liams of the 19th century with that of today that Dr.

Dennett directed his remarks in his centenary address, delivered before the convocation throng. He sketched in colors at once true and vivid the character of the man of, whom President James A. Garfield said. "The ideal college is one with Mark Hopkins one end of a 10g and a student on the other." Against the background of Williams and all the name meant 100 years ago, Dr. Dennett pictured his conception of the true objective of college education: "We wish these young men to know! a great deal which was unknown to any man 100 years ago.

We must also eral pattern of a education in the counrelate the college education to the gentry in which we live. We must pick upboys at the end of the so-called preparatory period. We must carry them on to the point where they can be fed into the. great hopper of American working life. am not very patient with the plea that any delinquency on the part of the college at this point may be offset by what is roughly called character education.

I do not admit for one moment that there is here an alternative, that we may either make a boy a welleducated boy or we may. make him a good boy. I know nothing more likely to undermine a young man's character than to let him think for a moment. that any virtue under the sun compensates for slip-shod, careless work." Self- -Reliant Men The Hopkins brothers, like the other boys at Williams College in their time, were -reliant men when they entered. the president said.

"They had to be self -reliant men or perish. And they were resourceful." When Albert Hopkins wanted an astronomical laborato- ry he handed together his students, equipped them with crude tools and set off. for East Mountain to quarry, stone. The structure he built is still in daily use and is the oldest extant observatory North America. "Today in the colleges we talk much of liberty," Dr.

Dennett continued. "There was no need to talk of it then. It is the heritage of all self- made, self- reliant 'men. Why, these young men were bathed in liberty from birth. "Mark this: Ideas usually travel from the top down, not from the bottom up.

It was so with the materialism which is now everywhere so much deplored. It began in. the colleges Mark and. universities, and about the time Hopkins was laying down his burden. was it, I fear, with the disrespect for liberty which so prevails today.

A generation or more ago the colleges lost that love of liberty and now, the loss has traveled down to the village street." Dr. Dennett concluded his address with the words: "Having said in passing that the purpose, the duty of the modern college is to give the best education which it is possible to give, I pass on to the other objective which is equal with it. not more, not less. namely. the cultivation of character.

We must take these young men in late adolescence and carry them through four years of increasing self until they are able to stand upon their own feet and to make their way in the world as did Mark and Albert Hopkins 100 years ago. For the material conditions of living. now past. we must find the modern equivalent that our. young men may be self -reliant and resourceful, driven again as were the pioneers by onward-ache.

We must recover that old emotional drive which bred civic sense and social responsibility. And, with our steps solidly planted in the dusty realities, we must teach them to walk, and we must walk with them, with our foreheads touchLing the stars of God." Miss Honkins Gives Home the alumni luncheon President Dennett announced that Miss Susan Hopkins of Williamstown. only surviving daughter of Mark Honkins, had given her home here to the college subject life tenancy and that Mrs. John Hopkins Denison, wife of the late property near Weston Field, the a athphilosopher and writer. has sold her letic ground, to Williams for a nominal figure.

Dr. Denison, who died last winter, was a grandson of the fourth president and author of "Mark Hopkins: A Biography," published last year. The president also revealed that two trustees and one trustee emeritus had mado $100,000 available for the construction of new squash courts. The donors are John P. Wilson.

Definite plans for the courts are not complete although it is possible construction may start hefore the end nt the year.
